I love making homemade candy buttons.  Probably because I loved them so much as a kid.  I've even made morse code candy buttons for a Nautical Rain Gutter Regatta party, and heart-shaped valentines candy buttons.

Use free printable Minecraft paper to make these easy Minecraft cupcake wrappers.  Wrap them around any cupcake, and you'll have instant Minecraft cupcakes.

I always like to have some activity ready to go when kids arrive at a party.  Not a game, necessarily, but something that they can do while we're waiting for all the guests to arrive.  That's exactly what our Dog Taming game was for the Minecraft Stampy Longnose party.

Do you know how much I love my daughter?  Enough to throw her the Stampy Longnose/Minecraft birthday party she desperately wanted for her 7th birthday!  

Make a 4th of July fruit salad with red, white, and blue fruit--including apples cut into stars!  It's an easy, healthy dish to make for any summer celebration.

I'm not going to teach you how to make polymer clay lemon slice canes (there are far better clay artists making great video tutorials for that), but I did want to share some of the ways I used the clay lemon slices I made as embellishments for the Ultimate Lemonade Stand.

I've always loved classic lemon drops hard candies, but I've never tried making them myself.  The Ultimate Lemonade Stand was a perfect excuse to remedy that.

A lemon muffin with bright lemon flavor and a delicious crumb topping is pretty much the best way to start any day.

The Ultimate Lemonade Stand needed some Ultimate Cupcakes, clearly, so I had fun experimenting with Katherine Sabbath inspired cupcake designs, complete with miniature marbleized and sprinkle-encrusted chocolate shards.

Amazing lemon cookies with very thin slices of REAL lemon topping the sugar cookies, to provide intense lemon flavor.
