Posted on May 24, 2010 by Christina I wish I could say that these cupcake wrappers made from paper doilies were my very own idea. I wish I could say that I was the genius behind this DIY brilliance. I discovered these cupcake wrappers over here. I asked Brittany over at Pink Peacock Paperie to whip me up a template for the cupcake wrappers. I was amazed at how easy they were to make and how pretty they looked. Here is the free cupcake wrapper template download.

Inspirami - RECEPT: Världens godaste chokladrutor Det här är det absolut godaste receptet jag vet på chokladrutor, jag vet inte var jag har fått det från men jag har haft det uppskrivet hur länge som helst. Jag tänkte att jag skulle åka och hälsa på på jobbet i veckan, det känns som att det var hur länge sen som helst som jag var där sist så jag tänkte ta med mig lite fika och vad passar väl bättre än den här. Det är också gott att ha i lite hackade nötter och/eller hackad coklad om man vill variera lite. Den är god som den är men man kan ju lyxa till det lite glass också om man vill.

Sky High Lemon Meringue Pie Lemon meringue pie is probably one of my favorite desserts. I just love it! And although it might seem like a spring/summer thing, I totally think a little citrus during these cold months helps keep the winter blues away. But I love the bright, pop of citrus flavor any time of year. I used to find meringue-topped pies really difficult. Sky High Lemon Meringue Pie For the filling:3/4 cup sugar5 tablespoons cake flour3 tablespoons corn starch1/4 teaspoon salt1 1/2 cups water1/2 cup lemon + lime juice*zest from 1 lemon3 egg yolks For the meringue:12 egg whites1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar1/2 teaspoon corn starch (this helps keep the meringue a little drier, to avoid weeping)6 tablespoons sugar *Note: I like to use 1-2 lemons and half a lime for the juice. First make the meringue. In a glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer, beat egg whites on high until foamy. Now on to the filling and pie crust. To keep lumps out of your filling, start by sifting together the cake flour and corn starch.

DIY Vintage Framed Chalkboard Signs Lemonade anyone? A few months backs, I ordered some vintage frames off of Etsy for a wedding project I had in mind. However, once the frames arrived I didn’t quite see them working the way I had originally envisioned. Stumped on what to do with them, the fabulous Apb suggested turning them into chalkboard signs to use at our wedding. Genius, right? Why didn’t I think of that? So we asked my neighbor Matt, to cut us some wood inserts that would fit in each of the 5 different sized frames. You want to make sure you have the following supplies as well; your inserts and frames of course, regular old chalk to write messages on your signs, scissors to trim the ribbon if you plan to add ribbon to your frames to hang them, glue to adhere the inserts to the backs on the frames, a screwdriver to remove any nails or hooks inserted in the back of the frames, and last but not least chalkboard paint.

- Man märker så tydligt att vi bor i ett väldigt avlångt land när man kikar på alla väderrapporter som avges på sociala medier. Alltså de när användaren antingen jublar över solsken eller gråter över regnskurar och grå himmel. Därför vet jag inte hur vädret ser ut hos er idag men trots att jag hade hoppats på fika ute på altanen så har solen inte visat sig alls här hos mig. Det är sånt man får ta såklart och just den smällen blir en aning lite lättare om man har en god kaka som står och blir gyllenbrun i ugnen. Den här upp och ner-kakan är gjord på en god och saftig sockerkaksgrund men eftersom jag av någon anledning hade en skvätt saffransarom i skafferiet fick även den åka ned i receptet. Upp och ner-kaka med rabarber och vinbär 200 g smör 2,5 dl socker 3 ägg 4 dl vetemjöl 1 tsk bakpulver 2 tsk vaniljpulver/vaniljsocker valfria bär eller frukter Sätt ugnen på 175 grader och smörj en springform med smör och pudra den sen med vetemjöl.

- Ja, alltså jag och citron. Det är en never ending kärlekshistoria tror jag minsann. Skulle kunna smaksätta nästan allt med denna fantastiska lilla gula frukt. Sen ska jag inte sticka under stol med att jag dessutom är ordentligt svag för kakor och fika också. Just den här kakan har två hemligheter som gör att jag vågar utnämna den till världens godaste citronkaka. Världens godaste citronkaka 6,5 dl mjöl 2,5 tsk bakpulver 1 krm salt 5,5 dl socker 1,5 tsk vaniljsocker 6 rumstempererade ägg 1,5 dl vispgrädde skal från 2 citroner 15 msk smält och avsvalnat smör (vet ej hur jag ska omvandla det här måttet men jag tror att det är ungefär 100 g) 0,75 dl vatten 1 dl socker saften från 2 citroner Börja med att ta fram äggen så att de håller rumstemperatur och passa samtidigt på att smälta smöret så att det hinner svalna. Blanda ihop mjöl, salt och bakpulver i en skål och ställ den åt sidan. Koka upp vatten, socker och citronsaft till såsen och stick sedan små hål i kakan.

Tutorial: Vintage-looking painted sign from salvaged wood Today I have a little tutorial for you. I'm going to show you how to (easily!) make these sweet wooden signs. You will need: piece of salvaged wood upholstery tacks or short nails (optional) hammer acrylic paint (background color) black acrylic paint (or other color to fill in letters) large paint brush small paint brushink jet printer twine Sharpie Marker or other dull, rounded tool This project started with a pile of cedar fence pieces that we've had sitting in our backyard for ages. I loved how grey and weathered they had become from sitting outside. Next, distress the wood to your liking. Next, choose your paint. (I wasn't really sure if I was going to be doing a tutorial for this or not until I was finished, so I'm afraid I'm missing a few photos for some of the steps. After you've properly dented and nicked your piece of wood to perfection and added your tacks or nails, take your large , dry paint brush and get a little paint on it. P.S.
