Enjoying President's Day at home...

So it's President's Day and it's a glorious one because I get paid to sit at home. That's the glory of working at a bank. :) So for all those as bored as I am, I thought I would share a couple of ideas for those looking to make some Presidential treats.

Jelly Bean Pods!

Inspired by Ronald Reagan who was known for munching on jelly beans. Hand these out to the little ones and they can rip them open and find yummy goodies!

Check out the tutorial

Jones Soda Ice Cream Floats

 Buy some stripy paper straws to add 'the touch'

Buy some awesome red & blue sodas

Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream into vintage glasses and you've got your presidential float.

Not the average day...

So this morning I woke up feeling like someone had ran over my head with a semi. Had to call the bossinator and make it a 'sick day'. Ick. But after staying in bed till 4, I woke up with a genius idea! I know, I guess these things just come to me in my sleep or something. Actually, I was browsing through some people's pet photos and thought, "Why not pet collar coats?" So this idea has really excited me and I know its probably not excited Frodo. The plan is to crochet or sew a cover for dog collars that can be for holidays or seasonal. So I've got to hurry and make some for Valentine's Day! This is a must! Frodo has to be the first bischon with a red felted collar and hearts around his neck. :) I will post the finished product soon!!
