With the hustle and bustle of school activities there's always a need for a few DIY's to make it a little more convenient and fun.
Plastic Pocket
Everyone can use an extra pocket. Stuck to the front of a book, these keep a class schedule in plain view. Look for self-adhesive plastic business-card holders or schedule holders in office-supply stores, and affix wherever you like on the cover.
Pocket Fold

Did you know any cake or brownie mix can be converted into a cookie mix just by adding 2 ingredients!? 2 (small or med eggs), or 1 (jumbo egg). Plus 1/2 cup of oil, that's it!
I made my* low carb mousse* with a sugar free brownie mix. You can tweak this recipe any which way you'd like with various flavored cake mixes. The Red Velvet Over The Moon Pies were amazing!! For that particuliar filling I prepared my cream cheese/Mascarpone recipe: 8oz. cream cheese and or Mascarpone (I use both together). 1/4 cup powder sugar. 1/2 cup whipped cream or Cool Whip.
Beat until smooth and fluffy.
Once your moon pie cookies are filled with the fluffy filling, you can also add any seasonal fresh fruit.
Whether it be after school or anytime of the day.... these are OVER THE MOON DELICIOUS!
