DIY of the Day: Framing pictures is for olds. All the cool kids are copying their pictures directly onto blocks of wood.
Crystal Shea says:
Make sure to use copy paper and a laser print copy- it works best this way. Also, to those who are having issues getting all the paper residue off, here’s a tip: get as much paper as you can off, then wet the image with water again so the paper is no longer visible, then apply the mod podge before it’s dry. I found this helps for me.

Nutella Ravioli Cookies.
shared with me by Carolyn, this cookie recipe definitely capture’s her Italian heritage mixed with my exposure to Italian culture, after living there for 3 years. oh and it’s, you know, NUTELLA INSIDE A RAVIOLI SHAPED COOKIE.
recipe over @ Rock UR Party.
Poached Pear in Cranberry Juice with Vanilla Cream.
I was running on the treadmill at the gym when I felt the sudden urge to make this. So I ran faster so I can finish faster and dash to the supermarket to get the ingredients. I did make a pit-stop and had Japanese food for dinner; I was hungry and light headed from all that rushing.
Poached pear is a typical dessert option for cold winter nights as it is typically served warm. Poaching maximizes the pear’s natural sweetness and the spices enhances the taste; truly decadent.
Anyway, the recipe is very easy. Normally the recipe calls for port wine; I opt to use cranberry juice instead. Another alternative are orange or pomegranate juice.
You’ll like it, trust me.
