Red Velvet Triffle

Kinda good! I will share this recipe with you. It is one my mother-in-law used to make. Only her recipe was pound cake and vanilla pudding. And that is really good. But I decided to try a different combination and I must say - yum!

Here is the easy recipe:

One Red Velvet cake mix - Mix and bake as directed on the box.

Three boxes of Cream Cheese Pudding - Mix according to directions on the box.

One large carton of whipped cream.

Mix and bake Red Velvet cake mix in 9X12 pan. Let cool. Cut cake in square pieces. Mix pudding, one box at a time.

Place several pieces of cake in bottom of triffle bowl. Pour one box of mixed pudding on top of the cake. Next put a layer of whipped topping. Then do another layer of cake, another mixed box of pudding, more whipped topping. Do three layers of each - cake, pudding, and ending in whipped topping. Refridgerate over night.

So we went to several thrift stores looking for the perfect sized canvas picture and after only two stops - found it! This is the canvas with the letters I stuck on it and I began there in the bottom corner to paint it a dark brown. The canvas is a golden with thin trees and some words in cursive in a light brown. As you see, I was using a paint brush, but I changed to a small roller. It worked much much better. Completely painted the top and the sides of the canvas a brown color. Then I let it dry - probably about 30 minutes. Then pealed off the letters! Here is the finished product: And it's true. I did tell on her - it was for her own good. :)

From Twigs to Trees!

OK, girlfriends, I'm ready to show you what I have been working on for weeks and weeks. I told you I was working on something for two special people - it is done! Let me tell you who, what, when, where, and why. For as long as I can remember I have given my girls a "Happy December" present. I just love the Christmas season so much that I am ready to begin the celebration. So on December 1 I would have a gift for my kids. They might come home from school and find a Christmas shirt on their bed or I would present them with Christmas socks or a Christmas trinket, maybe cookie cutters or sticker book. Just something. For fun! This year I made: Grapevine Christmas trees!!!! I had lots of help! My sister, Nancy, Mark, and Hank all helped me gather the vines. Poor Hank got poison twice from helping me find vines! Then I wrapped the vines around a tomato cage using the vines and thin wire. ...
