Won't you join me for some Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Eggs and a cup of tea?
My dear friend, Linda, gave me this two piece tiered plate stand for my birthday. Isn't it beautiful with the green doily embossed into the glass? I can see using this for so many things. Thanks, Linda! My Peanut Butter Easter Eggs recipe can be found here.
I'm using my Royal Albert 1920's Spring Meadow to celebrate SPRING!
I made this bunny couple years ago and I always love getting them out for Easter.
Fairy BlogMother, Linda, from Life and Linda made some adorable furry critters, which you can find here, a few weeks ago and I loved them so much that I had to be a copy cat and make them for my grandkids. Aren't they the cutest jars for treats? The stuffed animals all came from the Dollar Tree. You cut them apart (oh dear, I felt like I was amputating the little critters!) in the middle, cut their little feet off, and hot glue them onto the jars. I used various ribbons to cover the rim of the jar. It was a fun craft, and they look so sweet! Thanks for the idea, Linda!
Two of my grands spent the night and we copied what Mary made of Home Is Where The Boat Is, a few weeks ago. To see Mary's directions and her beautiful cookie tart, you can visit here.
Didn't the kids do a great job on this Peeps Cookie Tart? Thanks for the inspiration, Mary! The kids even used my Wilton Dessert Decorator and piped the icing on by themselves.
And last, but not least, I was so excited to be able to meet Deborah, from The Beautiful Matters, who came from Michigan to attend a wedding. We had lunch together and spent a couple of hours just chatting away, as if we hadn't seen each other in quite some time. Isn't it wonderful how we actually get to "know" blogging friends through their words, and what they share on their blogs. Deborah is as beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. Deborah gave me the cutest teacup and a gift bag filled with several teas, which I will share some other time. Our friend, Celeste, from Southern DayDreams was supposed to join us, but she was under the weather, and couldn't make it. We missed her!
I am sharing this with these lovely parties:
Your new tiered serving tray is beautiful Kitty, no doubt you'll have lots of fun with it! The eggs look great and I'm sure the kids had a blast making the Peeps cookie:@)
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring Kitty! Your critter treat jars are too cute, I know your grands will love them filled with Easter candy! I'm swooning over your pretty Spring Meadow teacup and I know your tiered plate stand will be filled with lots of delicious goodies from your Kozy Kitchen :) Your grands did a wonderful job decorating their Peeps tart! ♥
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to meet and fellowship with blogger friends. Love your teacup and I'll take peanut butter anything anytime!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely post and your fur critters turned out darling. I know your grand children will love them. The new cake stand is so pretty, especially with your peanut butter eggs. How special to meet another blogger. You have been busy Kitty. The tart is very cute and the smiles are even sweeter. xo
ReplyDeleteOh Kitty, you have been having too much fun! First of all I love all your bunnies! And those cute critter treat jars are adorable! Your peeps cookie cake turned out perfectly, and those chocolate eggs, my oh my! Love the new tiered stand too. Blogging friends are indeed special, how fun to meet for lunch.

