Hey, friends!  I have another recipe to share with you.  It was the first try and it was really yum!
I did not think to take an up close picture of the dessert, so this picture is really so I can show off two of my favorite guys in my life!  But seriously, the dessert was a big hit - all gone, too.  No more.
Oreo Cheesecake
Ingredients:
2 pkg (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup milk
2 eggs
6 Oreo Chocolate Sandwich cookies, coarsely chopped (about 3/4 cup), divided
1 chocolate pie crust (6 oz)

Oreo Cheesecake directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  In a large bowl beat cream cheese until smooth.  Gradually mix in vanilla, sugar, milk, and whipping cream.  Mix until smooth.
2.  Add eggs one at a time, mix just until blended.  Stire in 1/2 cup of the cookies.
3.  Pour mixture in crust.  Sprinkle the remaining chopped cookies on top.
4.  Bake for 35-40 minutes or until center is almost set.  Cool.  Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.  Top with whipped cream if desired.

Sister's Birthday Gift

I just had to do Mark's idea - and he helped me - to make a gift for Nancy for her birthday.  I had seen this little poem about growing up with a sister and thought it was perfect.  So we went to several thrift stores looking for the perfect sized canvas picture and after only two stops - found it! This is the canvas with the letters I stuck on it and I began there in the bottom corner to paint it a dark brown.  The canvas is a golden with thin trees and some words in cursive in a light brown.   As you see, I was using a paint brush, but I changed to a small roller.  It worked much much better. Completely painted the top and the sides of the canvas a brown color.  Then I let it dry - probably about 30 minutes.  Then pealed off the letters! Here is the finished product: And it's true.  I did tell on her - it was for her own good. :)

Pretzels

This was a fun little snack I wanted to try.  But I will have to warn you - watch it the last 15 minutes really closely.  I had them in the oven, stirring every 10 minutes.  The recipe said to cook it 30 minutes, but I should have taken them out at 20.  The last 10 minutes turned them too dark.  It is probably my oven, so if you try this - keep your eyes on them.  Here is the recipe: 16 oz. pretzels - put in a roasting pan Mix: 1/2 cup oil, 1/2 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon Pour mixture over pretzels.  Place in 300 degree oven.  Bake for 30 minutes.  Stir every 10 minutes. Take out of oven and spread out on paper towels to cool.  Store in airtight container. Another little tip - I would double the cinnamon next time I make it.  But I like cinnamon!
