Time to neatly put up all the Christmas lights...

so the evil knome living in my storage can tangle them up for next year;)

Mint Chocolate Nip

Mayhaps I should've posted this one earlier since the holidays have passed:( Still a great drink to enjoy anytime of year if you ask me...

1/2 oz. peppermint schnapps
1 oz. Bailey's Irish Cream
1 oz. Godiva liquor
1.5 oz milk

mint sprigs or candy canes optional

Shake above liquid ingredients over ice to chill. Strain into glass.

Garnish with mint sprig, candy cane or both.

Can be enjoyed chilled or served warm. Simply heat up in pan on low to

warm and top with marshmallows if desired.

A word from the wise...

"Be who you are,and say what you feel,because those who mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind" Dr. Suess

This quote though written for children is something that we as adults need to remember as well. I feel that too many of us spend so much time worrying what other people think of us when really for the most part it doesn't matter:)

 

 

Gingerbread Rice Crispies

So have you guys seen this??? Gingerbread marshmallows! I was super psyched to try them out as a replacement for regular marshmallows in my rice crispy treats. They are delicious.

1 box rice crispies (Crispy rice or whatever,we always get the cheapest)
1 bag gingerbread marshmallows
1/2 bag regular marshmallows
4 tbsp butter or margarine (I use country crock light)

Mix butter and marshmallows until melted. Remove from heat, mix in cereal. Put in large pan. I use a glass pan and spread it evenly. It is easiest to use wax paper over top after spreading to press down and compact and really get it even. Enjoy!

Dear Santa...

I have been very good this year and I want a Nintendo DS. Sissy has been bad. I don't think you should bring her anything. She is definitely on the naughty list. If she is perfect from now until Christmas you can bring her a baby doll. But...I wouldn't count on it.

The above is verbatim what my son said to the Santa at Daddy's work this year. I just hope that once his sister can comprehend the sabotage that has taken place the payback will be undeniable.

Apologizing Again:(

I'm the worst blogposter or should I say non-blogposter ever. I have been trying to get back into the swing of things since the birth of my third child, who is handsome as ever. I just realized that I have completely neglected this site (some of you are probably excited about this because you are not missing those annoying e-mail alerts!) Well today is my eldest son's fifth birthday believe it or not so...off I go. I will be posting some new creative holiday crafts and recipes later in the week. Hope everyone is having a happy day!
