Plum District: Nothing Bundt Cakes!

I am so happy to have the chance to review this sweet company for Plum District!

Nothing Bundt Cakes is the cutest little bakery in Costa Mesa, with the best little treats!

From full size bundt cakes, to bundtlets and bundtinis,

you'll be sure to find something for every occasion!

We were lucky enough to get a 10" lemon bundt!

It was packaged so lovely, with little flags and cellophane to keep it fresh and pretty!

The frosting looked divine, their traditional cream cheese buttercream, YUM!!

We sliced it up and easily fed 7 people with 1/4 of the cake.

This cake will feed a crowd!

It was moist and sweet, and the adults and children both loved it!

If you have an occasion coming up,

 be sure to check out Nothing Bundt Cakes in Costa Mesa!

I LOVE PIZZA!!

So I was super happy to eat at Lamppost Pizza in West Yorba Linda!

We took some friends in the neighborhood and had a great time!

The kids had a blast playing in the arcade section!

We were surrounded by team parties and other fun groups of people.

Clearly this was the place to be for great food and fun!

The Plum District Lamppost Pizza Deal was perfect

for our order of one large cheese pizza and one large pepperoni pizza!

Plum District: Gingerbread House Decorating at Powell's Sweet Shoppe!

This week we went to Powell's Sweet Shop in Laguna Niguel!

It was quite a "TREAT" for the senses!

The sweet smell is incredible, the displays of candy are so fun, and we had the pleasure of tasting too!

Plum District was running a deal to make 2 Gingerbread Houses for the price of one!

My daughter had been asking to make one, and both the kids were so excited!

Powell's invited us into their Party Room, where they hold special events and incredible birthday parties!

It was like Candy Land come alive!

The kids were excited to dig in to all that yummy sweetness!

We received a graham cracker house for each child. My husband was excited, because it was already assembled for us!

The frosting was tasty...

And the bag of candies was so cute!

They stuck candy all over their houses and still took so much home!

The sweet employees popped popcorn for us, which made my son very happy, and offered us hot cocoa, cider, or water!

We had so much fun, thanks Powell's!

PLUM DISTRICT

LA - LA - LOLLIPOP!

Last week I went fabric shopping to make something fun for my daughter for Christmas!

I was almost too late!

The Christmas fabric was seriously picked over,

but I found this fun peppermint print!

I know you saw it already on the HO HO Hotpads,

 but here's another fun idea!

Cut a 1" strip of your fabric about 2 yards long.

Grab a piece of felt big enough for your LA LA Lollipop!

It doesn't have to match, but because I'm so OCD, mine does. :)

Fold your fabric strip in half and begin sewing it down in the middle of your felt square.

Keep folding and twisting your fabric strip and stitching it down, round and round!

Bigger and Bigger!!

Tuck the end and sew it down to make your circle pretty.

Don't worry if your felt is a little puckery, like mine. :)

Trim your felt just under your LA LA Lollipop!

Iron a piece of interfacing on the underside of your shirt as big as your design.

Pin yourLA LA Lollipop and ric-rac handle to the front of your shirt, over the interfacing,

Sew the ric-rac down first and then stitch your LA LA lollipop onto your shirt in circles.

Backside: Not perfect, and it doesn't matter!

Make a small bow and stitch it on by hand or machine.

LA LA Lollipop!!

I'm a little in love with her and her outfit. :)

You know we had to twirl!

I love that she can wear it with jeans too or her black shirt,

and not even just for Christmas!

Sweet!

XOXO
