Recently, we had a good old-fashioned movie night at home with Minions, and I baked up some adorable whoopie pies to go along with it!  This recipe is kid-friendly, so everyone can enjoy baking and decorating them.  :)


Minions Whoopie Pies recipe on Diane's Vintage Zest! #ad #MinionsMovieNight #cookies #dessert


The cookies in the whoopie pie are a luscious lemon flavor, with bits of lemon zest throughout.  The filling is a light and airy blueberry and lemon zest whipped cream cheese frosting.  You know that cream cheese frosting is my favorite kind, so I had to include it!  I used blue food coloring in the filling because I thought it would look like their little pants.  Right?  :)

Lastly, I think the Minions Whoopie Pies look adorable!  It's so much fun decorating them by choosing one or two eyeballs, deciding on if they'll smile or look shocked, and designing their goggle straps as well.  :)

Are you ready to take a bite now?

But first, back to the inspiration for this sweet dessert...


Minions Whoopie Pies recipe on Diane's Vintage Zest! #ad #MinionsMovieNight #cookies #dessert


I must admit that I'm one of those adults who loves cartoons and sometimes borrows nieces and nephews just to have a reason to see the movie in theaters.  Actually, I was bummed that after seeing both Despicable Me and Despicable Me 2 with the little ones, I missed out on Minions in theaters.  That's why when the movie came out on 12/8/15 on DVD, I rushed to Target to buy it!  I bought the Target-Exclusive Deluxe Minions Metalpak Blu-ray/DVD, which has 40 minutes of extra content.  The DVD case was just too cute not to buy!  There was also an exclusive $5 Target gift card deal upon purchase, so it was a total no-brainer.  :)  Besides, I was able to pick up all of the ingredients from my shopping list.  Easy peasy!

Now, let's get to the recipe!

5 Useful Tips for Off-Season Storage on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #ZiplocSavesSpace #organization


Recently, I was at my parent's house when I noticed a sneaky pile of cushions and blankets in the corner of the living room.  Being a neat freak, I immediately noticed it, even though my mom had scooted a bookshelf over to try and hide it.  :)  You have to understand that I am such an organization aficionado, that as a kid I would organize the kitchen, garage, closets, and every other room in the house for fun.  Basically, she's used to me poking around in her closets!

So when I asked my mom about what was going on, she told me that the storage closet was already full!  When the holidays come around, my family loooves hanging out here because there are three couches, plus lots of comfy pillows and blankets.  That means she has a stash of guest blankets that only need to come out for the big holiday parties.  Also, this summer she bought new cushions for her patio chairs.  Now that winter is rolling around, she decided to store them inside to avoid weathering

Well that explains it!


5 Useful Tips for Off-Season Storage on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #ZiplocSavesSpace #organization


I suggested that we maximize the space in her closet by using Ziploc® Space Bags®, which create three times the storage space.  Get this... my mom has never used them before!  Immediately, I decided that I needed to share a few useful tips on how to use Ziploc® Space Bags® with both her and all of you.  After I show you how well they worked for my mom, then I'll share those helpful hints.  First stop, Lowe's!  You can find the Ziploc® Space Bags® in the Home Organization section, in the Storage aisle.  Easy peasy!

So here are the items that I started off with in the Ziploc® Space Bags®.  I stuffed them in there a bit, so I thought they were already compressed.


5 Useful Tips for Off-Season Storage on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #ZiplocSavesSpace #organization


Nuh uh!  I always feel like it's magic when I see HOW MUCH space is saved!  I mean, on the box it says it compresses up to 3 times the space compared to uncompressed storage volume.  I believe it!!!

Tell me a little bit about yourself!

My grandma taught me to sew when I was ten, maybe even younger, but I remember ten, haha!  After that it was a whirlwind of bobbins, needles and threads.  Any chance I had to use the skills, I did, always trying to make my own halloween costumes or set pieces for school plays and projects. I got into sewing plushies when I needed some gifts for my four siblings one very broke holiday season and then I was hooked. I haven’t really looked back since. I love it too much to stop.


Where did the name of your store come from?

