Ritz Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies

These are always a hit because they are so good. Who can say no to peanut butter and chocolate?!

Ingredients:

1 (24 oz) Chocolate Almond Bark
2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
peanut butter
powdered sugar (optional)

Melt the almond bark in a double boiler over low heat, stirring occasionally.

In the mean time put peanut butter on a Ritz cracker then put another Ritz on top, sandwich style.
Dip the sandwiched peanut butter Ritz in the almond bark. Place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Allow the chocolate covered crackers to set. I ususally let them set for abour 30 minutes then I put them in an air tight container.

Note: Use the powdered sugar to stir into the peanut butter if it is too thin or runny to stay on the crackers. Alot of the natural peanut butters are a very thin consistancy.

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. :)

Woo Hoo!

So excited that Christmas is coming! I love the atmosphere of all the love and giving. I'm in the painting mode for a Christmas craft sale I'm a part of with my new friends. (We have moved to Georgia this past summer.) Here is just the beginning.....for some reason I am all about the Snowfriends. I've made small ones and large porch sitters. The small signs and Snowfriends will look cute on your three tiered tray or on a shelf.