Hi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteI love all of your Easter candy and decor! Your grand kids are sweet and they must be so eager to come to make treats in Grandma Kitty's Kozy Kitchen. How wonderful to meet Deborah! You are both so special! Happy Easter! Karen
So many great things in this post. The peanut butter Easter eggs look like a very special treat. Your grands did a great job with the peeps cake. How fun to meet Deborah. I've enjoyed meeting a few bloggers - such a great community. Happy Easter, Kitty.
ReplyDeleteKitty, this post is full of treats for the eyes. Your little critter jars are fun. The grands are going to love receiving these. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have some quality one on one real time with a blogging friend. I don't know Deborah, so I'm off to visit her blog and introduce myself. Love making a new friend.
Hi Kitty, one treat after another! What fun you've had. The critters are too cute and I'll check out the link (think you). Peanut butter and chocolate -- be still my heart!!!!! I love your handmade bunnies and you and the gran-kids did a great job on the cookie tart. You are just having too much fun! And you got to meet a fellow blogger -- another treat! Happy Spring and Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteOh, Kitty, it was so great to meet you, and I had a wonderful time! I am getting ready to take a nap right now, the weekend was so busy, but I had to stop by first!
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny, "amputating" those little stuffed animals! I would have felt the same way! But they are adorable. And I'm going to have to try those peanut butter eggs. My family loves peanut butter and chocolate. xo Deborah ps I'll send an email soon with some of the info I promised you
Kitty, this is such a fun post. Your chocolate eggs are beautiful and yes, I'd love to have tea with you. Your grandkids are adorable and I bet they loved spending that time with you. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty! Oh, what a beautiful tiered stand you have and it looks lovely with the cupcakes on it! Your did good on your copy cat from Linda. I saw those too and thought I need to do this, but I didn't! :) The big Peep cookies is so cute and the kids look very proud of themselves. Happy Easter and I hope you're doing well.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
How cute everything is, Kitty. I love the little jars, and the peeps cake is adorable. How fun your Grands must have spending the night with you! Also love the handmade bunnies you bring out each year. Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty: So good to visit you! Thanks for all your prayers. I love your tiered stand. Have a wonderful week. Blessings, Martha
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tiered tray. You will get lots of use out of that. Those Easter eggs look delicious and the jars are adorable! You're so funny saying you 'amputated' them. Had to giggle at that. I'm so happy you got to spend time with Deborah. I bet you two covered a lot of ground with your chat. Lovely for both of you. Happy Spring, my friend, and enjoy your week.
Easter blessings,
Sandi
I look forward to Mondays to vist here! Those jars are too cute.
ReplyDeleteI love this post. Pretty setting, cute people and yummy food.
ReplyDeleteI love this post. Pretty setting, cute people and yummy food.
ReplyDeleteHow do I love this post? Let me count the ways: 1) chocolate peanut butter treats; 2) teacup with pretty purple flowers; 3) adorable bunnies and grandkids; 4) a meet-up between 2 bloggers I greatly admire!
ReplyDeleteAs a huge Toy Story fan, I would have felt bad cutting up the stuffed critters too. Heh.
Kitty, Happy Spring! I clicked on your PB egg recipe and YUM! I don't know if I will have time this year to make them but I will definitely make them next year. Your spring decor makes me smile. Too cute that you had to amputate the furry friends. Did you at least anesthetize them? And how sweet to meet a blog friend. Both of you are lovely ladies!
ReplyDeleteThis post is filled with so many lovely things. I love your treats and I would enjoy one with tea with you. What a sweet gift, the doily embossed tiered cake stand and how pretty is the tea cup! Adorable bunnies and furry critters. Your grands are adorable and I know you must have enjoyed this evening Kitty. And, it is always a wonderful thing when we can meet our blogger friends. Enjoy a Blessed Easter………..
ReplyDeleteOh what fun to see two blogging buddies together! It is always fun! Glad that you carried on like old friends, which you really are!
ReplyDeleteSo much Easter goodness going on here...love your projects with the grands right down to the surgeries of little critters...LOL!
Thanks for popping in today, Kitty. I don't know how long it would have taken me to realize that your blog was one that had been bumped. Blooger...harumph.
What a fun post from start to finish, Kitty! First off, those Peanut Butter Easter Eggs look yummy! I love the bunnies you made. They're so perfect for this time of year. And those furry critters are adorable. I may try making them and filling the jars with Easter candy for my three youngest grandchildren. I loved seeing your grandchildren and the Peeps Cookie Tart they made. They did a great job! And how special to get to meet a blogging friend - and one from my state, no less! I wish you and your loved ones a very Happy Easter, Kitty. Easter's message is beautiful - Because He lives, we too shall live eternally! Hugs, Phyllis
ReplyDeleteOh Kitty Dear - this post is sweetness overload...from beginning to end. Just love it all, and am SO envious that you got to meet up with a blogging friend...one day that will be you and me! =D The photos of your smiling grands is just precious.

