Ok folks, this one is truly for hot pepper lovers only... Ma says my G-Pop-D would pick cherry peppers right from the plant and pop them into his mouth like M&M's:@) While I can't quite do that, I did clean these little beauties very well (a melon baller works great), and made some very tasty Stuffed Hot Cherry Peppers with Ham & Cheese. This is a fantastic appy, and a very substantial snack. Oh and, can you feel it??? Football season is right around the corner, this would be a great football munchie... I considered it a light lunch, and have to say, I may be planting cherry peppers every year going forward!
Use your favorite Italian Salad Dressing...
Oh Momma!
And we made Barbie a super simple Swing Top with Ribbon Tie. This is a no-sew project that can be made using any cotton fabric, and I've provided a free pattern. The Phillies are a little hot right now and we're looking forward to play-off baseball:@)
✂What I did:
- Cut one from pattern using cotton fabric or fat quarter, can be found at Dollar Tree, Walmart and many stores. (My logo fabric is old and from my stash.)
- Fold sides over 1/4", crease with fingernail. Glue down, I used Aleene's Tacky Glue.
- Fold bottom over 1/4", crease with fingernail and glue down.
- Center 18" of 1/4" wide ribbon over top of fabric and glue on.
- Embellish as desired with bling, glitter, etc.
- Dress doll and make another one in a different color!

Easy-peasy:@)
Stuffed Hot Cherry Peppers with Ham & Cheese
As many as you'd like:
- Cut top off of pepper, scoop out seeds and membranes.
- Wrap ham around a cube of cheddar cheese. Stuff into pepper.
- Pour Italian dressing over ham/cheese.
- Serve with food picks.
Have a Happy Day:@)
They look so pretty, I love those little forks!
