I am SORE this morning! But can I just say, if you EVER get the opportunity to do something that scares you and might possibly embarrass you...DO IT. Wow, that was SO fun.
{I didn't plan on sharing a picture of my practicing, or I would have worn something besides sloppy sweats and fuzzy socks, but I just couldn't resist how excited I looked here!}
My sweet friend, Charisse kept me company that day, helped me carry things and took pictures as well. Loved having her with me and I love how absolutely BEAUTIFUL she looks next to my goofy face!
ok, let's go ahead and watch my 60 seconds of excitement!
And now, for the...rest of the story. Here are my two planned segments. First, let's make pastry! Greek pastry, no less. I needed to come up with a recipe with honey and frankly, I can't think of one recipe that uses more honey than Baklava.
I'm don't have a big sweet tooth, but it makes it all the more surprisingly how much I love this sticky sweet treat. It's so addictive and highly dangerous to have made as much of this as I have over the last few weeks as I tweaked my recipe.
Please visit the Studio 5 website for the complete article, step by step photos and of course, the recipe. Oh, and be sure to try adding chocolate chips, it is killer! Takes it to an all new sweet level
If you love paper crafting things with wings, then watch the video and read the article to be inspired by some summertime projects and simple techniques to make 'better bugs'.
Thanks for watching and stay tuned for my next Studio 5 segment on June 8th!
*Sneak-peek winner: Ok, I really need to make my sneak-peek easier as no one guessed it completely. I promise, next time will be better! In the meantime, I think Shelley came the closest. She's from Las Vegas and here's her website if you'd like to get to know her better. Thanks for playing and try again everyone!

You were fabulous! I am so happy you faced a fear and stared it down. You are my hero!
WOW! What my sister in law will do for fame!
YUM! I've been thinking about all things Turkish for the past few weeks since my parents are there. I've made five batches of Turkish Delight. I got it down on the third, and the last two were just for fun. I might try selling it at our Farmer's Market! I'm going to try that Baklava, I've never had it.
Congrats on completing your challenge! And thanks for posting my web site!

My SIL told me about your blog and I just have to say thank you so much! I love the cricut. I am so grateful that you were willing to practice so that you were prepared to win me that machine. It was an intense minute and I was going CRAZY! I am still in shock that it came down to the last few seconds.
I will be sending you a dollar to re-pay you for the money you spent on crepe paper to practice on my behalf ;)
