8 weeks!

8 weeks of classes down!  8 weeks to go! Time is going by so fast, and slow at the same time. Mostly fast. Headed to Lirio tomorrow around 12:30…. Can’t wait to see everyone again! I missed not being there last weekend. I was supposed to go out to coffee tonight with some new friends, but one of the girls got stuck in traffic and we cancelled. Sooooo I was stuck in the house again. Made myself a bowl of oatmeal, watched CSI, and chatted on FB. My oatmeal wasn’t the same…. I didn’t have any peanut butter =’( I tried to make my own but it wasn’t the same. Fail.

I have a little problem.

I like food an awful lot.

And have an addiction to food blogs.

And fashion blogs, but that’s another topic.

(Yeah, as I sit here in favorite tee shirt and red shorty-shorts, college student style.)

I miss cooking soooo much.

I thought I would share some of the things that had me drooling on my keyboard tonight….Click the photos to go to the original site+recipe. PS you can also make them and send a lil’ package to your favorite Livvy in Chihuahua!

{purple-fleshed sweet potatoes}

{chocolate-peanut butter cupcakes… yes that is a mountain of peanut butter filling on top, and yes I could eat 3 of these right now}

{double chocolate macaroons. macaroons have become quite the popular subject in food blogs lately and i am dying to try them!}

{ratatouille! yes! the movie!}

 

{scotch eggs}

{jam filled banana cupcakes with PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING!}

{peach bellini cupcakes: moist peachy cupcakes with champagne}

 

{and as always…..}

Okay. I need to stop stalking food blogs and sleep. And turn the cheesy TV show that has been playing off.

Until Sunday!

Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats

I love these. They are super simple, and you can make as many variations as you want. All you need is Rice Kripsies, peanut butter and honey. BANG. Done. After you have that mixed together you can throw in whatever you like- Chocolate Chips, coconut, m&m’s….

The Sort of Recipe

3c. Rice Crispies
1c +/- Natural Peanut Butter
1/4c +/- Honey

Mix together and press into a pan lined with tin foil. Freeze until hard then cut into bars. Store in freezer.

They will taste a bit stale after a week or so.
