Last week in our Lillstreet Throwdown class, Stephanie returned to class after spending some vacation time in Taiwan! Sounds like it was a great trip… and oh, but wait there’s more… she brought back OREOs from Taiwan!!! Crispy little tubes not-quite-filled with OREO cream. Thanks Steph!

Looks like Matthew has been busy in the kitchen making a beautiful batch of cinnamon rolls! They look amazing… especially on that green stamped plate! Thanks for the photo Matthew!

One question though… where’s the frosting???

Looks like my cousin Kim made her Mom’s special JELL-O recipe over the weekend… one we both grew up on & enjoyed for years. A “retro” concoction of lime JELL-O, pineapple, cream cheese, Cool-Whip & marshmallows! Looks especially yummy when served in some handmade pottery bowls. As we all know… homemade food always tastes better in handmade pottery!

Looks like a yummy baked polenta & mushrooms on one of my green stamped plates. A striking combo sent to me by my friend Kristen… kinda wish I had been invited to THAT party!!!

Looks like it was ice cream night for Allison & Michael. Apparently the waffle cone had a hole in the bottom and they needed an “instant” place to save it. Hybrid mug to the rescue!!!

Looks like it’s a yummy “Sundae-Sunday” up in Stevens Point. The ice cream looks amazing, the hot fudge looks delicious & the bowl doesn’t look too shabby either! Thanks for sharing Matthew!

Looks like someone is doing better on their “healthy” resolutions than I am?! Still not a big fan of brussel sprouts… but these are looking a little tastier than normal… must be the bowl?!!! Just sayin’… thanks for sharing Kristy!!!
