Pumpkin Spice Latte Slime

November 19, 2018

Yes. We. Did. Do. That.

Calling all fall fans. We have managed to make the most iconic fall drink into an amazing slime that you (and your kids!) will LOVE! Oh and did I mention that it really smells delicious?

Now, this slime is actually a combination of two different slime recipes. A mix of our classic slime recipe and a fluffy version. But don’t worry, they are both really easy to make!

Now, before we get started, there are a few special things that you will need for this slime.

And containers. You can use a ziploc baggie, but they are hard and don’t work as well. I really recommend these containers. They are a great size, super cheap and keep the slime in great shape for playing with later!

Ingredients to make pumpkin spice latte slime:

Ingredients:

1 airtight container
1 cup white glue
1 cup shaving cream
1 cup foaming hand wash
¾ tsp baking soda
1 tbsp contact solution
5 oz clear glue
½ cup water
½ tsp baking soda
Acrylic paint: latte, caramel, and brown
1 tbsp contact solution
Pumpkin pie scented fragrance
Coffee scented fragrance
Brown glitter
Small bowl

How to make pumpkin spice latte slime:

In a bowl, measure out 1 cup white glue.
Add 1 cup shaving cream. Shaving cream is a little funky to measure so a little extra won’t hurt it! 🙂
Mix together and add 1 cup of foaming hand wash.
Mix well. Your slime should be super foamy.
Add in 1 tsp of cornstarch and about 1 tsp of body lotion. These will help your slime stretch and be fluffy.
Next add in ¾ – 1 tsp of baking soda. (Start with ¾ of a tsp and add more during kneading if you need to. Baking soda is what will thicken your slime up.)
Finally, add in contact saline solution. Start with 1 tbsp. If you need to add a bit more, you can. Saline solution makes the slime less sticky. You will know you have enough when the slime pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Knead the slime.
Set aside. This will be the whipped topping to your pumpkin spice latte.
In a small bowl, pour 5 oz of clear glue.
Add ½ cup of water and stir.
Sprinkle in ½ tsp baking soda .
Add a few drops of both pumpkin pie and coffee fragrance oils. Stir.
Add acrylic paint. I used a mix of latte, caramel and brown.
Sprinkle in brown glitter.
Stir well.
Add 1 tsp of contact solution. Stir and then knead.
If the slime needs to be thickened, add a bit more baking soda. If the slime needs to be less sticky, add more contact solution.
Layer your brown coffee slime and top with a fluffy whipped topping slime swirl.

When you swirl your slime together, it reminds me of the cool coffee designs with the swirls.

I have to say, this pumpkin spice latte slime is one of my favorites that we have made. It smells amazing. And the two different textures make it super fun to play with!

Football Stadium Sugar Cookies

August 27, 2018

I love several things in life.

Puppies.

Target.

Concerts.

But I really have a love for cookies and football. And these Easy Football Stadium Cookies are a perfect mix of two of my favorite things!

The sugar cookies are actually my Grandma’s recipe. Ok, well, they are a friend of my Grandma’s (shout out to Kathy! Woop! Woop!) but my Grandma did write it on an index card and include in her cookbook of favorite recipes. So I feel like it kind of counts. She makes them every Christmas. They are perfect for busting out the cookie cutters with.

But today, Grandma’s cookies are getting brought out for fall. I may love cookies, but I’ll be honest. I am not talented in the cookie decorating department. So when I say that these are easy and that even I was able to make them look good, I mean that they are truly, 100% super simple.

I love the little ‘people’ in the stands behind the field goal. And sugar crystals? Those are my favorite! This is essentially the sugar cookie of my dreams. My favorite cookie recipe. My favorite sprinkles. And my favorite sport.

Before you start. Here are few recommendations on things you will need to make these Easy Football Stadium Cookies:

Baking Mat – If you don’t have some of these yet, please do yourself a favor and get some. They are inexpensive and I promise you that you will use them 1,000,000 times. Don’t believe me on their awesomeness? Check out the thousand+ 5 star reviews.
Parchment Paper – You need it. You can’t make these without it. I like to buy the parchment paper that is pre-cut. In the long run it is cheaper. And now I’m spoiled by not having to tear it. I know, first world problems.
Sprinkles – The right sprinkles are key. You need the little ball sprinkles to represent all of the fans cheering in the crowd. These sprinkles scream happy, so I’m sure you will use them on everything – ice cream, pretzels, cookies, etc. I consider it an investment. Ok, maybe not, but I really like these! 🙂
Green Sugar Crystals – Sometimes I am highly annoyed with how difficult it can be for me to find sprinkles in basic colors at our local stores. And sugar crystals aren’t any different. I try to stock up with the seasons (St. Patrick’s Day or Christmas for green) but sometimes, they just can’t be found. If you can’t find them at your local store, Amazon is (always) a good option.

Melt white candy melts according to package instructions.
Place the melted candy melts in a ziploc or bakery bag. Cut a tiny hole in the corner or use a fine tip.
On parchment paper, pipe out a ‘Y’ shape or field goal shape. Allow to set while you decorate your cookies.
Frost the top half of the cookie in vanilla frosting.
Dip the cookie into small round sprinkles.
Frost the bottom half with green frosting.
Sprinkle green sugar crystals over it.
Pick a field goal and stick to the center of your cookie.
