No bake Cookies and a wreath

We have a church dinner tomorrow and I haven't felt like cooking lately so I decided to fall back on my favorite no bake cookie recipe so here we go:

In a pan on medium heat melt/stir together 1/2 cup butter, 2 cups sugar, 1/2 cup milk, and 4 Tsp cocoa powder. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Take off heat and add 1 tsp. vanilla, 1/2 cup peanut butter, and 4-5 cups oats. Using a cookie scoop or spoon put mounds on wax paper until cool.

Note: these are NOT gluten free. I can eat them because they have no wheat but oats do have gluten.

Now onto the wreath. I have been slightly obsessed with wreaths lately. I bought a grapevine wreath at a garage sale and decided to try to make an Easter wreath. I am pretty excited with how it turned out. Here is hoping it sells at the flea market.
