s'more brownie!

Just make regular brownies and bake them as directed except shorten the time by about 10 minutes. Right before you're ready to serve them, put flat marshmallows (they are in bags next to the regular ones at the grocery s...tore) on top and completely cover the brownies in the pan. Bake another 5-10 minutes until the marshmallows are toasted and puffy. Take them out of the oven and drizzle chocolate sauce and crushed graham crackers on top. Super easy but they look pretty and taste even better!

powerful homemade wall art!

a friend of mine made this with her daughters using lipstick. i want to do it but i think everyone in the family should be a part of it.  kind of like a family contract (rules).

potato and ham crockpot

A friend of mine made this and it sounds pretty good!!! 

potato and ham in the crockpot:



8 medium red potatoes


3 lbs. ham


½ cup(s) unpacked brown sugar


1 tsp dry mustard

1. Cut the potatoes in chunks and place at the bottom of the crockpot

2. Place ham on potatoes

3. Mix brown sugar / dry mustard and sprinkle on ham

4. Cook on Low for 10 hours. I would actually do it for 8 ½ - 9 hours, because I thought 10 hours was too long.
