Candy cane bark!

 So today my mom, brother and I started making some of our favorite Christmas bark, for a Christmas cookie swap! The first part of our tradition is digging out the ripped out page of a magazine labeled 2003 LCBO Food and Drink magazine https://www.lcbo.com/lcbo/recipe/peppermint-bark/200306040#.XfKqfdVKFz8, from our Christmas box deep in the basement! After that, we began weighing and measuring the dark chocolate! Then after it's melted in a double boiler drop some peppermint oil in, then spread it out on a tray, leave it out in the freezing front porch to freeze in -20. Then after an hour we took it in and melted the white chocolate added peppermint then spread it over top, added crushed candy cane let it freeze then voila! I love this colorful chocolaty sweet, and making it with my family is all the sweeter!!!

What I've been up to!

Hey! How are you? I am good and have been keeping busy and safe! So I just thought I'd let you know what I’ve been up to! For starters I’ve started a bullet journal! I have been debating it for a while, and finally decided to just do it. The theme I used for May was colourful flowers! Inspired by Amanda RachLee’s bullet journal setups! I have a habit tracker with things like Journal, Vitamins, and Reading! I also have a Mood Tracker, so each day I colour in a flower with a colour from the mood chart, red is the saddest and yellow is the happiest! There is also a weekly spread in which each morning I write down what I want to get done that day! Overall I highly recommend starting one, it’s the perfect way to add creativity to your planning! I have also been working on my felting business. I was originally planning on opening an Etsy store. This time last year I was getting ready for my first ever craft sale. But because of Covid 19, this year it was cancelled. So I thought to ...
