Domestic Doings
It has been awhile since I have posted a Domestic Doings post. It has been a little crazy around here with our spring break trip and then I caught a cold that lasted a week. Finally we are getting back to normal around here. So, here are a few of the domestic things I have done in the last month or so.
I took down my Valentine's mantle and put up this one for St. Patrick's day. I'm not sure why, but I have always liked this mantle a little more than my other holiday ones.
The other day I took down the St. Patrick's day decor and put up this Spring mantle. I am not really a fan of this one, but it will do for now.
One thing I am a fan of, is my new tulip wreath for Spring! Don't you love it?!?!
I think it is so pretty and perfect for this time of year. I will include an affiliate link to it at the end of the post.
On the cooking side of things, I have been working on a recipe for the best caramel popcorn. Recipe coming soon!
I also tried my Maraschino Cherry Bars with a cherry glaze instead of the icing. I think it was a slight improvement, but still a little too sweet. I will try something else the next time I make them and see if we can hit the jackpot.
I am also working on a recipe for shortbread toffee bars. I am almost there. Fingers crossed that the next one will be the one.
Amongst the many many dinners I have made, I finally made my Slow-Cooker Pork Carnitas again. I need to make these more often. My whole family, and everyone else I have ever made them for, absolutely loves them!! They are definitely going to be on the menu at our house again soon.
