Make a Ritz sandwich (I used their holiday snowflake ones this time) with peanut butter. Dip in white melting chocolate (I like the melting chocolate bars from Ghirardelli that you can buy at Sam's), place on wax paper and add sprinkles. Let sit until chocolate has hardened.

Some friends and I do a preschool co-op together. I teach twice a week every 4 weeks. The kids love the social interaction and it is so fun to plan activities for them! I recently did a "Nativity" theme. The highlight for the kids seemed to be playing with all of the different nativity sets that we have. And we have a lot of them! Some homemade, some not.
We even made a little Nativity for them to each bring home. It was so easy to do! If you have a cricut, just cut everything out from the Paperdoll cartridge. If you don't have a cricut, you can buy nativity stickers from Oriental trading (by the dozen) or the craft store and have the children arrange them on a piece of brown cardstock that has been cut into a stable type shape.

I am just thrilled to be able to show you my home office/craft room/guest room. Yep, it has a lot of functions. Originally this room was going to be our guest room. Complete with a full size bed and everything my grandmother would need when she came to stay with us on occasion. That was one of the things we looked forward to when we found out we'd be moving back to California. She passed away just a couple of months after we moved here and it was heart breaking to think that we wouldn't have weekend visits from her.We don't have family come see us often, so I decided to not buy a bed, but create a space with room for a queen size air mattress when needed. I placed the furniture against the walls and will pull out the ottoman box under the window when we use the Aerobed air mattress. There is plenty of clearance in front and space in front of the closet and walking space around the sides. It isn't a very roomy guest room, but we had to maximize the functions and prioritize in this small space.
