S'mores Golden Graham Treats..YUM!!

Warning, if you make these, they can get VERY addicting, so be extra cautious!!!  On Friday, not only did I make a Walnut and Grape Salad and Mac n' Cheese, but I also made S'mores Golden Graham Bar:)  These are soo easy to make, I just nuked them and then they were good to go.

Yum, Yum!!!!
In order to make these addicting bars, you will need:
1/4 c of butter
1 10 oz bag of regular marshmallows
1 box of Golden Graham Cereal
2 c of Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Ingredients

1.  In a large bowl, put the butter in it and melt in the microwave.

2.  Set the microwave for 45 seconds, then add your marashmallows to the bowl with the butter.  Start the microwave for 45 seconds then take it out and stir it.  Repeat about 3 - 4 times.  Stir the marashmallows and the butter together.



3.  Take out of the microwave add your Golden Grahams and mix until they are completely covered.  Then add in your chocolate chips and stir them in well.
Add Grahams

4.  Grab a 9 x 13 pan and grease it either with spray or butter.  Put the ingredients in the pan and spread out.  These will be pretty thick, but that's how their suppose to be.  That means more deliciousness to taste:)


Yummers:)

I think these may be my new favorite dessert:)   I hope you will enjoy this recipe!!!

Thanks for stopping by:)

Until next time!!!!!

Egg-cellent Art

Hey All!  I'm pretty excited to share with you what project I was working on this past weekend!  I was having Hobby Lobby with drawls, so I thought I would stop by and see what I could find.  As always, I didn't come out empty handed!  I bought quite a variety of things and didn't end up spending too much money.  I'm proud of myself for that because usually Hobby Lobby = bad news for my pocket book...yikes!!!!

Anyways, I made some good purchases,  my favorite purchase was these Easter eggs.  You might say, but why, they are soo plain!  I beg to differ because you can do many things with them:)  One of those things that you could use the eggs for is this wall art!

Say Cheese!!!

It's Sunday morning, here in Iowa, and the sun is shining without a cloud in the sky:)  I have all sorts of things planned to finish for today like: take our doggie for walk, clean the house, make dinner, and go into town to get some errands done!  Do you all have a long list of things to wrap up before the weekend comes to an end?

Yesterday, I shared with you my Walnut and Grape Salad and today I wanted to share with you my Mac n' Cheese recipe.  I thought the salad and the Mac n' Cheese went very well together and I think that I will be whipping it together again because it was such a hit with the hubby and my guests:)

Yummy!!!

Walnut and Grape Salad:)

Hey All:)  I have been pretty busy this weekend and it has been filled with lots of time spent with family and friends!  Last night, my lil sis came over along with a friend and I made some delicious supper!  Then we went to see The Hunger Games and I was super excited to go see it:)  We watched the movie in a smaller town, so it wasn't completely sold out, which was nice because then we weren't sitting on top of each other.

I knew the movie wasn't going to be as good as the book and I was right.  I do have to say though, it was good and the actors did a pretty good job.  In my opinion, better than Twilight actors.  I love the movie/series Twilight, don't get me wrong, but the acting just wasn't the best:(  The costumes in The Hunger Games were definitely out there along with their hair and accessories!

Before we went to the movie, like I said before, I made supper, and one of the dishes I made was a Walnut and Grape Salad!  It did turn out pretty tasty.  I found the recipe off of My Recipes, but I did change it just a teenie bit.



Ingredients:
2 cups of walnut halves
1/3 cup of Light Olive Oil
2 tablespoon sugar
1 tsp of salt
1/4 c White Wine Vigenar
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp of ground pepper
1 lb of lettuce
1 1/2 c of halved red seedless grapes
1 c finely slivered red onion
2 tablespoons of tarragon

Ingredients

A Mod Podge Day:)

Whoop!  Whoop!!  It's Thursday and it only means two things: 1. My fav shows are on tonight and 2. It's almost FRIDAY:)  I'm digging that it's almost Friday because it's the weekend and it means let The Hunger Games begin!!!  So completely excited for it:):)

I have been trying to find some lovely decorations or at least inspiration for crafts that we can display in our basement.  I thought it would be a neat idea to include our last intail "J" in our decor.  I wanted to personalize it to our color scheme that we'll have in the basement.  So, I ran over to Hobby Lobby, and bought a cardboard "J", and some scrapbook paper to cover it with.  This is what I came up with!

Teal, Gray, and Purple:)

Coral and Brown

Hey lovely ladies! I wanted to share with you another outfit that I put together.
Coral + brown + gold = Smiles all around! If only I had the money to buy this outfit...  Maybe I could find something similar to this purse.  A girl can dream can't she? Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your night:)

What I'm Loving Today!!!!

What a wonderful Wednesday it's been!  I had so much fun last Wednesday taking part in What I'm Loving Wednesday at Little Miss Daisy that I thought I would try it again:)  This has been one of my favorite posts last week, so here we go again!!!

What I'm loving today is being able to go for a walk with the hubby and Lucy in March on a 70ish degree day!!!

Lucy!
I talked to one of my friends in Phoenix and she said it has been warmer here in Iowa than where she's at!  Now that's just crazy!

I'm loving Mod Podge and that you can pretty much craft just about anything using this amazing stuff!
The best darn stuff!