“Flanerie” is one of my favorite words in the vocabulary that I know and my favorite material to work with is felt. I guess it just felt right when they came together and it stuck. Ultimately it made me smile when I said it and I think that how I knew it’d work. Can’t argue with a smile. :)


Felt Flanerie feature + GIVEAWAY and promo on Shop Small Saturday Showcase at Diane's Vintage Zest!  #shopsmall


Why did you start making goods for Felt Flanerie?

I got into sewing plushies when I needed some gifts for my four siblings one very broke holiday season. When I saw my two year old sister open the gift, it was hard to ignore just how much it made her smile, whether she really knew what it was or not.


What is your favorite item?

Favorite item right now is Mr. Mint.  He's a one of a kind XL plushie and he’s made with different shades of minty green hues, mint being one of my favorite colors. His shape is a cuddle conductor, his size is conducive to those seeking unscripted play and imaginative fun, and his minty shades are minty fresh. ;) He can work as a decorative throw in your living room or even as a child’s plush play toy.

Stress-Free Holiday Gifting with Fragrance Gift Sets on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #GiftingAMemory


This year, I feel like the holidays have been impossibly busy, and I am doing my best to make sure that everything is as stress-free as possible.  One thing that I plan to do is make my holiday shopping list as streamlined as possible but still make sure I give thoughtful presents too!  One way I'm doing this is with COTY Holiday Gift Sets, because there are so many options to fit everyone from my niece, to my boyfriend, and everyone in between!


In particular for my boyfriend, I knew that I was going to get him a fragrance right away for the holidays.  For one thing, he's a guy who likes to "suit up."  He can kick back with the best of them, but when he's in professional mode, he has his whole set-up on lock-down: tailored suit, pocket square, and a manly fragrance.  It's pretty dashing if you ask me.  :)

In fact, his scent is one of the first things I remember for our first date.  We had texted, talked on the phone for hours, and I had met up with his friends and him, but we hadn't spent any time alone together yet.  Maybe it's crazy, but we decided to go to a beer festival TWO HOURS away from where I lived.  When he picked me up, I remember stepping into his car, and it had the scent that I now associate with him, in the good way for sure.  :)  It was easily the longest first date I've ever been on, which turned out to be a very good thing!

Yes, I removed the sticker before giving it to him.  :)

Take a Holiday Break with Dunkin' Donuts on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad


This weekend, I was on a shopping mission with my grocery list in hand, my map app with a preloaded route with all the stops to be made, and my boyfriend to carry a growing list of bags.  We started pretty early on Sunday with errands, gift shopping at a bunch of different stores, and the regular grocery trip.  Seriously, I crossed off SOOO many things off of my to do list for the holidays.  Tiring, but so rewarding!


Take a Holiday Break with Dunkin' Donuts on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad


Near the end of our journey, we both needed a little break.  For a quick pick me up, we ended up at Dunkin' Donuts before braving the last bit of our errands.  We arrived just in time for their National Afternoon Latte and Macchiato Break promotion.  At first, I was going to get a small iced Latte, but when I found out that it was only $1.99 for the medium size, I totally upgraded!

Here are the deets: every day from 2 PM to 6 PM from November 30th through December 27th, medium hot or iced Lattes or Macchiatos are only $1.99 at all Dunkin' Donuts locations nationwide.  Basically, it's a great deal that you can enjoy every day through Christmas, when you need a holiday break the most!

Easy Grilled Broccolini Recipe

Easy Grilled Broccolini Recipe on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #NestleHoliday


It's December, so you know what that means: the holiday rush is on!  Since it's my first recipe this month, you are probably expecting an elaborate holiday dish... but truth be told, when things are so hectic, I hardly have time to cook!  That's why today, I'm sharing one of my favorite quick and easy recipes that I frequently use as an appetizer or side dish (my Easy Grilled Broccolini), along with one of my tried-and-true shortcuts.

I love how the broccolini is so flavorful and spicy, along with the nutty shavings of Pecorino Romano on top.  It also looks so green and gorgeous, don't you think?  There's also zero chopping involved and just a couple of ingredients needed to whip this up.  I think you'll be making this dish, even when you do have extra time to spare because it's just that delicious!


Easy Grilled Broccolini Recipe on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #NestleHoliday


First of all, let me know if you can relate to any of these situations.  Work hours are even longer these days due to the upcoming holidays, so when I get home, I want to eat something super quick to prepare.  It's dark out so early, that I just can't wait to get right home after a long day and stay inside (so no eating out or grocery shopping).  Family and friends pop over during the week and expect to catch up over a little dinner, sometimes unexpectedly!

Well, I found the perfect solution to all of those holiday predicaments: pizza and broccoli!  Actually, it's not just ANY pizza and broccoli, it's kicked up a notch: the CALIFORNIA PIZZA KITCHEN® Crispy Thin Crust Oven Ready Pizza, Sicilian variety and my Easy Grilled Broccolini!  See, it sounds SO much better and grown-up, right?

Why do I rely on this delicious combo?  It takes about 20 minutes from start to finish, including clean-up time, and it's so flavorful and fancy that no one will know how easy it was to get everything cooked up.


Easy Grilled Broccolini Recipe on Diane's Vintage Zest!  #ad #NestleHoliday


Step 1 of being prepared is to head to Walmart and get a CALIFORNIA PIZZA KITCHEN® Crispy Thin Crust Oven Ready Pizza, Sicilian or two.  It'll last in the freezer until you need it, so keep at least one on hand for emergencies!  While you're there, pick up the broccolini ingredients below!  Another reason this is a great dish is that you can buy the ingredients even a week beforehand, and they'll keep.  There's nothing worse than having your vegetables go bad before you have a chance to cook them!

Step 2 is to follow the easy directions on the back of the package.  While your pizza cooks for 16 - 17 minutes, that's when you get to make the recipe.  Let's get to it!

Noshkins Feature, Giveaway & Promo!


Happy December!  For today's feature on Shop Small Saturday Showcase, I have such a fun one for you from Noshkins.  When I first saw all of Connie's cute and crafty creations, I was obsessed!  If I'm being honest, I would love a set of her petit fours for myself even if they are made for kids...  They just look so scrumptious!

Actually, the set that Connie is giving away (stay tuned at the bottom of the post) is a sushi set that people of all ages will love!  But first, find out which special person inspired all of these creations, and check out some serious eye candy... literally!



*******************

Noshkins feature & GIVEAWAY on Shop Small Saturday Showcase at Diane's Vintage Zest!  #shopsmall #children #stuffedtoys #felt


Tell me a little bit about yourself!

I grew up in Central California on the Monterey Peninsula. I’ve worked as a graphic artist for over 35 years, mostly with my own home business, Connie Simon Design. I love color, typography, well-designed anything! Growing up in the 60s was great—a real do-it-yourself time of my life. Drawing, painting, macrame, sewing, print making; so much to experiment with! • In 2011 I made a set of play food out of felt for my then 3 year old grandson to use in his play kitchen. I hated the plastic food available and thought the wood food as potentially damaging (kids throw things!). His reaction was immediate joy and engagement. He inspired me to start Noshkins, Inc. in order to share my lovingly made items with others.


Where did the name of your store come from?

I went through so many name ideas before I came up with one that wasn’t taken. “Nosh” is a Yiddish word meaning “a snack or small item of food”. The addition addition of “kin” to imply tiny or child related, Noshkins was born.



Noshkins feature & GIVEAWAY on Shop Small Saturday Showcase at Diane's Vintage Zest!  #shopsmall #children #stuffedtoys #felt


Why did you start making goods for Noshkins?

I love producing things of quality and detail. My grandson was the original inspiration. There are plenty of products for children that are cheaply manufactured or overly simple in design. I wanted to share something that was beautiful and well made to delight and inspire both the child and adult. I’m looking into ways to let the special needs market know about Noshkins. I’ve been told they’d be great for kids with autism or other sensory processing challenges.


What is your favorite item?

Wow! That’s a tough one! Each item has its own “personality”. The tea party sets are so pretty. I guess I am partial to the tomato slice and broccoli floret. The first time I made the broccoli I used a kazillion french knots. The texture was great but, seriously??? Then inspiration hit. I can get a lot of broccoli out on one bath towel and the texture is perfect! I find myself giggling as I finish a piece. My newest set of sushi has a lot of texture and the “seaweed” is attached with velcro so kids can assemble some of the pieces.
