Zucchini Chips

Zucchini Chips - What else are you going to do with all that zucchini

In my quest for more creative things to do with zucchini I found chips were a viable option. What a great idea right, someone out there is a genius! I didn't want them just plain though so I thought about all the fabulous chip flavors I love and decided to do vinegar and sea salt.

They are super easy to make, especially in your dehydrator.


Yummy Zucchini Chips

1 or 2 large zucchinis
Vinegar
Salt
Pepper if you like
Olive oil

First slice your zuchs either on a mandolin or thinly by hand

Let soak in vinegar while you are slicing them










Place them on your trays...













Sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper




Now wait until they are a nice crunchy consistency.
















Awesome, right?

You have got to try these, I just know you are going to love them!

Spiderman Birthday Party Invites

Girls Spiderman Party Invites!

Long time no talk, sorry about that folks!

My oldest daughter will be turning 3 in October and has requested a Spiderman party. Last year we did Spongebob, which at least has SOME gender neutrality but hey, I go with what she wants, especially when it comes to brithday parties. It is all about her on that day, right?!

So, I went to work researching. Of course Pineterest provided me with plenty of samples to find an idea and a base to start. We have lots of family out of town, so I like to get the invites out to them early.

I found some colored paper in my scrapbooking supplies, blue and red of course.  Then I came across the good stuff, haloween paper, black with spiderwebs! Yes! I get a little excited when I dont have to pack the kids up and drag them to Joann, or Michaels. Sorry about that.

So I just started cutting and arranging, thinking about card sizes, and mailing sizes. I took the 8x10 paper and cut it into 4 then took the 12x12 "web" paper and cut it into 9 pieces, and it fit pretty good. then I just had to "girly" it up, more for myself really, so I added the glitter around the edges. Then Falon found the jewles and I thought, why not. Of course, then we only had so many, so not all of the invites have "pretties" on them.

In the end I thought they came out pretty good. Stay tuned for more fun. Cake, decorations, and more!
