Tasty Treats

We're learning to fend for ourselves down here, so this week we had to call home to get the recipe for Jerry's peanut clusters and Jane's green bean casserole. Both have been a hit with our friends here at Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, etc. Needless to say, we will be paying closer attention to how our parents prepare meals while we're back in Iowa. Thankfully, we didn't have to attempt the turkey over Thanksgiving this year (our friends did instead). Maybe next year!

We made these last year too but couldn't resist. We both have a weakness for peanut butter...
On a different note, not much in life has made me scream like a little girl. That is, of course, until we moved to Alabama. This darn creature tried to "attack" me 3 times. The third time was the worst -- it did it's fast creepy crawly thing ON MY FOOT. The pretzel is for size comparison.
NOT funny in the slightest bit. I guess that's what I get for bragging about the warm weather. It was warm enough to bring the bugs back out...
