Swedish Tea Cakes

Yesterday I talked about all the different Christmas candies that I used to make with my mom when she was still here.  Today, I have a cookie recipe that I am sure a lot of you have made, but it is one that we used to make all the time just for Christmas!  These fun little morsels are so pretty on a plate and I am sure that is why my mom made them all of the time; they just look festive!

November 2013 Visiting Teaching Handout

This month for your visiting teaching message you will need to pick your favorite conference talk to discuss with your sisters, so I decided just to do a general card that you can hand out with any talk that you choose.  With it being November, I went with a “thankful” theme.  We all have many blessings that we need to be thankful for, one of them being the fact that we have a general conference twice a year with a living prophet to lead our church!  I love conference weekend and the wonderful spirit that I feel every time I listen to our leaders.

So with that being said, I hope that you can show your gratitude to your sisters for all of your blessings.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sundae

This  is a great dessert to make because it looks like you went to a lot of work, when you really didn’t!   So if you want to impress your family, friends, co-workers or neighbors, just make this dessert! :)

This is just a basic Toll House Cookie recipe that you bake as pan cookies, so that is why they are so easy!  I used butter in these to give them that rich, buttery flavor!

Valentine Sugar Cookies

Hey everyone, I would love for you to visit my new facebook page and like and share it!

There is a FREE fun family subway art for you to print over there.

Last night I finally bit the bullet and made some of my sugar cookies.

 I resist doing this every year because they are 1) a little bit time consuming, 2) messy to make and 3)  I cannot resist eating them…at all!  (Which is not a good thing!)
