Christmas Cheers and yummy treat


 
I wanted to wish all of my followers a very Merry Christmas!
 
 
I also wanted to share with you an easy holiday treat for neighbors, co-workers, or family. Get a bag of mini Rolos, swirly pretzels, and pecans. Place the pretzels on the pan, then put a Rolo on top of each pretzel. I put my pecans on before to bake with the pretzels. You could actually wait until you take the pan out of the oven, then place the pecans quickly on top of the chocolate while it is still soft. Set your oven at 300 degrees, then bake them for 3 to 4 minutes.
 
 
 
 
Take them out of the oven, then let them cool for about an hour. Once they a cool you can place them in a treat bag to give as a gift. Simple, easy and yummy! The sweet and salty combination are great.

Abstract painting to functional art


Several years ago I decided to make my original work into a clock to sell at shows and in my Etsy shop. I made this abstract painting many years ago. I took a picture of it, then cropped it.




Then I digitally add numbers to the image to make it into a functional art clock.
