S'mores!!!

     







Its summer and s'mores are perfect summer food! However not every person has the space or time to build a fire in their backyard to make this amazing treat... I HAVE A SOLUTION! I'm going to tell you how to make s'mores in the oven :) this is the perfect snack after school, right before you throw the kids in the car for ball games, birthday parties, or even just good ole family time.

What you will need:
Hershy's chocolate bars
Graham Crackers
and marshmallows

  1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.

 

2. Prepare your cookie sheet. Place parchment paper onto your cookie sheet so you won't  have to clean up as much of a mess later.

3. Break the crackers in half so they are squares. Place them onto the pan like so:

4. Put a marshmallow onto each square facing up like so:


5. Place pan in oven for 5 minutes.
6. When they come out of the oven the marshmallows should be puffy. Using a butter knife push the marshmallow down. Put 3chocolate squares on each marshmallow.

7. Place the top cracker onto each s'more. Place back in oven with the oven door slightly opened. Be sure to watch your s'mores. This is just to melt the chocolate. 
Take the pan out and you can eat your s'mores! Enjoy!

Summer Fun Frame tutorial







So a week or two ago after my siblings and I got out of school I made a list of things we are going to do this summer and of course I had to pretty it up! It is mainly to keep Carsyn (6 years old) from sitting and watching TV all day, but I have been having some fun with it too! 


I measured the frame, cut out some pretty scrapbooking summer looking paper, wrote a whole long list of simple things to do, added some stickers, and put it in the frame! The glass makes the marks erasable like a white board.


We have already accomplished a few of the tasks on the list! I hope you all have a great summer!
