Fruity Pebbles Treats



It has been an exhausting day in our house today.  My daughter woke up late last night with the worst cold ever and ended up sleeping in our bed with us all night.  Well, I guess I should say she slept...the hubby and I, not so much.  That being said I was looking for something yummy and quick to make for the family today.  Luckily I had just the thing lined up, Fruity Pebble Treats.

They are super quick and easy and so very yummy!  My husband requested them a couple of weeks ago and seeing as they take 10 minutes max, they seemed just perfect for my blog post today.





Fruit Pebble Treats
12 servings

1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 package of regular sized marshmallows
5 cups fruity pebbles

In a deep pan melt the butter/margarine on low heat.  Add the marshmallows, stirring constantly so that it does not burn.  Pour in the fruity pebbles and stir until well mixed.  Pour the mixture out into a greased 9x13 baking dish.  





I chose to drizzle a bit of melted chocolate on top to kind of jazz them up.  Put a handful of chocolate chips in a ziploc baggie.  Pop it into the microwave on 50% power for 30-45 seconds, keeping a close eye so you don't end up with a huge mess.  Remove and cut a small hole into the corner of the baggie, then squeeze the melted chocolate out over top and pop in the fridge until cooled.

Homemade Cinnamon Rolls...from scratch!

Tuesdays are our lazy days around our house.  I don't work until the afternoon and my daughter doesn't have school, so it is kind of the day that we sleep in, have a yummy breakfast and get a few things done around the house.  This Tuesday, I decided to make it extra special and make homemade cinnamon rolls...from scratch!  I don't think there is any better breakfast than a delicious hot from the oven cinnamon roll that you made with your very own hands.  Plus, I had some leftover cream cheese frosting that tasted just like Cinnabon's frosting...so yeah, basically best breakfast EVER! lol Our ingredients... Add your milk, oil, and sugar to a saucepan.  Heat over medium heat until just below boiling. Sprinkle on the yeast and allow to sit for a minute. Stir in the 4 cups of flour.

S'mores with a Twist!

Now that it is finally summer and the weather is beautiful here in Southwest Washington, that means it is time for camping and cookouts to begin.  The most important food item at these events of course, being s'mores.  Who needs the hot dogs, burgers and steaks...I'll take s'mores please!  : D For our family camping trip I decided to mix it up a bit and feature some new candy bars besides the Hershey's Milk Chocolate bars.  I hit the candy aisle at the grocery store and looked for every flat-ish candy bar available.  I ended up with a Hershey's Symphony bar, a Hershey's Cookies n' Cream bar, a Mr. Goodbar (my family's personal fav) and a Reese's Peanut Butter bar.  Time for the fun to begin!   We all had a blast trying the different bars and although they were all delicious, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law liked the Mr. Goodbar best, where as I LOVED the Reese's Peanut Butter bar.  I ate way too many after white water rafting...but I figure...
