Feature Friday-Sassy Scoops

Today I am so excited to be featuring Sassy Scoops!


They are a group of 8 fabulous women dishing out the scoop on Utah's local businesses. (Sorry kids, this one is local). Oh, did I mention that I am one of those women?! ha ha Does that mean I am featuring myself? uh, er, Anyway...

I have a blast with these ladies and I think you will just love them too! So here we go with the one minute interview:

What is your favorite crafting tool or secret weapon?

vanessasassyVanessa: I like to BUY others crafting genius products the only crafting I really do besides that is crafting with my kids. My secret weapon for this is Mod Podge, boy do they love slather that stuff on and make things all shiny and sparkly!

profile_QuinnQuinn: I'm not much of a crafter either. I do love to do art projects with my kids, whipping out paints and brushes, markers, crayons, scissors and construction paper just about every day.


camilleCamille: There is no creativity in my bones - I can't even think of something creative in how to answer your question! :) Pretty much around our house, glue sticks and glitter are the extent of my creative brilliance.

farnsworth_150x150Emily: Um, I don't craft so my secret weapon is Etsy.






sell-075eeEvonne:My only crafting tool that I use whether I am scrapbooking or not would be my big ol' paper cutter...or what I like to call my "slicer-dicer"!

Kalli Profile 003Kalli:My secret craft weapon is google. But now it's not so much a secret now anymore is it? Geez...





stephanieaStephanie: I am probably the least crafty person in existence. But I do love hot glue guns. The 2 semi crafty things I do a year require a hot glue gun and I can seriously RAWK it.

Righty oh, probably why these ladies are reviewers, not craft bloggers. ;) But, we do have a fabulous time together. Sometimes, we bring along the kiddos and the hubs and sometimes it's just us girls.

Last time, we had a big girl's tea party (my very first!) sponsored by Dippidees. You have got to see this cake! It was all gold and shimmery!

They also made cookies to match everyone's blogs! See the cookies up close here. See mine on the right below. So fun!



Jump on over to see the full review. Oh, and did I mention the giveaway (closes Friday, Jan 15th)?! Win a dozen of their yummy cupcakes!

This review was definitely the little guy's favorite! Dinosaurs, bugs, and goo, what could be better?!






And how could this review be complete without sharing the Sassies favorite local distractions!

Vanessa: Whole Foods in Sugarhouse, Beehive Bazaar and Cafe Madrid

Quinn: I’m a HUGE Zupas fan – give me panini and chocolate fondue any day and I’m your BFF for life! I also love Gardner Village, especially Anastasia’s Attic.

Emily: Five Guys Burgers & Fries followed by a trip to Anthropologie followed by dessert at Frogurt

Camille: Cupcake Chic, Sweet Tooth Fairy, Down East Basics, Thanksgiving Point

What a great group of gals!

I'm not a chocolate person, but the thing that's still sticking with me is that chocolate cake......looks perfect!

vanessa said...

lol I think we need a craft night where YOU teach us we are a bit pathetic with our answers! ;)

Kalli Ko said...

Seriously, I think we are lacking the in the craft department. This is why we eat at most of the places we go to. Because those who can't craft, eat.

Gospel truth right there.

Emily Hill said...

I second Kalli's comment. I much prefer hot chocolate to hot glue. But this is a really fun group--thanks for featuring SassyScoops! We love having you as one of our Sassies!
