Girls Turtle Cake


My sweet girl loves turtles, so I bravely started to decorate her cake when I suddenly remembered the cute wooden turtle we picked up at the craft store. 

 I hot glued the turtle to two wooden skewers and cut them to the depth of my cake.  I poked two green straws into the cake and cut to size, so no splinters got in the cake.  Then I poked the wooden skewers into the straws!

The cake was one box of Betty Crocker baked in two pie pans.  I layered the cakes with a coating of white frosting between the layers.

Then I coated the entire cake with pink frosting.  I piped some green tinted frosting (white frosting+green food coloring) along the edges.  VoilĂ !

I plan on making some of these:

Easy Cheesecake!!!

I'm not even going to take credit for this recipe, but it was easy and decadent! Found at Kraftrecipes.com






Easy Chicken Enchilladas (crock pot)

So easy!!!!  My friend Shelley makes these every Christmas Eve!  :-D

1. Throw frozen chicken breasts and green salsa in the crockpot for 6-8 hours on low. 

2. Add a package of cream cheese.

3. Stir chicken mixture until chicken shreds and cream cheese is mixed in.

4. Roll chicken mixture into corn tortillas and place in baking dish.

5. Cover with cheese and cover dish with foil or oven safe lid.

6. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes.

This was what was left of it, I will get a better pic of it next time, as I'm sure we will be eating this at least bi-weekly.
