WW: Auntie Anne's Pretzel Hearts

Homemade Pretzel Hearts

My first attempt at using the Auntie Anne's At-Home Baking Kit I got as a fun Christmas gift wasn't perfect, but I think the handmade heart pretzels turned out adorable! The imperfections give them character, right? In any case, they were a tasty treat to bring to a girls' night party last weekend. I wouldn't recommend trying to roll the pretzels alone, though - especially if you've never worked with dough like I hadn't. I would have been brokenhearted without Ogre's help! He rolled the dough into folded strips, then handed them to me to dip in baking soda solution, drain and shape into hearts on a cookie tray.

    What a fun gift to receive! I absolutely love soft pretzels but I have never attempted to bake them. I usually just buy a box of them in the frozen food section of the grocery store! ;-)

    Thank you for linking up to the Oh My Heartsie Girls Wordless Wednesday Linky Party!

    Wishing you a fabulous week!

    Much love,

Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter.

Jewelry Giveaway: Braided Bracelet by Rica Jewels

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over. Congratulations to Eugenie Wu for submitting the randomly-chosen 799th entry. Rica Jewels will email you within 24 hours with instructions on how to claim your prize. The winds of March are making me wonder why I haven't learned to properly braid my hair yet.

Daniela of Rica Jewels offers a much more intricate braided bracelet called the Kusma Bracelet. The mixed metal bracelet is made with silver, bronze and copper.
