Christmas Triangle Candy Box Ornament
By 15mhhm15
This was my first trial run to make Christmas favors for my niece's classmates. I would recommend making the triangles at least 3" at the base or longer and taller to accommodate more candies.
Chilled Cucumber and Dill Soup
By Holly
This soup was inspired by several online recipes and is made with a combination of yogurt and buttermilk. It's fresh, smooth, and bright. This recipe makes a good appetizer any time of the year.

Persian and English cucumbers are my absolute favourite from the entire cuke line, but they aren't the cheapest. In order to keep them from going mushy, it's best to keep them as dry as possible. I find they are very happy in paper bags.
Mardi Gras Beads As Christmas Garland
By Jodi Murray H.
Use them on a small Christmas tree as garland. I have a small tree I put up in my dining room, and I put small ornaments that would get lost on my big tree on it. Instead of tinsel or garland, I loop Mardi Gras beads of all different colors together and drape them around it. They shine, even when the lights aren't on.
Basket Drawer to Hide Office Supplies
By Sandi/Poor But Proud
I recently raised my computer up with some jar lids. Today, I reconfigured the desk so I didn't have to sit forward and look to the left at the laptop. Doing that made me use the box I had the laptop on under the scanner.
Using Spice Grinders with Hot Food
By ShirleyE
Steam can cause a spice grinder to become blocked over time. It is therefore a good idea, especially with salt, to grind your seasonings straight into the lid and then sprinkle it from your fingers rather than hold the grinder over the steamy hot cooking food.
This felt candy cane ornament is simple to make. Hang it on your tree or have your kids decorate a felt christmas tree with felt ornaments. Learn how to make one in this step by step video.

By mariastuff
I have a small pumpkin and a small squash; they are still in perfect condition. I use them for Thanksgiving table decorating. Now I would like to use eat them. Is there a recipe I could use together or even separate?
