frozen fruit*

i joined Pinterest about 2 weeks ago, created 11 boards regarding photography, decorating, crafting, things to remember for the future, etc... and have already pinned 223 things and liked 9. i probably spend too much time exploring others' "pins", but i think the idea of Pinterest is genius. in the past, i have bookmarked everything i see online that i don't want to forget and then very quickly have hundreds of bookmarks and no idea what each is for. Pinterest is set up in a very organized and simple way and honestly, i'm just kinda in love with it. i've been so inspired to try so many things because the creativity and great ideas of others is literally at.my.fingertips!

















i was inspired by a few women and their idea of a Pinterest Challenge... to DO your own spin on something you pin.

so here goes my Pinterest Challenge #1 - frozen fruit*

*fruit that is dipped in chocolate and then frozen

what you will need:












(oats not pictured)

frozen banana bites.
(originally seen here)













my recipe isn't vegan, but i did use natural peanut butter!
and instead of coconut, i sprinkled on some oats from a Bear Naked granola mixture.

chocolate kiwi popsicles.
(originally seen here)
















my chocolate coating wasn't as smooth and crispy... but then again i didn't use coconut oil as the recipe calls for either...

NONETHELESS, both treats were fun to make and yummy to eat! and i am left with one final concluding thought... you really can dip/coat ANYTHING in chocolate!
