CAKE POPS

For a change, Tscarf took up a culinary project, the upcycling of a cake. The only difference is that the outcome disappears fairly quickly, at least in my family, haha.

First we had this big chunk of home baked cake:

Which was then crumbled in a bowl:

Some red icing was called for:

The icing and the crumbs were mixed and rolled into balls:

These balls were given a stick, so that they started to look like lolliepops:

 And then dipped in chocolate, and..... eaten!

Ten cheers for our local goodwill store!!

Waking up feeling happy because it's Wednesday, which means that the Goodwill Store (aka KOOK Alkmaar) is open.

STEP 2
Finding time and excuses to actually go there, to see if there are any woollen sweaters to be found, as I've just discovered the joy of upcycling sweaters, for a change.

STEP 3
Being lucky and finding two, racing home on my bike to actually put them in the washing machine.


STEP 4 
After much thinking, finding out that part of an arm can be turned into a little bag, pouch, purse, whatever you may want to call it, to be used for your public transport card! And with the help of a red T-shirt (well, a tiny part, also found at the KOOK), a ring from a brochure and a button from, again, this great KOOK, it all became this:
