Mother's Day Gift and Quote

It's always a challenge to find fun, inexpensive gifts for our groups for Mother's Day.  This year I made Pretzel Flowers.

I put two pretzel flowers in a small ziplock bag and the quote.  They turned out really pretty and were delicious!  

Here's how I made the flowers:

I used mini pretzels and Bright White Candy Melts by Wilton (found at Michael's in the cake decorating section).  I, also, used M&M's with the M side down.

You can use the small square pretzels, too.  Put pretzels on a cookie sheet and center one candy melt  on each pretzel.  I put them in a 200 degree oven for 2 minutes.  You don't want the melts too soft or they will drip down through the pretzel.  When they come out of the oven, have fun decorating them with the M&M's to look like flowers!  So fun!!

Rut Blockers

Stand with legs out and arms straight and held out overhead - like the letter X.  Hold the ball in the L hand.  The R hand sweeps over the head toward the upheld ball -oblique stretch. Repeat 8x's and repeat on other side.
