Blogiversary!

It's the one-year anniversary of Sister Projects! It's hard to believe that we've already been doing this for a year. Thank you so much to every single one of you who has taken the time to read our posts. We've enjoyed blogging immensely, and we hope you've enjoyed the results.

Nutella for Easter

Yesterday, we made these Nutella Cream Eggs for Easter. The process is similar to the Peanut Butter Hearts we made last month, but these were much more frustrating to dip because they didn't set up as firmly as the peanut butter mixture. That said, they still turned out fairly well - or at least the ones we're showing here did. ;) Plus they have nutella (or Hyvee hazelnut spread as the case may be), so we're not complaining. Since the dipping process proved difficult, Katie eventually opted to drizzle the melted almond bark over the remaining candies, which for the most part produced better-looking results. 

Yes, that's all off-brand stuff. We're cheap that way.

Ready for dipping (a.k.a. the worst part of candy-making)

Finished product - flowers, eggs, and a sheep!

Happy Easter! We'll see you at the end of the month with a reading challenge update.

Upcoming Posts

Greetings, lovely readers! Please accept our humble apologies for putting this post up late. We watched Wreck-It-Ralph last night and intended to put the post up right after, but I (Katie) fell asleep on the living room floor as the end credits were rolling and Sarah was unable to wake me despite her best efforts.

For this week's post, we thought we'd list a few of the ideas we're considering for upcoming blog posts so that you know what to expect for the next few months and also have an opportunity to give feedback on our ideas and suggest ideas of your own.

• Journal making - Katie recently learned how to do this, and we thought it would be a fun thing to work on together. We'd include pictures of the process to show you how to make your own, of course.
• Pop song / Book genre matching - A good friend of Sarah's suggested this idea to us after having some fun with it herself one day. Basically, we'd come up with pop songs that fit different genres of books and you guys would be able to add to that list in the comments.
• Experimental Easter egg dyeing - There are several different methods of egg dyeing that we've never tried. (We have a few pinned on Pinterest.) We'd pick one or more and try them out, then share the results here, including pictures.
• Writing prompts and exercises - We would come with our own for you guys to do and/or find some of ones we've come across in the past, do them ourselves, then share the results.

Let us know which ideas interest you the most, and please feel free to suggest new ideas to add to our list. We love hearing from you.

Have a great weekend!
