& I made coconut marshmallows last night & this morning. We
added three teaspoons of coconut extract to the recipe and toasted
coconut to the top. These babies are slated for some rockin’ s’mores,
cut-to-fit. If you’ve never had a homemade marshmallow, then you’ve
never had a real marshmallow. It always amazes me how few marshmallows
it takes to kick a sugar craving. Hoo-ee. You see, with chocolate,
the craving keeps kicking back.
And, speaking of chocolate, go order a "Double-Chocolate-Chip
Frappacino" at Starbucks sometime — icy cold, less-guilty than a
milkshake and so chocolately. Perfect for our ridiculously-hot summer
weather. Elinor clued me in to her frappacino fetish on Saturday when
we went for a trim-dig at a local fabrics-by-the-pound shop. I picked
up a funky assortment of buttons: wooden birdies, plastic telephones,
tea kettles, bugs, and a few metal ones that look a bit like Madeline.
S’mores tonight!
OMG that sounds sooooo good!!! I’ll have to try your recipe.
I am powerless against marshmallows. I have never made them for this reason. I am now convinced that I need to embrace my weak will. Lovely blog, btw.
Wow, looks yummy! Have a wonderful time with your family!
Ohh how yummy!
I would love to know what your favorite fabric shops are in the Valley! Care to share?
There’s nothing like homemade marshmallows — I love adding a little espresso powder and good cocoa powder for mocha marshmallows. Goes great with hot chocolate!
be still my heart. i followed the link to the recipe, and from the comments to a craftster thread…vegetarian mellows! i gotta try this!

Mmmmmmmm, my kids would love those!
Those marshmallows look delicious!!
mmmmmmmmmm…..
So glad you’re running off with the marshmallow recipe.
You’re inspiring me to dip into some mad marshmallow making again. 🙂
That looks funky-licious!

I really love your blog. It is so delicate and beautiful. And your photos are very nice. I can spend hours looking in your blog.
So I have nominated you as one of 5 Rockin Girl Bloggers in my blog. I had to nominate 5 blogs that I think are nice and give inspiration, and your blog is one of them. Have a nice day.
My kids and I just got back from the bookstore, with Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino’s!!! It’s too HOT here to play outside…and who left the calorie count on that?! We don’t need to know those things 😉
Ok Amber, and your point is? ;o)
Seriously though, I’m a huge Frappuccino fan myself. Did you know that you can get a Grande Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino Light for 220 calories…and they really don’t taste that much different. Enjoy!
(and no I don’t work at Starbucks. :oP)
Yes please, do share your favorite fabric stores. We’ll be vacationing in California next week!
Madeline buttons? I had no idea you could find them. When I was little I loved those books.
Ah, those are my favorite Frap flavor. I am also very jealous of the mention of “fabric by the pound”… I’d love to know where it is!
Oh, those marshmallows sound heavenly! I will definitely try them. I’ve heard that homemade marshmallows are the best!
wowee – homemeade marshmallows?! who knew?!
Looks so delicious! I must try this, I have never had homemade marshmallows before…
Smiles…

I love your blog, and now that you’ve mentioned my favorite youthful haunt (I suspect it’s SAS you’re referring to), I had to write and tell you if you’re ever in Philadelphia, you must visit Jo-Mar. You would think you’d died and gone to heaven. thanks so much for your inspiring creativity. Your blog is great.
Ive always wanted to make marsmallows, and these look luscious!
I live in So Cal, and I cannot find a good fabric store, except for Material Possesions in Lake Forest.. Help!!
I love your blog and have it linked to mine, hope that is cool-a-mundo.
Scrumdiddly-umptious!! Looks delish.

Frappuccinos are awesome, but the sugar in them is off the chart. I’m addicted. And what is this about homemade marshmallows? I may have found a new love.
