If you didn't know, next weekend we "spring forward". While I love longer days and the idea that summer is right around the corner, waking up an hour earlier just doesn't seem fun. So, I decided to make my morning a little tastier and a little brighter with skinny banana chocolate muffins, and a cute coffee cozy! 
The coffee cozy has been one of my recent sewing endeavors. I learned how to sew a button and how to adjust a pattern. I am clearly not an expert, but I am learning more and more with each project I try. I found a great tutorial on the blog "Love 2 create" (Here); this blog has a great step by step tutorial with pictures if you would like to create your own coffee cozy!
I think I had the most fun picking out the materials. Don't you love the surprise zebra print inside?!
I did have some difficulty finding the right size. The first one I made, I traced a Starbuck's coffee sleeve to create a pattern, however it was a little too small for the big travel cup I normally take to work. After a little trial and error I adjusted the original pattern to fit my bigger cup!
Now that you know about the coffee cozy, I bet you really want to know about those skinny banana chocolate muffins! Did I mention they were SKINNY? Oh, and absolutely delicious! I will share the recipe with you tomorrow, so check back!
For now, enjoy your last week of "sleeping-in" before the time changes next Sunday!
With Love,
Katie M.
