Awesome-Tasting Food!! // chocolate malt crispy bars

Do these look good or what? Only takes 25 minutes to mix up and then you can eat 'em. I actually haven't made this recipe before, but they sound awesome.

 

Chocolate Malt Crispy Bars

4 cups malted milk balls, divided

1 package (10 ounces) large marshmallows

3 tablespoons butter

5 cups crisp rice cereal

1 cup malted milk powder, divided

2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips

Chop 1 cup malted milk balls; set aside. In a Dutch oven, combine marshmallows and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Remove from the heat; stir in the cereal, 3/4 cup malt powder and chopped candy. Press into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. pan.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Stir in remaining malt powder. Spread over cereal bars. Top with remaining malted milk balls. Let stand until set. Cut into squares. Yield: 2 dozen

Awesome-Tasting Food!! // fruit slush

We used to make this a lot for Sunday breakfast. It is really good and kinda tart and kinda sweet. Sometimes we also add strawberries.

Fruit Slush

4 cans Chuck Pineapple
5 to 8 bananas
1 can (29oz) Peaches, cut into thirds
1 can (15oz) Mandarin Oranges
1/4 can Lemonade, add 1 1/2 cup water
1/3 can Orange juice, add 2 cups water
1/4 cup sugar

Put pineapple in a bowl with the juice. Drain oranges and peaches; add to pineapple. Mix all ingredients together. Put into containers and freeze until solid.

Eat frozen or you can set it out an hour before eating.

 

Makes: a lot

packing?

I've been packing today, because I going to North Carolina tomorrow at noon...hopefully.   

At this moment I am feeling kinda like this...

but right now it looks worse than this...

My stuff is all over my bed, but soon it should be in my duffel bag. Obviously it's not going to get there that soon because I'm sitting here telling you about it. hmm... 

So, I'm going to N.C. to a conference and to see my brother!!!! I can't wait to see him again and go to the conference.  After that we're headed for Pennsylvania to see my niece!!!!! and my sister...and my brother-in-law.  Somewhere in between those two we will either see the ocean and/or Washington D.C. and battlefields, and whatever else we spot.  

If it were up to you would you either see Washington D.C. or the ocean??

I would tell you more but I think you know what I should be doing. :) Hopefully I will keep this thing updated while I am gone.  You all have a awesome Monday evening.

Oh, and if you want to see more about this conference I'm going too check it out here.

poll for you...

I got a poll for you to do. It's to your right, on the side bar.

Since I love the change of the seasons, I thought it would be fun to see what other people think of it. This week the weather finally changed in Kansas. Before that we were painting our house and it was still hot. AND IT WAS OCTOBER!! Something was strange, because it is NEVER hot in Kansas during October. Monday morning my sister, Addy, and I went outside to finish up the painting. We both came back in for another jacket with a hood. Five minutes later we were back in again looking for gloves. Times change...

Although I like fall, I don't think I'm ready for winter. Winter comes way to soon for me. Oh well. 

 Someday, I'm going to get a moose in scenery like this.

Fall is a time to drink more coffee than normal. 

So, don't forget to vote on my poll. I would love it if you would tell me why you picked a certain answer. Or maybe you have something else you like about fall.
