You see something you like, it can be at a friends house, a magazine or your favorite store but it is over priced and so you Knock it off and make it look so amazing it is a Knock Out. It doesn’t have to be exact. You may be inspired by something but the colors are wrong so you change it and do a knock off that fits your style and color and it is a Knock Out. Maybe you have something at a restaurant and re=create it and it is amazing you just had a Knock Off Knock Out moment, share those with us. If you have a picture of the original great, if not just share about it.
**You need to create a post about your item. (I suggest opening 2 browser windows so you can go back and forth-it just goes faster.) In your post you need to add my KNOCK OFF KNOCK OUT button (copy the code in the scroll box under the box and copy it into your post) or add the link to my post so people can find the party.
**You need to add the permalink (NOT your blog address). If you click on your post title, copy that code that appears in the address bar and then post it to MckLinky.
If you come back and your post is not here, it is because you forgot to do one of the above things, just fix it and re-post. I have been trying to come by and let people know if they forgot something but with our home school year underway, I can not guarantee that I can do that this week. We enjoy every new post and I appreciate everyone who has posted the party buttons on their side bar. You guys really do inspire me.
I can’t wait to see your projects:
I wanted to share a recipe that I got off of someone’s blog but I can’t find the blog-if it’s yours let me know and I will link to you.
PUMPKIN CRUNCH
15 oz can of pumpkin
1 12 oz can evaporated milk
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 box yellow cake mix
1 cup melted butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans
whipped topping
Preheat oven 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 pan. In a large bowl combine pumpkin, evap. milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Pour pumpkin mixture into a pan then sprinkle dry cake mix on top, then top with pecans. Finally top with melted butter.
Bake for 50-55 minutes until golden brown. Cool a little then serve with cool whip or ice cream.
This is good warm or cold but I liked the warm best.
