Parking...

My Mr. Fix-it Fiance and I had an argument conversation about a potential party in our cute and cozy townhouse and he won (because he was right... but don't tell him I said that okay?).  The conversation consisted of me thinking there was enough space for the number of guests we wanted to invite (including chairs, standing room, places to put coats, etc) but he said it wouldn't work due to a lack of parking.

Now we weren't planning a rager or anything, just an open house type set up of a party and he totally brought up a valid point (one point for Mr. Fix-it and zero for the Classy Event Organizer!), that all of our friends' cars would not fit in the couple parking spots that we have here in the townhouse parking lot.  Even using the open spaces in front of the other adjoining townhouses, we'd only have a total of six spots.  So even if we moved our cars out of the parking lot to another area, only six cars could be parked at once.    

This might not be a problem for people who's streets allow parking on them (score!), but even if you have a drive way, you don't want to play a game of tetris to get all the cars on the drive way and then have to figure out how to move them all off when someone wants to go home. 

I have yet to figure out a solution to this problem (other than MOVE!) but wanted to bring up the point to other hostesses that might be held to the same constraints as I am so to not look over this very important detail like I almost did!

Happy Valentine's Day!


Happy Valentine's Day!!  

I hope you all enjoyed the count down with Hershey Kisses!  



As for ONE MORE TIP on how to enjoy these yummy candies... just EAT THEM!  

(Who would have thought, right?!)

A wise person once told me that Hershey Kisses are the best candy to eat while on a diet because of all the hard work it takes to unwrap it before eating!  (Pretty genius theory if you ask me!)

Truly Unique: Hershey Kiss Crescent Rolls

Who doesn't LOVE chocolate pastries?  

In celebration of the "Week of Hershey Kisses", I was on a hunt for an easy to make chocolate pastry of my own when I decided to combine two awesome things (I bet you can guess at least ONE of the pieces...) Hershey Kisses and Crescent Rolls!

How To:  Make SUPER EASY Hershey Kiss Pastries

Bill of Materials:
Hershey Kisses
Crescent Rolls




First,  unroll crescent rolls from container (off subject... do these round packages terrify anyone other than me when they explode open?!)


Second,  cut crescent rolls in half.




Third, roll up hershey kiss in dough.



Fourth, bake rolls as the package suggests



Fifth, take out of the oven and let cool a few minutes.



Sixth, EAT!  I suggest eating these pastries as soon as possible to fully enjoy the yummy warm roll as well as a melted hershey kiss!





You COULD skip cutting the crescent rolls in half and just double up on the Hershey Kisses!!
