If you are looking for a really delicious and easy recipe to take to parties this summer, then this is the one for you. I made these yesterday to take to a pool party and they were yummy!

It's long enough to hold lots of goodies. :) Recipe: 1/2 cup ricotta cheese 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed 1 small zucchini or yellow squash, cut into 3-inch matchstick-thin strips 1 small red pepper, cut into 3-inch matchstick-thin strips Directions: Heat the oven to 400°F.

I am a part-time knitter for sure. And I have the attention span of a gnat when it comes to my knitting projects. If it's not a gift and I don't have a deadline, it can linger on for months. But that doesn't stop me from buying more yarn. :O So, as you can imagine, I have a yarn stash that has gotten out of control over the last few months. The little basket that I bought to house my yarn is beyond overflowing. It is littered with bags and bags of unfinished projects and new yarn. I have been on the hunt for a lidded basket that doesn't look like a laundry basket. It is has been harder than I thought. Then today while I was perusing the aisles of AC Moore for wooden letters, I saw a big but not too big basket that would work and it was 50% off. Well, when I got to the register, it ended up being $5.00! The original price was $14.99. I was stoked over the bargain even though I had to climb the shelves myself to get it.

This year I wanted to do something really special for my father and my husband this Father's Day. So, I came up with this inexspensive photo idea. I hit Michael's today armed with a 50% coupon for 1 regular priced item and a 20% off my total order one. I picked up unfinished wood letters for $1.99 each and a heart for 99 cents. The paint was 2 for $1.00. I always have foam brushes so no cost there. And I picked up a 3 photo black frame on super sale at Kohl's for under $10.00 and a wood desk frame on clearance for $6.99 at Michael's. My photos were even 25% off after I used a special Father's Day coupon code for CVS. My supplies: Here they are painted: The photos: The frames: As soon as I pick up the photos from CVS, I'll share the finished product. The photos should be ready in 30 minutes. :)
