Ingredients:

  • 8 cups Rice Chex cereal

  • unicorn shaped sprinkles, for topping

  2. Now, add powdered sugar and  powdered Jello mix to another medium bowl. Stir then set aside. 
  3. Pour all but 1/4 cup of the pink candy melts into a bowl and microwave on high for 30 seconds.
  4. Remove, stir, then place back in the microwave and heat again for 30 seconds. Stir until smooth. 
  5. Pour melted candy on top of the bowl of cereal and mix well with a rubber spatula. 
  6. Scoop into a large freezer bag (or two) then pour in the powdered mixture. 
  7. Seal the bag then shake, shake, shake until combined.
  8. Pour into a large bowl.
  9. Top with unicorn shaped sprinkles.
  10. Melt remaining 1/4 cup pink candy melts in the microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then another 30 minutes if not yet melted. 
  11. Once it’s melted you can use a spoon to drizzle on top of the bowl of puppy chow or spoon into a small piping or ziploc bag, cut off bottom corner and drizzle all over the puppy chow.
  12. Scoop into cups and serve as a party or movie snack. Enjoy!

🌳 ✨️NWA Must See : Listening Forest by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. 
My family and I had the pleasure of experiencing this nighttime interactive exhibit at @crystalbridgesmuseum last week. It was unlike anything we have ever done before and we spent two fun filled hours exploring the lighted forest and all the lights, music, sculptures, and sounds within. Hands down one of the best experiences we have had so far in Arkansas!

It's #WhatchaReadingWednesday (a day late, whoops!). I was so excited to find this Choose Your Own Adventure book at @samsclub and it's a #StrangerThings story! I loved these books growing up and I am super excited they are making a comeback. This easy read is perfect for throwing in your bag and picking up anytime you have a break and want to read a chapter or two of a story. Super excited to read this one and you know I plan of reading all 25 endings! ✨️
