If it’s too thick, add a bit of milk or vanilla.I have to tell you though, it’s pretty hard to mess up.

Fact: Sugar and butter together in pretty much any combination are going to taste amazing..When everything’s all squished up and combined, cut a little hole (or a bigger one) in the corner of your bags and have fun decorating!.I did rice krispie squares, just cause Kennedy asked me if I would make them more often and here’s the conversation that ensued when she got home from school that day.. Kennedy (upon spying the treats on the counter): What are those?.

Me (triumphant mom, for real this time): Rice krispies!Didn’t you say you wanted me to make them for you more often?.

Kennedy: Yeah, but why are they so magical?.

Do you want your kids to think you’re magical too?I thought a set of eight or so would be a good investment and something I’d probably reuse in one way or another every Easter.

BUT, I really didn’t want to waste any time running all the way back into town just for some nests.I actually don’t really shop all that often, so when I do, it’s kind of a big deal and not something I make time for everyday.

So, I kind of resigned myself to the fact that the nests would have to happen next year, and I’d have to come up with something cute with what I had on hand.And then I had a nest-piphany!.
