(+ husbands) as well as my son James. Saturday it rained, rained, & rained.....but today was beautiful! I did a little bit of planting in the back yard and hope to get more done tomorrow.
The Mother's day projects at school turned out so cute, I'm going to slip a picture in here so you can so how charismatic they are!!
Aren't they cute??? They have magnets on them so they can be hung on the fridge and hold precious papers.
We made a mother's day cookbook to go along with this gift, I will have to post a couple of the recipes for you in the next couple of days. They are priceless!
Today's recipe is a snack mix that is super crunchy and has to be partially good for you because it's made from Oatmeal squares cereal.
Praline Pecan Crunch
8 cups (one 16-ounce package) Quaker Squares, Brown Sugar or Cinnamon
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons 70% vegetable oil spread (in sticks, not tubs)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Heat oven to 250° F. Spray 13 x 9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Combine cereals and pecans in pan; set aside.
In 4-cup microwaveable bowl, combine corn syrup, brown sugar and vegetable oil spread. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute 30 seconds. Stir. Microwave 30 seconds to 1 minute 30 seconds or until boiling.
Stir vanilla and baking soda into mixture. Pour over cereal mixture; stir to coat evenly.
Bake 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes. Spread on baking sheet and cool completely; break into pieces. Store tightly covered.
