Superbowl Inspiration and Tutorial

Creating a cute Superbowl tablescape is easy and can be inexpensive with just a few items! I downloaded these cute party printables from Catch My Party last week and knew I had to “girl” them up a little…lol…

Thank you 9 to 5 mom for creating these!

We are having a few friends over for the big game!

(Let me put a disclaimer here...we are NEITHER Giants Fans or Patriots Fans, we are Vikings Fans, but since they are playing golf instead of football right now, we are routing for the Patriots, ONLY because the hubster is in a "pool" at work and momma needs a

new pair of shoes...lol)

TIP 1: Mix and Match things...

Took the food tents and some of the other printables..used a toothpick

to insert it...cute way to incorporate the two...both found at Catch My Party

at the link above.

TIP 2: REUSE and RECYCLE

I have used this indoor.outdoor carpet piece for Easter Grass, Football turf,

Baseball turf and more for parties...worth the $ 8.00 I spent on it! REUSE!

TIP 3: Use what you have!

Here is an easy tutorial on making Cray paper pom poms to help fill up the tablescape…

Layer out about 8 layers of your craypaper (only about 6 inches long)

Tie off in the middle...

Cut the ends to cut off so you dont have the creases and then cut up..then you just

carefully separate the sides until you have a pom pom

I tied them to the bottom of these little stands that I have (use them for almost every party)

There you have it...just a cute way to spruce up the Football decor...

Be watching on Monday Morning for our Superbowl Party!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor...
