Shower Curtain Bracelets


Made some of these bad boys for my niece for Christmas this year.
Super easy. All you need is:
plastic shower curtain rings
ribbon -about half an inch wide [1 roll will make TONS]
hot glue gun
scissors

put a dot of glue on the end of the ring.
put the ribbon on it.
wrap the ribbon around the ring [be careful to not get tangled]
at the other end, glue the ribbon down and cut.

to hide the middle piece wrap and glue that as well then add a bow

TA DAH

I made about 12 of these with 4 different colors and never ran out of ribbon!

Apple Pancake


Ingredients:
Sliced apples
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon (we just use two shakes of our cinnamon shaker)
3 Tablespoons butter melted (If it is not melted you can just toss it in the pie pan while the oven is preheating--that is what we did)
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup milk
3 eggs


Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Place the brown sugar, cinnamon, apples, and butter in your pie pan and bake in the oven until your apples are soft. This takes about 3 to 5 minutes

While your apples are cooking place the flour, milk and eggs in a bowl and beat with a hand mixer. If you want you can also put all these ingredients in a blender and mix.


When apples are warm and soft, add the rest of the ingredients to your pie pan and bake in your oven for 15 minutes.


Cut up like a pie and serve with warm syrup or powdered sugar and lemon juice.
