			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This looks like a fun software to have and would make a great &#8220;rainy day&#8221; kid&#8217;s craft project this summer.   I was thinking it would be fun to make a homemade banner using the templates they provide for a festive, personalized touch to any party, occasion or holiday.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re like me, you not only enjoy being crafty with paper and other crafting supplies, but you also like to make crafty-style food.  So, I&#8217;ve decided to start posting articles about &#8220;food craft&#8221; ideas.  What do I mean by &#8220;food crafts?&#8221;  Basically, I&#8217;m talking about getting creative with the presentation of food.  For example, you can make regular cupcakes&#8230;or you can do something unique and creative in how you decorate or present them.  </p>
<p><span id="more-566"></span>With Valentine&#8217;s Day coming this month, I thought I&#8217;d post a link to a recent &#8220;crafty food&#8221; idea I saw on the Oprah Winfrey show that had creative ideas for celebrating New Year&#8217;s Eve.  One of the items on the show was literally called &#8220;Strawberry Champagne Sparkler Cupcakes.&#8221;  I thought this idea would work great for a creative Valentine&#8217;s Day dessert or even for celebrating a wedding anniversary, and so on.</p>
<p>Basically, it is mini cupcakes made with champagne and served with strawberries in a champagne flute.  There is champagne in the cupcakes, in the frosting, and for soaking the strawberries.  It looks really festive and fun.  You can see a picture of them and get the recipe (which they say is low in fat) on Oprah&#8217;s site by following <a href="http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Low-Fat-DC-Cupcakes-New-Years-Eve-Strawberry-Champagne-Sparkler-Cupcakes_1" target="_blank">this link</a>.</p>
<p>I also came across recommendations for inexpensive champagne that doesn&#8217;t taste inexpensive, in case the idea of baking with champagne sounds extremely expensive.  Yeah, it&#8217;s not tap water, but hopefully these champagne options (approximately $15 or less) will help you out, if this dessert is something you want to try.  Option 1: <a id="ctl00_BodyContent_ctrList_ctrResults_rptResultsList_ctl02_ctrProduct_mProductName_mAction" title="Cristalino Brut Rose Cava" href="http://www.wine.com/V6/Cristalino-Brut-Rose-Cava/wine/73471/detail.aspx" target="_blank">Cristalino Brut Rose Cava</a>   Option 2 : <a href="http://www.wine.com/v6/search/?term=Zardetto%20Prosecco%20Brut" target="_blank">Zardetto Prosecco Brut </a></p>
<p>Happy Crafting (and eating) to you,</p>
<p>AJ</p>
