WW: Auntie Anne's Pretzel Hearts

Homemade Pretzel Hearts

My first attempt at using the Auntie Anne's At-Home Baking Kit I got as a fun Christmas gift wasn't perfect, but I think the handmade heart pretzels turned out adorable! The imperfections give them character, right? In any case, they were a tasty treat to bring to a girls' night party last weekend. I wouldn't recommend trying to roll the pretzels alone, though - especially if you've never worked with dough like I hadn't. I would have been brokenhearted without Ogre's help! He rolled the dough into folded strips, then handed them to me to dip in baking soda solution, drain and shape into hearts on a cookie tray.

    What a fun gift to receive! I absolutely love soft pretzels but I have never attempted to bake them. I usually just buy a box of them in the frozen food section of the grocery store! ;-)

    Thank you for linking up to the Oh My Heartsie Girls Wordless Wednesday Linky Party!

    Wishing you a fabulous week!

    Much love,

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...
