Cupcake Liner Pom Pom

What you'll need:

  1. Styrofoam Ball
  2. Push Pins
  3. Glue, I used tacky glue. You can also use a glue gun.
  4. Candlestick. I got mine on sale at Michael's for $3!
  5. Cupcake liners.



How-To


Arrange the cupcake liners so one will be inside out and the other with be the right way, so you don't see any of the white in the cupcake liners.





Bend the liners around your thumb...



Push the pin thru the center. Add glue at the base and push in the styrofoam.


Arrange all around the ball until covered!



Pasta Ziti




This is a favorite of my mom and my fiance! Win WIN! Super easy!

Ingredients:

  • 1lb ground beef
  • 1/2 a medium onion, diced
  • Sprinkle of garlic powder
  • 1 box of ziti or whatever type of noodles you like
  • 2 jars of your favorite sauce, I used Prego Light Smart
  • Whatever cheese you like, I used reduced fat shredded cheddar and grated parmesan cheese
Instructions: 
  1. Brown beef with diced onions, sprinkle in garlic powder
  2. Cook pasta in bowling water one minute less than the box says
  3. Drain beef and pasta
  4. Mix sauce and beef
  5. In a separate bowl mix half of the noodles, half of the sauce, and 2 handfuls of cheese - stir and put in a 9x13 pan. 
  6. Do this twice until ingredients are used.
  7. Cover with cheese on top
  8. Bake 350 degrees for 17-20minutes

This is definitely a great recipe to play around with!
