Fail!
This week my man and I attempted to make homemade whole wheat bread… twice. Don’t let the picture below fool you. Both attempts were a complete fail! First attempt we didn’t let the yeast sit. Second attempt we substituted margarine for shortening and honey for molasses… didn’t think it would be such a big deal. Oh well, third times a charm?

Playing Catch-up!
I’m back! Haven’t posted a blog for over a week due to “birthday week” and of course Valentines Day. So in this post I’m including two weekly reviews… enjoy.
I’ve made lots of cookies in the past however the dough usually comes from my old friend Mr. Pillsbury. This time I thought I would put some extra time and effort into it and make cookies from scratch. Pretty easy and definitely tastier! All I did was slightly alter the Toll House recipe.
My version of cookie yummers:
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated [white] sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 3/4 Hershey’s Chipits Skor
• 3/4 cup chopped nuts
Combine ingredients. Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes.
For my 27th birthday I finally took my learners driving test and PASSED! It only took my 11 years to do it!

Cool Banana
Art Director, DJ Neff’s new campaign for Chiquita was inspired by what people did with the stickers after they ate the banana. The hope was to create characters that made you excited and inspired to put the sticker somewhere fun and exciting! Such a great idea. The website is cute too.
