HAVING A PARTY...AND HELPING OUT TOO!!!

It's time for a little....SLUMBER PARTY!!!  Krumbs and I are having a very cool, very fun party tonight with three friends and their pooches.  We've planned some really cool activities that involve duct tape, pizza dough, and an aluminum foil dress contest--how about that for a little creative fun? (Hint: the duct tape, pizza dough and aluminum foil are for three seperate projects, not the same project!)

This is sort of a "Birthday Party Cookie Never Had" party.  My birthday was months ago, but I never had a party to celebrate with my friends, so this weekend is the weekend to celebrate!  Here's a picture of the cake...I love it! 

 

We're going to decorate these cool boxes with duct tape designs and then we're going to fill them with canned foods and donate them to the local food pantry.  I thought that would be a great way to help people since the weather is turning cold and we've already had two storms! 

Since we're thinking about cold weather, Krumbs and I were thinking about the holidays too.  We decided to try the smelly ornaments from Brooke Halperin's Cafe article, "Heirloom Ornaments: Smelly or Colored".  We'll each make some ornaments to take home, but we'll also work on making some for a local nursing home to hang all around for the holidays.  We have cookie cutters shaped like gingerbread men, holly, menorahs, christmas trees and candles and we'll make a whole bunch.  Ms. Halperin has a recipe for colored ornaments too, but we decided to go for yummy spicy scents instead of bright colors...at least for this time!

We're really psyched for my party.  We'll have a lot of fun, make pizzas and watch movies, but we'll do a couple of things to make other people happy too.  I think that's a pretty awesome idea, don't you?

What do you do to volunteer or help out in your community?  Share with us on Klub Krumbs!
