This is one of our favorite cookies!
They are soft on the inside, but have the crunchy cinnamon/sugar coating!

I have a confession to make… I am a sucker for fresh flowers!
I love them cut and put in vases, I love them out in my yard and garden and I love them in pots and planters!
So when I saw these tulips in the store the other day, I just could not resist! :)
Today I have a few recipes that I posted last year, but they are some of my favorite “Spring” recipes so I thought that it would be fun to share them again here:
This first recipe is my husband’s absolute, most favorite dessert!
This is the one that he requests whenever I ask him what he wants to have for dessert. And this is what he gets every year for Father’s Day!
Today I have my calendar ideas for March!
This was kind of a tricky month with both St. Patrick’s Day and Easter, so I just went with a general spring theme for the calendar and then made two printable magnets-one for St. Patrick’s Day and one for Easter! So you get a double bonus this month!
“Hoppy” Easter from our house to yours!
We had our annual Easter Egg hunt and the kids loved it.
There were tons of eggs to be found.
Throw a fun Easter Egg hunt for your family or neighborhood!
These games and ideas will keep your party HOPPING!
Tips for a Terrific Easter Egg Hunt:
I had a couple of cute little helpers at my house yesterday, so I decided that it would be a good day to make mini donuts. I wanted to try a new kind…Strawberry. So I just kind of made up a recipe, they turned out OK, but I wish that I had added more strawberries or at least some kind of strawberry flavoring. But they got eaten pretty darn fast, so I guess that no one else cared that they didn’t have more strawberry flavor!
I found these fun letters at the Wood Connection before my trip to Arizona. I like that they say “Spring” , so that I can keep them out until May! My daughter and I got together and painted these letters yesterday. (do you like the mess, big chill cup and all) We used the easy paint technique here, that I used for the “Family” letters so I am not going to give a tutorial in this post.
I love these fun papers and the cute design in the letters! Especially the letter “i”. And of course I love the ribbons on some of the letters.
This picture has been enhanced, but I love the fun vibrant colors. I put these fun letters on my kitchen table and every time I walk by I feel like I have a early glimpse of spring right there in my kitchen! It makes me happy. We only use our kitchen table on Sunday when everyone comes over for dinner, so I do not have to move them every time we eat! :)
My daffodils are blooming, my tulips are all up and starting to bloom, my garden is starting to sprout…I think that spring is really going to come!
So what makes you happy for spring?
Here is my new game that my grand kids love to play, this is the Easter version of “Don’t Eat Pete!” It is called Don’t Eat Hoppy! This is a fun game for FHE or for a school class party, (just print multiple game boards), even adults can get in on the fun with this game!
This game board is now available in pdf format in my shop:
