Remember how we had to write those speeches in elementary school and say them in front of the whole class? (Or at least, that’s what we had to do in our school each year…) I remember when I was in the fifth grade, I wrote my speech all about… wait for it… my collection of teddy bears! I was such a dork! I was 10 years old and I had at least 6 teddy bears that I slept with every single night. Is that weird? Because looking back, it seems like I was getting kind of old for it? Especially the part where I wrote a speech declaring my love for all my little stuffed friends and then recited it to everyone in my class. Thanks for letting me do that Mom! Ha!

You know that delicious golden brown colour on a warm, gooey marshmallow after you’ve roasted it over a campfire? It’s pure deliciousness! Except of course, if you’re anything like me, you probably lit the first two marshmallows on fire before you got that perfectly golden brown one. You know the sudden panic when you realize your marshmallow caught fire, but your stick is so long that it takes some serious effort to figure out how to get it anywhere near your mouth to blow it out? Good times!
Do you end up with tons of candy canes during the holiday season? I still have candy canes in my cupboard from last Christmas, in addition to the ones I bought this year. We eat a few, put them in the cupboard and then they seem to get lost and forgotten. That’s why I love the idea of doing creative things with candy canes. These candy cane hearts are super cute, and the best part is that if you don’t get around to making them at Christmas time, they are great for Valentine’s Day too!
