Easy to make Waffles!

My daughter loves waffles...  I mean she loves waffles...  I got tired of buying frozen waffles, so I found a recipe somewhere and started making these on the weekends.  I cannot remember who or where I go this recipe from, so if it's yours let me know, so I can give credit where credit is due. These are easy and delicous. 



I was lucky I was able to take a picture!  My daughter was starving! 

What you need:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups warm milk (it does not need to boil, just warm)
• 1/3 cup butter, melted (takes about 1 minute in the microwave)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How to mix:
1. In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and sugar; set aside. Preheat waffle iron to desired temperature.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Stir in the milk, butter and vanilla. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture; beat until blended.
3. Ladle the batter into a preheated waffle iron. Cook the waffles until golden and crisp. Serve immediately, or freeze. This recipe made 6 round waffles.
4. If you freeze them make sure you put them in the toaster to warm up.








Enjoy!

Spruce up a candle!

Have you ever looked at your candles and wanted them to have a little more bling?  Well, I love bling, so I decided to spruce up my candles!  This is really quick and easy!


Here's how to spruce up your candles!

Step 1:  Purchase if you do not have these items already, candle, tacky glue, and diamond dust.


Step 2: Coat your candle with tacky glue I used my finger.  Make sure you cover the entire candle with glue.


Step 3:  Put the diamond dust on a plate and roll your candle in the dust.



Step 3:  Let it dry



Step 4:  You are done!  Now how easy was that?




Step 5:  Enjoy!
