Making a farm & a giveaway

Lately I have been making bits and pieces of a farm set…

Some horses, ducks and a pig *smile*

 
    All to go with a knitted farm… 

 And most recently I made some scarecrows *smile*

So when my lovely friend Aleta from Hinterland Mama asked…
….whether I would like to share something with our readers

I knew just what I’d like to share *smile*

 

 And this lucky scarecrow has a lovely handcrafted wool felt veggie plot to watch over…
…complete with teensy tiny little vegetables

Made by the talented and lovely Aleta…
And in case you haven’t ‘met’…

Aleta and her lucky family live in the Hinterland region of the Sunshine Coast in Australia. With her partner and their two gorgeous little boys, she encourages a creative & healthy home… Writing her blog to record and share their journey
With love and respect for our wonderful planet, I endeavour to eat, grow, shop and create as econ-consciously as I am able. Come along and visit Hinterland Mama to discover children’s activities, new recipes and plenty of creativity and craft ღ
So for your chance to win this unique Christmas gift ~ pop on over to Hinterland Mama!

AND THE WINNER IS… Ronnie from Homemade Happy

Good luck,

Chocolate spiders

Have I mentioned our love of…
…all things containing chocolate and peanut butter?
Well Chocolate Spiders fit this bill nicely, with the added fun of noodle crunch!
My brothers and I used to make these all the time…
…but I hadn’t made them for a good while 
{6 months or so *wink*}
When I was reminded of their tasty goodness by Hublet over at Taming the Goblin

Chocolate Spiders are super easy to make
But… BE WARNED… the are super moreish!
moreish (informal, of food) Causing one to want to have more 
Firstly, melt your chocolate & peanut butter in the microwave
Before mixing the noodles through
Next place spiders on foil tray for easy removal later 
And for a bit of fun we added some chocolate eyes
{because you can never have too much chocolate!}

Then we popped them in the fridge for as long as we could resist them!
This cluster of spiders did not last long *smile*

Happy baking,
Kelly
