Fun Stuff to Do - FOOD


Happy Thursday!  There are so many helpful blogs and posts about these days that I thought I would share some of my favorite ones about food this week.   But not just any food, fun foods!

Here goes:

Homemade Pixie Sticks

Pixie Sticks were a staple of my childhood summer days.  We got them from the ice cream truck.....remember those?

This version is much healthier, it is freeze dried fruit, a bit of sugar and straws!  

I can't wait to make these.



Homemade Gummy Fruit Snacks 

Gummy fruit snacks have also become a favorite around here, but they are usually full of sugar and kinda expensive.

This version is healthy and a much more tasty version. of the overly sweet gummies of years past

I am all for having less sugar in my life, but every once in a while everyone needs a sugar fix.

Jolly Rancher hard candies have always been my favorite, especially watermelon and green apple.

I think these would make great stocking stuffers, and you could even put them in sucker molds!



I hope these few items give you some great ideas for fun food times!  I plan on trying all three of these.  Have a great rest of the week!
