Tiny Turtle Snacks

You’ll need:

small pretzels
Rolos, unwrapped
walnut halves
wax paper
cookie sheet
oven

preheat oven to 275F. Set out pretzels onto waxed lined sheet. Place Rolo on top of each pretzel. Bake for as long as it takes to slightly melt the Rolo. Remove from oven. Gently press walnut into Rolo. Let cool completely.

Also looks great at Christmas with Red and green M n’ M’s instead of walnuts.

Garage Ceiling Storage Solution

1. A shop with exposed rafters
I suppose you could rig up some sort of rail system on the ceiling, but that would be a lot of work. I suppose you’ll also need to have a low ceiling, a step stool, or just be tall.

2. Some scrap wood
Something flat and long that you can rip to the desired width

3. Nails

4. Plastic tubs
I found mine at the dollar tree, but they’re sold just about everywhere. You’ll need to do some measuring to figure out how many you need to fill your rafters. Make sure to get the kind that are see through!

5. Handles
You could buy these premade, but handles are shockingly expensive and I couldn’t find any in a size I liked, so I chose to build them from PVC and bolts.
