WELCOME TO THE WORTH MELTING FOR GIVEAWAY HOP!
It’s SPRING SEASON!!!! Although the world might be a little topsy-turvy right now, one thing isn’t changing, and that’s our seasons. The snow is slowly melting, the sun is shining a little longer and earlier in the day, and the flowers are blooming. I love Spring, and absolutely cannot wait to get outside to really take it all in and enjoy it. But for now, I’ll find ways to entertain myself indoors and occupy my time. And if you know me – that means BAKING!
My latest creation is this super delicious coffee-lover’s treat – Caramel Macchiato Cookie Cups! These delicious little sugar cookie cups are filled with an amazing espresso mousse, surrounded by caramel drizzle and espresso chips. They are SUPER easy to make, too! What a fun and delicious way to occupy some time in the kitchen 😉
Not a coffee fan? How about some of these:
- Apricot Cheesecake Cookie Cups
- Triple Chocolate Cookie Crunch Bars
- Banana Pudding Cupcakes
- Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies
No matter what you bake up – HAVE FUN!

I am organizing things in the house and reading to relax
I have been crafting and cooking!
I stay positive by spending time outside, gardening and trying not to watch the news too much.
I have been trying to keep in contact with friends and family and reaching out to people I haven’t talked to in a while.
Trying to keep my mind off this!
Thanks for sharing this giveaway with us!
I cook and bake with my kids and cuddle with my cats
One way I have been able to stay positive and survive this is me and my BF pick days that are “date days”, since he is considered essential and sto) has to work, and we cuddle up and binge watch our newest show “The Good Doctor”, we talk, laugh, and do anything together that helps us reconnect with each other and disconnect from the outside world. He is so amazing and has this way of making me feel like I am the only girl in the world. 🙂
Going for walks.
I have been praying and keeping a positive attitude.. Thanks for the giveaway.
Hi Jeni
Video chatting with friends help a lot!
I am getting things ready for baby #2!
We are taking the time to enjoy the time together!
I’ve been trying to eat right and stay healthy.
Baked myself a birthday cake today…decided to make the best of it as I am still okay!
Walking helps and turning OFF news.
I’m just trying to stay with my normal routing. Exercise is also very important.
I am reading positive affirmations and praying! I am also exercising every morning.
to stay positive I am avoiding all the posts on facebook about it
I have been using much of my time to work on seed planting and readying my gardens for planting. It always, in the best of times, gives me an immense feeling of peace and hopefulness. I am finding it to be doubly so this year as I am looking forward to growing wonderful veggies and flowers.
I’ve been doing a lot of reading and try not to pay attention to the news.
I am actually still working, and putting a smile on my face for customers!
We are playing more family games! We are also planting our garden as a family!
I’m trying to stay positive by taking my mind off of things. I’m making art and escaping reality a bit through movies and TV. Mostly, I am making sure I write down in a journal things I am grateful for each day.
i feel like our lives have not changed much? we are always family centered and now we have more time together!
I am staying positive by enjoying this time with my kiddos and playing lots of games. Thank you
I just try to keep busy with reading and movies
I have been staying positive by talking frequently with friends and family.
Listening to soothing music, and going for runs.
Watching lots of movies and catching up with family and friends via phone.
I’ve been working from home and eating healthy.
I read and talk to my sisters. I also try to ignore a lot of the post on Facebook.
Trying to laugh as much as possible. Leslie Jordan on Instagram is hilarious!
I am reading and exercising.
i kept talking with my bestie and family. The Tiger King helps too 🙂
I’ve been doing a lot of reading.
I’m just enjoying being able to sleep in and binge watch TV.
reading
I’ve been counseling people..depression and suicide is everywhere.
I watch TV.
I’m just trying to cuddle with my dogs as much as possible. No matter how horrible some stuff is, my dogs make everything better.
I been doing more giveaways and watching t v
Right now our lives haven’t changed much because i still have 3 essential workers. Other than school being out we are still as normal as ever.
I will be doing the same things I always do day in and day out.
I’ve been walking my dog frequently.
What we are doing to stay positive is talking on the phone more with relatives and video calling with our Granddaughter.
I have been doing pretty much the same as I always have.
reading self help books
Spending time outdoors with my kids
trying to stay upbeat for everyone been a rough time my brother in law and mother passed away in Jan and Feb now this been an awful 2020 for sure
First of all, I am by nature a solitary person and retired so I don’t feel as if my life has changed that much. I still take fur baby to the park every day and I go to the grocery store once a week, which is my normal routine. My biggest way to stay positive is to not watch the news or seek it out on the internet. Listening to them repeat the same doom and gloom over and over ad nauseum just increases anxiety. I look on the net in the morning for news from the last 24 hours and read the headlines. If it looks as if they are telling me something new or different (something other than regurgitating how many people have died and or contracted the virus), I read the article. After that, I am done with the news for the day
I’ve been allowed to work from home, so I’m feeling grateful that I still have a paycheck!
I’m just keeping my head down and doing what I need to do,every day I’m going to visit a sister on hospice at a care center,they are being nice enough to let us be there for her after they take our temps and ask us some questions otherwise I would be in quarantine at home watching movies like every one else but I want to be there for my sister who’s been there for me all my life.
I have been texting and talking on the phone with my family.
Spending lots of time playing with my toddler. The up side of being home is that its lots of time to bond with her 🙂
I guess I feel fortunate, in that not much has changed for me…aside from the kids being home. We’re trying to figure out the whole “learning at home” thing. Seems like the household chores (cooking/meals/snacks and cleaning) have doubled. We haven’t left the house in three weeks. My bf is still working, and he does the shopping since he’s already out. But, really, it hasn’t been a “negative” experience. We seem to be getting through it! 🙂
I’ve been cooking more often. Trying new recipes.
Lot’s of reading!
We watch comedies on TV and try to keep news to a minimum
I’m just living life to it’s fullest, not worrying about anything.
I check in on my elderly neighbor to make sure she has all she needs. It makes her feel cared for and it is good to put others ahead of yourself.
I’ve been watching movies, as I usually do.
We are staying home but keeping contact with our children and grandchildren as well as my friends from our senior center.
Playing with my cats.
I am spending a lot of time with my family . We are playing board games and cleaning the yard
i’m staying positive by spending my time doing things I like: movies, netflix, reading and taking long walks.
I broke my right foot and couldn’t walk or drive for 2 months, so I felt trapped at home. Once I was cleared to begin to walk again, this pandemic hit. Something that I do to feel uplifting is to focus on things that I can control right now, like eating healthy. I also exercise at home everyday.
I’m getting a lot of cleaning out done and love working in the yard getting my yard ready for flowers
I’m trading funny jokes and memes with my friends. And being thankful for grocery delivery.
Thanks for the contest.
I’ve been thankful for my toddler. He makes it hard to get too bogged down in worry when he’s smiling and giggling all the time

I don’t watch the news, read posts about on facebook and clearly let everyone know not to tag me in everything related to it unless its positive news.
Talking to my friends!
Our biggest bright spot is when my son and daughter in law bring our 2 grandsons by. We stay in the garage and they stand on the driveway. Can’t wait until we can give them all hugs again!!!!!! Stay safe everyone!

Lovely. My husband is eating some right now.
The cookie cups look delicious! Baking is a fun thing to do to stay positive during these crazy times!
