I didn't get to post a few new foods I tried making.
For Chinese New Year, I decided to try and make some 湯圓 (tang yuan). It's my first time, and the results were surprisingly good! I even had peanut filling. It was pretty simple to make. I just couldn't get the elasticity down yet, so the mochi part was a little thick. I'll add the recipe in Bigoven.com.
Hope you like it!

Here's a picture:

Some simple Valentine's Day crafts.

These were made as Valentine's Day cards. They are hugging hearts! Notes can be written on the back.

I used stencils and punch outs to create the hearts. For all the hearts, card stock paper were used to give it a nice texture. The arms are strips of colored copier paper, with accordion folds, to give some movement.

These flower lollipops give a twist to a simple treat. I used 3 hearts punched out from colored copier paper for the petals. Fold the hearts in half to create petal creases. Make a small notch towards the bottom to help push the Dumdum lollipop stick through. That's all!

Same heart stencil and punch outs with card stock paper. These lollipops are longer and larger, complimenting the stiffer paper. Notes can be written on the back as well.
