Fancy Friday

Some Serious Eye Candy

Calling all sweet teeth and design lovers. 
I'm on a super health kick right now due to finals. So this probably doesn't help me any, but I just cannot help that they are all so beautiful! 
They are the greatest ideas for parties, gatherings, weddings, etc. 
& the Christmas table sets?! Adorable! I must do something similar for my family this year.

p.s. number 32-35 and 84-93 I fancy! 94-103 is also a lavender winter design, oh goodness!

Fancy Friday.

Friday Night Sweet Treat.

Friday's are always perfect for something sweet right?
Since I suffer from a sweet tooth I have to make it healthy most of the time. 
It was cloud so I was craving baked apples today. 

We have no brown sugar or cinnamon. 
I did have butter, sugar, and instant cinnamon and spice oatmeal. 

Mariah baked apples. 
Preheat your oven to 350. 
Cut apple in half and spoon out the core. 
Melt 1 Tbsp. of butter. Mix 2 tbsp. of instant oatmeal, and a tad bit of sugar. 
Add mixture into apples and set in the oven for 30 minutes. 
Vuala. Mariah baked apples. 
Don't forget the coffee. Maybe even add some ice cream.

Oreo Truffles.

You may have seen this on my photography page, but now since I'm using this blog more then ever I thought I would post it here.
They are my favorite treat to make.


OREO TRUFFLES.
Doesn't the sound of that just make you drool?
Yes, it does me too!
I would have kept this my dirty little secret, but I thought I would share the recipe with you.
I'm no baker, that's for sure. So what makes these perfect is they are bake free!
Here is what you will need to make these bit sized yummies.
This is also a wonderful recipe to do right after your Mother cleaned the kitchen!
  1. 1 package of Oreos (16 ounces) 45 Oreos to be exact.
  2. 1 package of cream cheese (8 ounces) & if you're like me, cream cheese makes everything that much better!
  3. Baking chocolate, at least 2 bags.
Take your 45 oreos and crunch them all together, this is a much easier process with a food processor. But WAIT! Leave may 3 cookies out and crunch them on their own, you can sprinkle with them after you have completed the whole process.
Don't you dare steal a cookie.

After your oreos have been smashed to fine crumbs, add in the cream cheese.
To make this easier for yourself, make sure the cream cheese is a little more softened so it does not come out in clumps, you want a dough.
You can soften your cream cheese a bit by warming it up, not by a microwave though. Hold it in your hands for a bit, put the package on the warm ground outside, or if you're like me just stuff it in your pants!
Now you may put your cream cheese in the food processor with the crumbles.
Blend until you have a dough.
Get out a sheet of wax paper or foil.
Now go wash your hands, which you should have done in the first place.
Roll your dough into cute little balls. Not too small though.
If your dough ends up a little runny like mine did, stick them in the fridge for a jiffy to firm them up.
Then go do something productive for a while like cleaning up your mess. Let's not be a slob now!
After they have set for a while, I let mine sit for about 30 minutes.
Melt your chocolate and make sure you have BAKING CHOCOLATE, because if you don't it will be a pain. Mexico does not have baking chocolate so I learned this the hard way.
Once your chocolate is melted pour it all of those suckers!
Once they are coated put them in the fridge and wait an hour no matter how tempting it is to eat them.
Voila! Mine turned out pretty ugly but they are delish!
Beware- these are very sweet so don't forget a glass of milk.
