I like Whoppers. I like to nibble off all the chocolate and save up a row of just malt and then eat them all at once.

I have seen Strawberry Milkshake Whoppers in the stores before.

Now I hear there are REECES PEANUT BUTTER WHOPPERS. Guuuuhhhhh. Peanut butter and malt? Be still my beating heart.

Just one problem. I am reading about them on blogs but I can't find them anywhere!

I made Candy Bar Cozies for my friends for Valentine's Day.

They were pretty quick to make, they are felt envelopes with hearts and buttons.

I like mixing and matching the colors of felt and buttons.

Each cozy has a yummy bar of dark chocolate tucked away inside.

You can see more pictures of this project and how I made them on my Project Gallery.

I am really excited about this project I created for work. It's a picture frame made from an empty Valentine's Day candy box.

Now you can reuse your heart shaped candy boxes instead of throwing them out. Reduce, reuse and recycle!

It's just the top and bottom of the box glued together with an easel cut in the back for it to sit up on.

Here is a close up shot of the back easel configuration.

You can see more pictures and detailed instructions here. (note: I have added the extra support arm you see above since I wrote up those instructions)

I blogged about it on 1000 Words too.

I ate a lot of chocolate while making these frames by the way.

I am so lucky that I get to do stuff I enjoy at work. I just designed these Valentine's Day Candy Bar Wrappers for the project center.

Aaron had no idea he was going to be the cover boy for all the candy wrappers.

There are three different wrappers that you can download. They all have funny little sayings on them.

You can either open the pdf's up in a photo editing tool and add your pictures or print them out as is and cut out the hearts and place your picture behind the cutout.

Go here to download the wrappers and see more detailed instructions.

Aaron got me two of these little chocolate cats at Beacon Hill Chocolates when he was in Boston. I just found that our local Parkleigh carries them too. Aren't they the cutest? They had toffee and chocolate inside. Stewie thought it was barbaric.

pez

The other night Aaron came home with a little container of mini pez with a Norman Rockwell design on it. The US PEZ website is under construction but I think they are for the 80th anniversary of PEZ.

We also found these Jone's Soda Carbonated Candies at a checkout line. They are fizzy... mmmm... I love fizzy candy.

As soon as I got off my redeye flight from San Fran today, I repacked my bags to go home to PA for Easter this weekend.

It's been tough planning for Easter when I have been gone for two weeks. I haven't gotten to decorate the house or color eggs. I should have at least gone online and ordered these Vosges chocolate bunnies. I love Vosges chocolate and these bunnies are too cute.

The descriptions for the different flavors are hilarious...

"Red Fire - Volcano Rabbit (Romerolagus diazi) Hops in the pine forests near the foothills of the Popocatepetl volcanoes. Rub my belly and you'll feel my spice, Ancho and Chipotle chillies, Ceylon cinnamon, and dark chocolate. Ahreeba, Ahreeba!!"

On Planet M, you can make an M&M that looks like you. Then you can send postcards with your M&M character or have it star in a movie or play in a game.

What is funny is how much my M&M actually looks like me. Or maybe I just really look like an M&M.
