As my contribution to the feast for the Craft Night! Party, I made Apple Nachos. Which, according to the blog I got the idea from, is old news. But I had never heard of them. Added bonus—really easy and tasted AWESOME.

I did not make them quite like the source material suggested (or how most of the results I just found in a search on pinterest made them). These others were more dessert-like, with chocolate chips and such, and I wanted an appetizer.

So, I got me some apples, some apple-dipping caramel, fruit yogurt dip, and stopped at the salad counter for a couple slices of watermelon and a handful of grapes. And here is the result:

apple nachos

yum!

Merry Christmas!

This past Sunday was my drama team’s Christmas party. Since I’m a rather indecisive individual, I made two cakes.

The Red cake is red velvet & white cake in stripes on the inside. Covered in red buttercream, with snowflake sprinkles and chocolate sprinkles.

The Blue cake has a layer of strawberry (purple – I was originally going to add purple onto the design), and a cream cheese flavored layer. Buttercream icing and snow sprinkles.

Yummy chocolate cookies are by the lovely Ashley, whose home we invaded. She’s kinda fabulous.

So my goal is to take some artistic shots next time I bake something pretty. I’m pretty awful at remembering to take pictures of things I make. How sad is that?
