Experimenting with Meringue

Valentine Cupcakes

My daughter loves making cupcakes.  She wanted to make them every weekend but I told her we'd get too fat, maybe every other weekend.  Here's a simple trick to decorate your valentine's cupcake.  She has some great tips too.




My favorite part of this cupcake is that it was a chocolate cream filled cupcake, so check out how to make a cream filled cupcake.

Origami Helicopter

A fun activity to keep the kids busy for an hour, hopefully more.  Have them make these in different colors and see if color affects speed, lol.  Try different sizes, Have contests like, who has the fastest one, who can hit a target.  Have fun.

A modified Eton's Mess - we love this recipe, meringue, berries and whipped cream

No Snow, No Problem

No snow, no problem, enjoy a southern snowball fight :)  So much fun to play with your family.  Great for little kids because it's so much softer then snow.
