Caramel fails

I made something non vegan for a bake sale fundraiser thing. I used a caramel recipe that had condensed milk instead of the regular heavy cream. I thought it might be healthier. I don't know what went wrong, but it was hard as a rock. I had it come to softball stage but it wasn't right. Something was badly wrong.
So I wrapped them and am giving them away as "now and later" kind of candy. If you don't know what that is, it's fruity
 chewy candy. Well I guess mine will be carmely flavour now and laters. I think I might buy some of the right ingredients and try it again. It's really easy to clean up since you don't take it all the way to the hardball stage. That's complicated to take off a pan. I hate doing that. I have made peanut brittle, toffee, and other candies. This is my first time making caramel though. I do notice that it sticks really bad and burns... hmm. back to the kitchen it is!

just a question...

Is it hard to eat vegan when you're out with friends? Discuss!
Even though I haven't been doing so many recipes, i have been doing quite a bit of things found on pinterest. Im planning to do like pinterest DIY gifts for christmas, which will be really fun, because I'll get to spend Sunday's from here on out busy making things for my relatives!
I have a feeling that this weekend Im' going to try melted crayon art...

here is the pin
it says that you just take a blow dryer and crayon and go bananas on a canvas. I will try this and report back.
Or you can do something like this. I will see what i have and do what is most practical for my resources. {Spellcheck to the rescue!} Haha. sound so professional there... except for the first time i spellled practical i spelled it wrong... oops! 
Have a great weekend!
