Mother's Day 2013

This year,i have decided to make my mom something for mother's day.Although Mother's day is not an official holiday or whatnot, it's not wrong to celebrate.Plus i think she should know that she is loved and appreciated.
I have been thinking of what to get for her.My ideas have been around since last year but i never really put a start to it.So this year,I was determined to get it done.No matter how big or small the job is.
To me,it's not the thought that counts(okay,maybe yeah,sure a little) but it's the effort that counts. Luckily for me, i love making things.So i have decided to make her a chocolate dipped marshmallow and a mother's day card.

it's really easy!all you need is:
1.marshmallow
2.semi-sweet chocolate(i bought dark chocolate because the shop ran out of semi-sweet)
3.sprinkles or white chocolate(this is alternative)

first cut off as much chocolate as you want(depends on how much marshmallows you're dealing with),place it in a microwave-safe bowl and place it in the microwave for 30 seconds.Then mix it well.put in the microwave again for 30 seconds.repeat the steps until the chocolate is melted.
 Then,use a fork to hold the marshmallow(i use my hands haha) and dip it gently in the chocolate.place it in a freeze paper(i use a plate oh gosh im bad).while it's still drying,add sprinkles on top to give a little decoration.
you can just serve it like just like that but since it's a gift,i place it in a jar.

i made a simple tag and wrote something behind it.Also,if you want,you can dip that whole fat good-lookin' marshmallow instead of half like mine.
