New Team Member Spotlight: mysweetserendipity




For those of you that follow my blog you also know that I am a member of Team Eeat. I have been elected to welcome the new members to our team, so in addition to welcoming them on the Team Eeat Blog, I thought welcoming them here would also be great exposure for my new Team mates!!
Team Eeats is continually growing!! Which is AWESOME for you followers as it means there are going to be more delectable treats for you to choose from!! Yes I know there is already a HUGE selection to choose from, but really can you have too much dessert....I think not!



I would like to welcome our newest Member Darlene of Mysweetserendipity! I know how all of you blog readers like to get the inside scoop about featured artist so I did a little interview with Darlene.

What is your favorite treat in your shop and why?
Oh any and everything chocolate!!

Tell us a little about yourself, i.e. family, favorite color, food, etc
Well I have been married to my best friend for almost 9 yrs now and we live on a small hobby farm which is both our true love. We have 3 boys "dogs" Buster, Bubba, and Barney who are the light of my life, we raise chickens for eggs, have goats horses and cats also. I love primitive antiques and you will find me most of the summer out working in the large veggie gardens we have (a true country gal in jeans and t shirts) over the last couple of years we have acquired state and county licensing to bake and also do canning for local farmers markets. LOVE my life!! I also am love to create unique altered memory books. Favorite Color BARN RED of course LOL

Who is your favorite chef (if you have one!)
Love Paula Dean and Sandra Lee

Do you sell your goodies any where else besides Etsy?
From my blog, in a couple of local stores and at markets.

Finally, what are some of your other favorite online sites or stores?
Oh I love all everything about Etsy and am proud to be a part of this great handmade site. All the gals on the team EEAT have some wonderful products and I love seeing what everyone comes up with! I like to say "live life joyfully, create something new"




Now what Darlene hasn't mentioned is that she has another Etsy shop where she creates primitives. If her sweet treats don't tantalize you then maybe her adorable primitives will. So go on get in your recliner, get comfy and take a leisurely trip through Darlene's stores! I am sure you will fall in love with something!!
Be Happy, be safe!
Hugs!

DelectableDelights : Yummmy Member of Team Eeat




Good Morning all!!!I have started to partake in all of the yummy treats from my team members in Team Eeat!! My first order was with Delectable Delights or DD as I like to call her in chat!! I ordered the:Chocolate Covered Cherry Sundae Cupcake (TM)Boston Cream Sundae Cupcake (TM)


Let me say, if you have not ordered from DD, you are missing out on the moistest cup cakes you have ever had!!! They were more than yummy!! When they arrived, I had to fight my son off as he was hovering, waiting for me to open the package. Once he found out that they were cup cakes and that they had chocolate on them..............well I couldn't get rid of him!!! I was forced to share........which I was not happy about.......I knew I should of locked myself in the bathroom!!!
My favorite was the Cherry one, it had big chunks of maraschino cherries in it, and the rich chocolate topping was to die for!! So I say to you all ORDER FROM DD, she has some GREAT stuff.....I know I will be getting more..........hmmmm now I just have to figure out how to hide them.........

Double Dipped Sweets

Well I have be partaking in my teams delicious items again.....hmmm I wonder if they are going to chip in for the weight loss plan I am going to have to get on...or maybe for my gym membership......

Well it has been a BUSY month for "partaking"..... my first indulgence was Double Dipped Sweets Sea Salted Caramel Apple.





This apple was delicious, it was the perfect balance of sweet, salty and tart. Her apples are HUGE...I think she may have some magic dust that she sprinkles on them to enlarge them...I know I have not seen apples that big here in AZ!! The apple was big enough for me to share (not willingly) with both of my kids. When you bite into the slice of apple you get the immediate crunch from the fresh crisp apple, then you taste the sweet Carmel and then your taste buds are assaulted by the salty goodness of the sea salt. The Carmel is also a perfect consistency, not to sticky....it won't glue your teeth together like some other apples!!

Well I also got some little presents in that package from DDS (as I call her in chat) she sent me a sample of her Ginger bread popcorn.




All I can say is that popcorn puts the kettle corn that you get at the fair to shame!! It was scrumptious!!! Crunchy and sweet and like taking a big bite of a gingerbread man!!


The other little gift I got was her Coconut Haystack Bark, omg it was soooooooooooooo good!! Just the right balance between chocolaty goodness and coconut. Your tongue is coated by the delicious chocolate and then there is a slight chewy crunch from the coconut.

Let's just say I had to fight off the kids from each one of my "gifts". Hmmm I think I should of locked myself in the bedroom, I will have to do that next time I buy from DDS!!

Give your family a treat from DDS you won't be disappointed!! I also suggest the following apples also......heheheh I told you it was a busy month of "partaking"!!!







Apple Pie Caramel Apple and Fall Delight Caramel Apple
