Popcorn for any season

http://thisblessednest.blogspot.com/2011/01/valentine-confetti.html

Basically the same as White chocolate Peppermint popcorn, but change it up with seasonal colored M&M's and/or jelly beans.  Cute gift for VT, HT, YW, etc.

Milk & Cookie Party

This would be so fun for a shower, or YW, or RS!  She has even put links to some of the recipes!  And they way the cookies are displayed is pretty cool, too.  Love it!

The Best No Bake Cookies

2 C sugar
1/2 C milk
1/2 C butter
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 C cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
3 1/2 to 4 C oatmeal
Boil all but vanilla and oats for 1 minute stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add vanilla and oatmeal. Mix well. Drop on wax paper by the spoonful and let dry.
(This is the recipe that my husband insists on, you see his mom makes the best 'no bakes' and the recipe came from her;) So I figured that I should put it in a safe spot so I can find it when I need it.)
