Hi Jane,
I check your blog quite often and love it! I just wanted to pass on a little snickers idea for you. I am sure you know all about this seeing as your Mom works for M&M. But, if you make your favorite peanut butter cookies and roll a half of a mini snickers in the middle they are a very yummy treat. Just an idea!
hill family...I will track that link down for you! :)
I like how you use the term "good bread". My mom does also and my sister and I make fun of her....but in a good way! ;)
that IS funny that I do that...just in case I forget, I need to remind myself that we can only eat GOOD bread. funny. glad I'm not the only one! and you can make fun of me (in a good way) all you want...

Try this for your yummy salad!
Butter lettuce
Grapefruit supremes
Avocado
Pumpkin seeds
Cilantro dressing (Trader Joe's has one in the refrigerated section)
It's good! =)
butter lettuce is just what I bought at the store! and avocados...will have to give it a try! :)
You must use those candies to make these blondies (I guarantee they will be good!)
from the cake mix doctor book
Candy Bars:
1 pckg yellow cake mix
1/2 c packed light brown suger
8 tbsp (1 stick) butter melted
2 lg eggs
1 c. chopped candy bar pieces
Heat oven to 350.
Place everything but candy in mixing bowl and mix until combined. Fold in candy bar pieces until well distributed. Pour batter into ungreased 13x9 pan. Smooth out with spatula so it reaches all sides.
Cook until toothpick is clean, 40-45 mins.
These are very yummy! My favorite is milky way bars in it.
=)
I WILL have to try that...seriously, could there be a more perfect recipe for my candy "predicament" ?!?! :)
