Who doesn’t love peanut clusters with the wonderful, smooth chocolate and the salty, nutty crunch of the peanuts?
(If you missed it, here is the link to watch it!)
So get ready to raid the kids candy bags!
This has been a busy week here at the ranch. Even though we are empty nesters it does not mean that we slow down very much!
My husband and I took a quick little trip to St. George, (Southern Utah) the first few days of the week. We went to two of the Tuacahn Theater Shows, “Aladdin” and “Hairspray”. They were both so good and the weather was pretty good although the first night we were there the wind came up and it got downright cold! We figured if we were going to see these shows that we had better go now, because they are going to end this week! We really enjoy going to the different shows every year! Thriller starts next week and I would love to see that one too, but I doubt that we will make it back down there to see that one! Maybe next year!
The other day I had one of my best little helpers with me and we decided that we would like to make something good to eat!
My little helper was great at measuring and pouring the ingredients into the bowl. I love to have a little helper in the kitchen, don’t you?
We decided that these Halloween Muddy Buddies would hit the spot, what do you think? Do you want to make some too?
Do you want to know why this is the best ever Halloween Countdown?
So does anyone what to make a darling Halloween countdown for all of your kiddos? Continue reading
I have some exciting news to share with you today! I am going to be showing how to make these candy jars on Good Things Utah
on Monday, Oct. 8th at 10 am. I would love for you to join me and watch the tutorial of how to put these cute little babies together!
But for all my readers, here is the tutorial for you to make an “Eye” Candy Jar like these that we made at our craft retreat. They are so easy to make and yet are so darling! The thing that I love about these jars is that you can eat the candy after the holiday is done and then fill it up again for the next holiday! Apparently they make “Peeps” for most every holiday! Something that I didn’t know because I don’t like to eat them.
There is a story behind this title…
a while back one of my DIL’s brought dessert for dinner on a Sunday get together and when they arrived at our house, she told her oldest son (age 9) to tell me what they had brought for dessert. He declared: “Better than Hunting Cake!” (Remember, that this is our little hunter!) Well, we all got a good laugh out of that and we all knew what the real name of the cake was, but he thought that was the real name. He has a smart mom to avoid that topic! So anyway here is a version of Chex Mix that is called Better Than Sex Hunting Chex Mix that is to die for. You have to be careful because this one is soooo addicting! It is a combination of chocolatey, sweet, salty, peanut butter, and marshmellowy bliss!

My sister brought this over to me a few days ago and I thought that it was so cute that I wanted to pass it on to you! Many of us are always looking for a little gift to say thank you or “I am thinking about you” and this gift is just perfect! This would also work for a teacher appreciation gift for any teacher!
This month the message is titled “Daughters in My Kingdom” and it has a great message about how we are daughters of our Father in Heaven. He knows us, loves us, and has a plan for us.
How wonderful the world would be if everyone knew just this one eternal principle! So my handout this month is titled: “Lucky Me – I know:”
