How freakin CooL is this?
OPI
has a new collection out,
The MuPPeT Collection!

This is my first purchase 
~ Meep Meep Meep



based on Beaker, 
one of our faves 
in this Household!








This polish is a gorgeous deep Fuschia 
with the shimmeriest golden and pinkish GLiTTeR.
Fine fine GLiTTer,that enhances 
both the CoLoR and Application. 
This polish goes on so verra smoothly 
with Fantastic coverage.
The first finger is 1 coat
the others are 2.
And that's all you need.


Animal~istic is on my list
{I'm thinking it would be a great February color}
Many of the colors 
were sold out already 
so I didn't get to try them...
but you can bet I'll be keeping my eye out for them!

Deer Revamp for Fall






 Remember that Clark Griswold Big Ass Haul of  Decor 
we were given by my mother in law a few years ago?
She had these reindeer that were no longer mechanical but lovely just the same.
Lightbulb.
Revamp them and even use them for different holidays!
So, I did.

Lemon Lemon Loaf from BAKED



O.

M.
G.




 
This loaf cake is Super~CaLa.
If you, like, love, Lemon like I do, then this recipe is for You.

It's from BAKED, a boOk I was turned on to by a BettieBlogger.
I checked it out from my local library and this is the first recipe I tried.

To some the recipe may look complicated, but it really isn't.
Especially if you're organized.




This is not for the calorie concious,
this is for the TasTe Concious~
oh, heLL Yes.








Here's some tips:

Zest your Lemons first.



Trace the bottom of your pan onto the Parchment PaPer,
cut,
grease pans,
lay PaPer,
grease paper,
set aside.






Yes, that is 4 sticks of BuTTer.

butt~ah.
Mix up dry ingredients and set aside.
Then mix your wet ingredients
in food processor.
Blend, Fold, Fill....

I used my Mandolin Slicer to thinly slice some Lemons
to layer on a couple of Loaves.

I couldn't stop eating the batter...










The makings of Lemon Syrup and Lemon Icing Glaze...
Verra easy.
For the Icing Glaze,
the recipe said 4 to 6 tbls. Lemon Juice
I ended up using 6 and it was a bit much tartiness.
I would go with 4.


These trusty Weapons of Mass Eatery
made the job easy and oh so smooth.

When baking, I set the timer for 30 minutes {second round}
and thought they might need 5 more minutes.



Next time, I will take them out at 30 min.
The extra time made for a crusty crust..
the less time will most likely give me the moister crust.


Let them eat Loaf.

Next up,
I really want to try the White Out Cake.
Maybe for the Weeblette's up~coming birthday.
