Heartwork is a program that raises money for art supplies for kids who are staying at Target House and getting treatment at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Each year, Target curates a group of artists to participate and asks each of them to create and donate artwork based on a theme. This year’s theme was simple: Hope. I wanted to make something that really resonated with the kids, and thought that Charlotte’s Webwas a wonderful place to start—a story of both hope and friendship.

Pink Icing Petits Fours

- Amy Atlas Entertaining Ideas - Country Living

These looks scrumptious and so easy to make!!

Turn premade pound cake into chichi petits fours.

"People will swear these are from a fancy bakery," says Atlas of this tempting shortcut. To follow her lead: Use a serrated knife to cut the crust off a pound cake, then slice the cake into one-inch squares. Place them on a cooling rack with parchment paper underneath, pour icing over the squares, and let set for an hour. Atlas's 60-second icing recipe? Mix four tablespoons of water to two cups of sifted confectioner's sugar. Tint the mixture by stirring in a bit of gel food-coloring.
