Lemon Lime Oh So Yummy Drink

 

Sorry I had to take a break there - But I am BACK :)

I LOVE Lemonade!!!!! 
I was looking for a way to do a bit of a twist

I have seen a few ways to make a Lemon Limeade using  Lemon and Lime essential oils, as well as some other ingredients (those ones I did not have in my house and were on the more expensive side)

In the Frozen food Isle I saw that Minute Maid Lemonade was on sale - I snatched up a few :)

Today, I received my Essential Oil order from Young Living and in it - Lime :)

So I decided to experiment with making my own Lemon Limeade :)

I made the lemonade as instructed and dropped the Lime Oil in a drop at a time till it was perfect :)

For me - 10 drops of Lime was perfect!!

Oh my heaven this is so good, I don't ever think I could drink regular lemonade again :)

Enjoy!!!

DIY Mints :)

Every other week I open up my house for a few hours and invite my friends over to try out some of the things I post on here, to make sure the instructions make sense and  to see if they even like what they make.

Yesterday I did just that :)

I had a few friends come over and try out a few things - By far everyone's favorite were the Mints :)

So easy so Yummy

Again something I saw on Pinterest, though I did make a change ;) or an addition :)
Here is the link to the original post - Mints

All you need is
Either
Gum Paste (as it states in the original post)
OR
Fondant (these mints will not get as hard but are just as Yummy)

I cut off as much as I wanted to use - and stored the rest in an air tight container  
       (You can make a TON of mints from one box/container)

Kneed the "dough" till soft
Add your Essential Oil (Again so VERY important you use only Therapeutic Grade)
Kneed your oil in

Roll out - to the Purple ring (1/8th inch)
Cut out your mints
Let dry (takes 24 to 48 hours)

Enjoy
