Lazy Day Choco Chip Cookie for Moi

Did you ever have that craving, where you just want something good, and you go through your cupboards and fridges and find nothing good, so you go through them again but with lower expectations? For me, happens all the time! I call it "The-Craving-That-can't be-Fed". So, one day I was on StumbleUpon, and I stumbled upon a recipe for a cookie for one!  And I was like "They make those?". Well turns out they do. So obviously I made one! Don't it look yummy?

And you might ask how, well I'll show you....but you gotta pay attention though..it's just rude if you don't...

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp. unsalted butter (softened) or margarine (doesn't really matter)
• 2 tbsp. sugar
• 2 tbsp. brown sugar
• 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
• 5 tbsp. all-purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 cup (or a handful) of yummy chocolate chips

Add your flour, sugar, brown sugar and baking soda in a small ramekin or a 2-cup bowl (whatever that is..)

  Add butter and vanilla....

                           ......and add your eggs and mix!

Add the best thing ever: CHOCOLATE CHIPS!

Don't that look purtty? NO! IT LOOKS LIKE IT SHOULD BE IN MY TUMMY!

Guess what? You're done! Wasn't that easy? Now....TO THE MICROWAVE!

If you look real close, you can make out the ramekins, I would too, but it's too much work..

Oh-my-something....

                             

THAT LOOKS AWESOME!

 And it goes amazing with milk, you know, the juice of a cow.....you know what, I'm just going to call it milk.

*sigh It's the last bite...I must savour it! And I did!!                       

   :( That sad moment when you finish something good...and then realize that you now have to wash the dish.

Well enjoy making this beauty! I know I enjoyed eating it!

Oh yeah! And may the Craft be with you! I guess in this case, I should say...."May the cookie be in your tummy"?, I don't know. Just make it.

Back-2-School Locker Accessories!!

School's back!! And for me, I'm going to middle school..and I don't want to go there, at all. The only thing that'll make me get up from my bed on Sept. 4th, and go to school (in my ugly uniform) is my locker and my friends. And it's not like I can decorate my friends, so I'll just settle for the good ol' locker! And buying locker items at the stores can be boring and down-right expensive! So...being my crafty little self, I thought I'd make them! Many kids are getting lockers this year, so let's make your kids' or your locker the unique one! It's craft time!

     

I came across this on a fantastic blog called Sassy Style Redesign!

Now..we need to get our materials! To the d$llarstore! Three cheers for the dollarstore for having everything! Hip-hip, DOLLARS! Hip-hip, DOLLARS! Hip-hip, DOLLARS! $$ 

     

Just your basic needs:

• Emergency pencils, pens, erasers..
• Notepad
• Gum (for those days when mom packs tuna)
• Kleenex 
• Hairbandz (you never know..)
• Magnets - to hang my millions of pics of my fancied British celebs (1D) 
• and everything else in the picture...   

         

Eraser+hot glue+magnet=Adorable eraser magnets! And....washi tape+mirror+me=out of control washi-fied mirror! 

   

    

Now of course we need a holder for our pencils, now don't we? So let's take some ordinary cups and some pretty little tapes and make the best pencil holder ever! Be creative and use many little ones, instead of using one or two!

 You can also use a wire mesh pencil holder (obviously it can be bought at the dollar store) 

and you can craftify them up with tiny tissue flowers!

     Tutorial here.

      

Now doesn't everyone have an old frame, just lying around....well I don't. So on my trip to the dollar store, I saw a little frame and thought, "This could be useful, if not, I'll just stuff a picture inside"!

And if you have (spray) paint, oh you'll love this! And get a foam core board or cork board (dollar store, man do I love that store!) and put it inside the coloured frame! 

And with the help of push pins, we have our very own pin board thingy! (This is the part where you clap)..

 Cute, huh?

      Every kid needs one!

Now if your like me, you'll make a kit ONLY filled with chocolate! It's the only thing I need to survive middle school! TRUST ME.

 

And ALL these SIMPLE and CHEAP ideas, are so useful, and adorable! After I made a few of these I literally said "HOLY CRAFT! I love it!" Holy craft..now where have I heard that? Hmmmm...well it sounds kinda funny, maybe I should make that my little catchphrase!

HOLY CRAFT!!

Now that I have my locker problem solved....

I need to get my middle school problem solved......

JUST MY LUCK! There isn't a solution! Oh well..

And May the CRAFT be with you!
