from Hoosier Hill Farms on Amazon and ordered myself 2 bags immediately.\u00a0 One to practice with and make the barf, and one to . . . uh, eat.\u00a0 Unfortunately for me, only one bag arrived so keep that in mind if you choose to order from Hoosier Hill Farms.\u00a0 <em>*at the time of me writing this, Amazon has refunded my money for the second bag, and Hoosier Hill Farms has only sent me an email saying they are &#8220;sorry I filed a claim against them&#8221;.<\/em>\u00a0 Thanks to Amazon for rectifying the situation immediately.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2ZmrPNuei3g\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Unicorn Barf<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div>Ingredients:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>1\/4 cup butter (60 g)<\/li>\n<li>2 cups mini marshmallows (116 g)<\/li>\n<li>2 1\/2 cups coloured marshmallows (119 g) (I got my Marshmallows <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/gp\/product\/B00FC9UPVI\/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/DSC_4528blog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-5315\" title=\"Unicorn Barf\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/DSC_4528blog.jpg\" alt=\"Unicorn Barf\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/DSC_4528blog.jpg 800w, http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/DSC_4528blog-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>Procedure:<\/div>\n<div>\n<ol>\n<li>Melt butter and marshmallows in a microwavable bowl. \u00a0Heat for 30 second intervals, stirring until completely melted.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Mix in coloured marshmallows, stirring gently and with as few strokes as possible.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Using greased spoons (I used butter), drop spoonfuls of the marshmallow mixture onto a silicone mat, or parchment paper.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Allow to cool completely.<\/li>\n<li>Serve, or store in a sealed container for 2-3 days.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I&#8217;m off to help Sparkle Toes feel better.\u00a0 Maybe Lucky Charms will help.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_target addtoany_list\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a class=\"a2a_button_facebook_like addtoany_special_service\" data-href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=5298\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_twitter_tweet addtoany_special_service\" data-count=\"none\" data-url=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=5298\" data-text=\"Unicorn Barf\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_google_plusone addtoany_special_service\" data-annotation=\"none\" data-href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=5298\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_pinterest\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/pinterest?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcookiescupcakesandcardio.co%2F%3Fp%3D5298&amp;linkname=Unicorn%20Barf\" title=\"Pinterest\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/icons\/pinterest.png\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Pinterest\"\/><\/a><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nwpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poor poor Sparkle Toes (my Unicorn) hasn&#8217;t been feeling very well lately.\u00a0 She must have an upset stomach, as she has BARFED all over the place!\u00a0 What the..?
