Chicken Salad Sandwiches

I made chicken salad sandwiches for after the match.

Tennis anyone?

I used white bread and wheat bread - and a big cheat with the chicken salad (I used the Trader Joe's).

Tennis Ornaments

I found these tennis themed ornaments on the Midwest Sports website and they are only $5 each. I think that is a great deal. This would be a cute gift to give your tennis partner or coach.

Sorry!

Hi  Tetnnis Fans - I am sorry that I haven't been posting on a regular basis. I have some great ideas for this blog and I will posting on a regular basis in the next week! So keep checking back!

Easy Tennis Cookies

These cookies are super simple to make. You just need some plain chocolate covered store bought cookies and some yellow frosting in a pen.

I used Keebler chocolate covered graham crackers. Using a steady hand pipe the tennis balls in the middle of each cookie.

So easy and super fun to serve after practice or for dessert at a tennis match.

Tennis Chocolates

I made these super easy tennis chocolates which would look cute in a little box or  bag and absolutely darling on top of a cupcake.

I used a simple chocolate mold.

Then I melted some chocolate and placed a little into each mold and taped the mold gently on my counter to eliminate air bubbles. After about a half hour I had my mini tennis chocolates. I think these would also look cute in white chocolate.
