Celebration Dresses

I made this series of dresses for some little girl's celebrating their first birthday (I got this idea from a friend, and had to try it out). Underneath are fabrics that peak out as they wear the dresses, I've flipped the bottom up in the second picture to show the fabric below. In cooler weather these can worn with little blouses underneath.

Cheesecake Pops

I've seen these all over the web lately. There was apparently a competition a month or so back. There are a lot of great instructions on making the pops. I just took a few slices of cheesecake I bought at the store, and I scooped the pieces into balls. I even included the crust (I've seen where some people rolled the balls in graham crackers). I got 7 pops out of two slices of cheesecake. After I formed the balls, and inserted the sticks, I put them in the freezer for about an hour before rolling them in melted chocolate, and sprinkling them with toppings of my choice.

Pie Pops

Oh....so yummy. I got this idea from Bakerella's Blog, she borrowed it from another blog....aren't blogs fabulous? All the instructions are on her blog, but I did take the advice of previous testers and roll the dough really thin (I got 12 pops out of one pie round), and I added two cherries to each pie to make it a little more heavy on the filling, along with some cornstarch to the filling to make it a little thicker. I also baked it at 350 for a little longer (15-20 minute4s), and didn't cover the sticks with foil, and all seemed well. The only other addition I made was sprinkling the egg washed pops with a little sugar, and I loved that additional sweetness.
