I do eat - but I also walk and hike. On average 3 miles a day and so does my dog Kirby…during the fall and winter his paws get a little dry - I discovered this stuff and am over the moon. It’s cheap (look for it on Amazon) and he loves it - its all natrual and good for his paws…which reminds me - I think he needs to go out.

So much fun - you’ll want to keep making them. This is actually an affordable toy kitchen gadget - You put the pancake mix in - and on the other end is a squeeze nozzle - you can squeeze the container and make shapes on a griddle. I don’t even like pancakes - but I made 20.

I’ll be seriously honest here. I’m not sure if it’s the nostalgic packaging that got me - or the need for marshmallow - because I’ll be honest - I was never really a rice krisby kind of gal. I use to make them for my cousin Spaghetti (yes that is her birth name…honestly, her parents are Irish) and on occasion I’d substitute Rice Krisby cereal with a different cereal like granola and add chocolate chips, etc. and make granola bars. This is another easy office pot luck to-do. This year I found pecan (you guessed it!) and pumpkin granola cereal for a seasonal festive treat. When you melt the marshmallow on the stove, add things like vanilia, peanut butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, what have you (and of course butter as instructed) add desired cereal - you know the routine. Reeses Pieces Cereal is really good too.

For these I mixed pumpkin jam (shocked arent’ you? bet you didnt’ see that coming, huh!), peanut butter and candied pecans…I hear Nutella works too. As you can see above - spread it out on the pastry - then roll as the instructions suggest on the side of the can roll thingy - bake as instructed (OH don’t forget to preheat your oven) and then wha’la:

Somebody actually had the nerve to walk by and ask me what I was playing at when i was making these - that same somebody ate THREE OF THEM.

These are nice just to have if you have guests coming over. I bought the small can (4 croissants) for under a dollar - Imagine that! I had the other ingredients laying around. But imagine - something sweet like that for under $5 bucks!

Here we have William Sonoma’s Pumpkin Parmesan Sauce (so good I guarantee you’ll get every last drop out of the jar):

Pasta - Raviolis. Whole Foods, Squash, Pumpkin & Caramelized Onion stuffed Raviolis.

I used turkey meat feel free to use beef, veal or what have you….standard routine - saute onions in frying pan - add the meat - add some sauce - stir and break up the meat as it cooks….

Cook - mix together in one big bowl…Amazing - AMAZING - (can I say amazing again?) taste. The uber comfort food for this time of the year. Depending on how many mouths you have to feed this can go for two days - sometimes three. It’s very fulling - so a little goes a very long way.
