I like to give a little something on St. Patrick's Day
to Brady's teacher. Most of you know...my favorite
thing to give is something edible. We've been really busy...so
my treat for Mrs. Everly was a quick and easy one. I dipped oreos
in chocolate and added clover sprinkles.
To make them look better, take a pairing knife around the
edges after they dry.
I love using clipart to make tags. I only wish I knew how to
make them printable so that I could share them on my blog.
Maybe someday I will figure that out!
I also made basketball lollipops this afternoon.
Brady's last basketball game is on Saturday and so is his
birthday...so I thought he could pass them out to his team.
I mixed red and orange chocolate together to try and get more
of a basketball color. At one time I had over 100 molds. I've gotten
rid of some the last few years...not much time to make candy anymore!
I hope everyone has a Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Those look really yummy and festive. I think it is so nice to go the extra mile and make things like this. You are always so thoughtful!
Great idea!!
You have such cute ideas and you're so crafty!
The teacher is sooooo lucky!
How cute! I hadn't thought of that! Very fun idea!
So cute - I'm totally with you on the printables. I do mine in Word - but there has to be an easy way to save and share? When you figure it out - let me know. His teacher is going to love them - yum
I LOVE those basketball lollipops!! You always come up with good stuff :)
I bet when the teacher finds out Brady will be their student they do a happy dance!!!
You are awesome!
Have a pretty day!

Goodness, could I be Brady's teacher!?!?!:)
Those look oh so yummy.
Haven't had Oreos in awhile, and dipped in chocolate sounds even better.
What a sweet sweet mommy you are
Have a happy day
What great ideas - I also love to give food as a gift. And of course, I love to get food as a gift! Lucky teacher - and I bet your son felt so good giving her that little gift. Happy St. Patty's Day to you!
Catching up with you . ..
If I taught at Brady's school, I would BEG to be his teacher every year, just so I could get your treats. Yum!
I read that same post by Melissa and did the same trick. Your lights look great.
But my main comment is this: That picture of you and hubby--you are so cute! Love love love your hair.
I love it when you post about something you made/baked. The oreos are so pretty and I'm sure they taste delicious! :) The lollipops look fantastic. They turned out great!
Happy early birthday to Brady!
Kerri, thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I have to say that I really enjoyed your post about the cookies..so creative and what a lucky teacher! Your header is just too cute and also funny! Love the hat! I had to read past posts and I see you are also thrifty, a great decorator and smart too because the paint in the kitchen is the same as mine...and I had to live with it for a bit before deciding that I really do like it! I'm a follower now, so I'm looking forward to more fun posts!
You are the mom I hope to be!!!
You are awesome. :)
Wow, I'd say the baseketball color turned out perfectly!

These are just delightful!!

You are the coolest mom EVER! I would have been blown away if a student brought me those yummy treats. For St Patrick's Day. I was lucky if I got a Christmas gift when I taught.
Oh, and that cute scalloped edge on the photo? Just discovered it on a super new easy program called Lo-Fi. It's a download. Not free, but cheap. You can do all kinds of fun things with it. When I discovered that scalloped border I had to buy it. :) I'm a sucker for that kind of thing.
I love them both!! Yummy and cute!! (not that I can eat oreos anymore... sniff... sob... ) =) Have you ever made Cake pops?? they are a lot of work... but SO fun... and a huge hit with all ages!! =)
