Healthy Halloween Treat ~ Banana Ghosts

Shortcake's teacher requested a healthy breakfast snack the morning of her Halloween Carnival. Banana ghosts were the perfect choice and are super simple to make. 

    What you need:

• bananas
• chocolate chips (mini work best)

    Steps: 

1. Peel bananas and cut them in half. 
2. At the skinny end of the banana, press in two chocolate chips for the eyes and one for the nose.
3. We recommend waiting until right before the treats are needed to prep since the bananas do tend to turn. (pic was taken 1hr after prep)

Be sure to post a link below and share them with us if you give them a try. 

You won't be disappointed! They are too cute!

Knobs or No Knobs...

We need your vote! Our sales counter was built by our owners husband so that it looks like drawers stacked sideways as if pulled from a chest of drawers and stacked on one another.  She purchased two knobs for each "drawer" but couldn't make the decision as to whether or not to use them. What do you think? Knobs or no knobs? Leave a comment on this post or over on our facebook page letting us know what you think! 

Tuesday Tips & Tricks: Soften those flip flop heels

The Sassy girls found this awesome trick on Pinterest and want to share it with you. 

All it takes is 3 easy ingredients and 30 minutes of relaxation until you are feeling pedicure fresh!

What You need:

• Listerine
• Shaving Cream
• Lotion (a foot moisturizer is good)

Steps:

1. Combine equal parts warm water and Listerine in a bucket or sink
2. Put shaving cream on your feet.
3. Soak a small hand towel in the solution of water and Listerine.
4. While the shaving cream is still on your feet, wrap the wet hand towel around your feet and let it sit for 30 minutes.
5. After 30 minutes, use the towel to rub your feet. You will notice some of the calloused and discolored skin will rub off.
6. Apply a healthy amount of lotion to your feet.
7. Enjoy your smooth, clean feet!
