I am always looking for quick little treats for FHE (or a party, ward gathering, or teacher appreciate week which is this week... FYI) that is EASY to make, and that maybe I even have tall the ingredients in the house, Yesterday I got a good one. I'm sure you all probably already have a recipe for something like this, but if not, here ya go (the picture is not the exact one I used):SMORE BARK:
Melt 1 9oz pkg of Baker's Semi Sweet Chocolate Melts in microwave for 2 minutes. Stir still melted. Spread 3/4 chocolate over wax paper on baking sheet. Sprinkle with mashed graham crackers, mini marshmellows and drizzle with remaining chocolate. Cool for about 1 hour in fridge. (You could mix this up with crushed Oreo or carmels and nuts, etc)
I am addicted to Emerald City Smoothies (so is Will). Too bad they are a little pricy. I hit this place often when I am done with the gym. The smoothies are SO GOOD, and about 375-400 calories. It's my lunch, and it's amazing that it really sticks in you till dinner. Love 'em!! Mountain Berry Blast is my pick!
This is what I'm listening a lot too right now; Liona Lewis. She's the girl that was on American Idol a few weeks back. Her whole CD is really great. She in the Carrie Underwood, Mariah Carey, Joss Stone genre'. She's got a great voice, but it's her actual songs that are written really well. I'm guessing this one is gonna be around for awhile. A few of her songs are on my blog right now.
This just made me laugh, because in desperation I handed Morgan a granola bar in the car the other day. When I went back to get her once we got to our destination, I instantly thought, "What was I thinking"? Her face isn't bad, but the granola bar is crumbled ALL over her and in her seat. Ever had a moment like that? Was I really THAT desperate? Uh, probably.
And this is just a shot across our street this morning. We live in a great neighborhood and often get deer 100 feet from our front door. Gotta love the Northwest!!
