The best candy bar cookies deserve so much better.

My husband, daughter and I worked all night and morning, with 2 shopping excursions included to make the most amazing cookies ever. We loved chopping the candy bars up into little pieces while we all sneaked some just to make the wait easier. Our little punki wylla cant even see over the kitchen counter and still she knew there was something nummy up there. So there were her little hands feeling for any stray goodies on the couple inches of counter she could get to. We took care to taste the first batch just to make sure they were worthy for the homecoming of our cousin.
     The next day we were right on time, everyone carrying everything out to the car. We all hurried in and started the treck out of town when WOOOOSH went the cookies up the front of the car. THE COOKIES my daughter and I yelled in unison.  Only the cookies didnt laugh like we did.

My own garden produce chicken crock pot recipie.

I feel I am so happy when I pull and pick my food from the garden that my family and I and the whole earth worked on all summer. There is that moment when I am fully who I am and it's easy to be a mom. I know that this dinner will be perfect before I start. There is no question in my mind that there will be smiles all around the table as I am washing all the earth off.

I keep picking and washing and slicing till the crock pot is full. I add,


3 cloves of skinned garlic cloves
4 chicken thighs skinned
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
speared sweet potatoes
1/2 an onion sliced up
carrots speared
small red potatoes diced into quarters
 I wait to put some greens in later like broccoli and spinach
I would have loved to add some spice, my 8 year old would have protested. 

The blog was such a good idea.

I have to start posting all the fun I have with my kids. I have a seven year old girl and a one year old girl. There is nonstop creative fun in my house and I don't feel I have shared it enough.  So lets jump!
Today I made my header for my blog. I started with Powerpoint.
Step 1. Go to FILE-PAGE SETUP and change the width to 27 and the height to 3.5.
Step 2.Go to view and click on FORMATTING PALETTE it will check it.
Step 3. Drag images and stretch them or crop them. I did mine so fast i should probably spend more time on it but babies only sleep for so long, so!
Step 4. Save as JPEG and your golden.

This is going to be great just wait and see.