ReplyDeleteYour chocolate - peanut butter eggs look so good, Kitty, and aren't they sweet on your new cake stand! I always love your pretty table settings :) Your grandchildren are just beautiful and it must be so much fun to visit with their fun and pretty Grandmother who loves to bake treats with them. The little animal jars are such a cute idea, too. I love seeing two of my favorite bloggers together. So wonderful that you got to meet. Happy Easter week to you, my Dear. Hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteSuch a delightful meeting with Deborah! I happened to meet a fellow blogger this week myself, and it was quite the amazing experience, we just happened to be in the same restaurant at the same time, amazing! A God thing for sure! Your little easter treats are just delightful, cutting them up would certainly feel a little funny for sure, but they turned out so cute! I hope you have a blessed and very special Easter, dear Kitty!
ReplyDeleteYour Easter treats look scrumptious. You grand-kids did a wonderful job in whipping up those bunny treats. I do love the two tiered cake plate...love the embossed doilies. Pretty tea cup also, it definitely heralds Spring. How wonderful to meet with Deborah; it sounds as if you are kindred spirits. May you have a blessed Easter, Kitty, with your family.

HI Kitty, your home looks so lovely decorated for Easter! I use to make the peanut butter eggs years ago, I think I need to make them again! Your grands are so darling! I know mine are a life saver to me since my dear daughter passed away. How wonderful to meet a blogging friend! You both are so beautiful! Happy Easter to you and many blessings too!
ReplyDeleteNancy

ReplyDeleteDear Kitty:
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you and Deborah got together. I also enjoyed this darling posting with the grands and your fun cookie tart. Looks like they sure loved doing this with Grandma! So glad you shared and linked Kitty. Have a lovely week.
Everything is just so cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
I love when I meet blog/Instagram friends.
ReplyDeleteI clicked right over to those peanut butter Easter eggs. I have a similar recipe for what I call Buckeyes. I think I'll give your recipe a try.
Thanks for sharing at SYC.
What a fun time you must have had with your grands & that cookie!
ReplyDeleteAlso getting to meet up with Deborah had to be a joy as well. I'll have to check out her blog today.
That two piece tiered plate stand is just lovely, esp. with those yummy looking choc/peanut butter eggs on top! I am always so impressed with how you can set up a little area to look so inviting. I need to work on doing that.
Have a Blessed Easter, Kitty, surrounded by the love of family & friends.
Hugs,
Rett
Your home looks lovely and your grandkids look very happy! Have a wonderful Easter.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing better than grandchildren , their visits, and a special holiday.
ReplyDeleteEach time I visit here Kitty, you warm my heart.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us all at Thoughts of Home on Thursday. We are so glad you are here!
The furry critter jars are adorable. I used to have a very similar pair of bunnies until the Boston terrier we had for many years adopted them as his bed partners.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet that you got to meet another blogger.
Happy Easter, Kitty.
The jars are adorable....such fun. So glad you enjoyed your time with another blogger....and the grands did an awesome job on the cookie..
ReplyDeleteAll is so wonderful! Sweet grandchildren!I love your beautiful Easter decorations!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and family!

ReplyDeleteHappy Easter and Happy Spring Kitty! I am so glad you had your grandkids over. They did a great job on that dessert. That is a very sweet Royal Albert vintage cup!
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best day and a lovely springtime.
Hugs,
Terri
Happy Easter, precious friend! As I type this I am listening to the song "Roll Away The Stone" :) I was not familiar with it so I had to find it right away - I love it!
ReplyDeleteI hope your Easter is off to a beautiful start. My little one and I have a cold so we did not make it to church and I must confess that I am heartbroken! How I love the Easter service and the glorious songs that we sing. I was also to play a special on the piano...but I keep telling myself that God knows and has a plan even with something like this. Your song came at the perfect time and has greatly encouraged me - thank you!
Your post is simply lovely and that tea cup...STUNNING! And speaking of stunning, you and Deborah are so beautiful! I am so glad the two of you were able to meet up.
Love, hugs, and blessings to you!
Kitty, just stopping by again to say hello and thank you for sharing your delightful post at DI&DI. You really outdid yourself. So happy to hear your grandkids loved the critter jars. Xo
