Blogging

Hi Friends,

I am at a Crossroads right now with Blogging.

 

I do not know if there are others out there like me

or not.  I am NOT a techy person but can keep up

a little and that can be very dangerous! lol

 

With all the changes Blogger/Google is doing

 (many of which I do not understand)

and not having a techy expert to help me, I

feel like I am loosing ground.

 

So...as the past few months have shown,

I am blogging less and less.

Now, part of that is because I thankfully

have seen my wee little etsy shop business

pick up some.  For that I am grateful!

 

Blogging, for a time was a way to connect

with other like minded peeps.  It still is,

but so many now use it in ways I could

never use or keep up.

 

I guess what I am saying...

I will be here less and less.

Oh, I may do an occasional blog,

but I have seen less and less comments

and know others have become very busy as well.

 

Know that I appreciate those of you who

do stop by and comment...you are some of the

best out there!

 

Thanks and Love!

 

 

 



BESTEST Easiest Peanut Butter Bars ~ Ever!!!

Hey there Friends!

Do you have childhood memories of food?

These Peanut Butter Bars are one of those

for me.  As a kid, if I got *hot* lunch at school

it usually was because Peanut Butter Bars

were on the menu. 

My mom, gave me this recipe many years ago when

she was weeding out her recipe.

  It was given to her by a friend. 

When I read it, I remembered

those bars we used to get...and well as they say,

The Rest is History.

I have adapted this recipe to what I remember as a child

and got in the school lunch.  Now

when I take these to parties and potlucks they always

receive rave reviews and a copy of the recipe.

It is easy and I hope you will LOVE them too!

(Here is the well used original recipe, it is quite Yukky!)

PEANUTE BUTTER BARS

1 Yellow Cake Mix

1 Cup Peanut Butter (I use Creamy)

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar

2 Eggs

1/3 Cup Water

Options: Choc Chips/Nuts

(I do not add as my fam loves them plain)

Mix all of these ingredient together. 

Your mix will be quite thick as you see below.

Spread evenly in pan.

BAKE: 350 for 25 Minutes

Once the bars get out of the oven, I pour my glaze over

the mixture and then let it cool

Peanut Butter Glaze

1 Cup Powdered Sugar

2 Tbls Peanut Butter

1-2 TB Water

I like this to be slightly thin.  But you can make

this to how you would enjoy it.

These bars are VERY moist and gooey and

you will not be able to eat just one!

Here above is a picture as it just comes out of the oven.

And below you see the glaze that has been poured

over the *hot* bars.  As it cools it will set up

and be so yummy!

I  wanted to make sure that I would have the recipe

for years to come

So I am sharing this with all of you!

Enjoy

Monday Morning Musing ~ A few of my favorite things!

Good Monday Morning Friends!

Okay...please do not think I have flipped...lol

Yes, those are my hands and feet you see in the

pictures!

I am always a bit late to get on board with what is new,

and painting my nails is one of them.  As an

artist I quit many years ago painting my nails.

Due to my hands in water, glue and just plain wear

and tear, it never was worth the time I spent.

Mind you, this girly girl was sad...;-(!

Until a few months ago, I had never hear of Gel Shellac

on fingernails.  While in Jacksonville, my sister

talked me into trying Shellac.  OH MY GOSH!!!!

I am in LOVE!

My first manicure lasted me 3 weeks with

no problems at all!

To say I am SOLD OUT on this method

 of painting my sweet lil fingers, is an understatement!

So...on Friday I went to have them repainted!

This will be a purely wonderful splurge that

I will be doing regularly from now on!

If you haven't heard of...or was wondering what the

fuss is all about...if you are someone who

works with your hands but wants them to still look

pretty for an extended period of time, without

damaging your nail...this is the way to go!

Okay....can I just say BLING!!!

While shopping a few weeks back with my

daughter at DSW I found these darling

Gellie Jems in the clearance aisle!

They were a tad more than I'd usually pay

but the Bling had me at *hello*!

Do you not agree?

Also just tucking in a picture of another sweet

repurposed thrift box I found!

Loving how darling this turned out with all its

vintage laces, ribbons and roses!

Have a great week everyone!
