New Blog! Caramel Potatoes.....oh and a GIVEAWAY!

Alright guys I am breaking the rules today, but you will be so glad I did! Instead of "We Love Etsy Thursday" I am going to introduce you to a new blog that your going to love! 

Doesn't the logo just make your mouth water? It did mine.

Caramel Potatoes is run by a Mother/Daughter team named Kyra and Jocelyn that I am lucky enough to know! They are both wonderful, fun people but let me just say their cooking is out of this world!! I have celiac disease and have to eat gluten free but have still enjoyed many of their dishes because they are nice enough to adjust them for me. That's love my friends! 

Here are a few of my favorite recipes on the blog so far:

Flour Frosting 

Their Signature Dish - Caramel Potatoes

Fresh Strawberry Pie 

Honey Lime Enchiladas 

New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookie

Green Eyed Girl Crafts Blog Feature

One of my first followers that I didn't know was Vicki from Green Eyed Girl Crafts. She always leaves the nicest comments and encouragement. She's not only nice, she has a great craft blog! I am going to try to do blog features once a month and here is our first one. Vicki was nice enough to answer some questions so that we can get to know her better and she shares her top 3 favorite crafts she has made.

  

1. What's the story behind the name of your blog?

My mom used to always say that I had the most beautiful green eyes and that I got them from my Grandma Carole (I am also named after her... Vicki Carole) who had passed away before I was born. So I thought Green Eyed Girl Crafts would fit me perfect... When I gave my blog a "make over" it was important for the cute character on my header to look like me... she has big green eyes and her brown hair is pulled back into a pony tail which is what mine looks like as soon as I am home from work.


2. Why did you start your blog?
 
I love to craft ... and I thought it would be fun to share my ideas with other crafty bloggers who were so willing to share their talents with all of their "blog friends". I love getting to meet so many amazing women over the past year.

3. What are your 3 favorite projects you have made that you featured on your blog?

Family Subway Art - I had the image floating around in my head for several weeks before I finally put it together... I love it. It has all of my family first... middle and last names.

Ghost Family - This one just turned out super cute... and was my first project I actually sold for money.

Dallas Cowboy Cross Stitch Pictures - My family loves the Cowboys... and I wanted to make my dad something special...besides... what can you get the man who has everything? I gave him the "Cowboys" for Christmas and the star for his birthday...

4. What is your favorite type of craft?

Scrapbooking and Cross-stitching


5. What is something odd that not many people know about you?
 
I'm a hopeless romantic... and think every day should be filled with hearts and love! I have a heart shaped waffle iron and can't help buy anything heart shaped!
 

Thank you Vicki for answering my questions!
