SATURDAY'S AND PINTEREST


I really love Saturday's...they are a kind of do nothing sort of day...well other than the normal catch up on housework, but once that's done...its a laid back kind of day! Just sitting here listening to some awesome Christian music, the sound of the lawn mower outside, sipping on lemonade and deciding what to type on my blog today! I have joined this website called http://pinterest.com/
and I am so addicted to it! It's sort of like saving links on your favorites or bookmarks, but this is so simple and so much easier and visual! If you find something you like on a web page, you simply click PIN IT and it saves it all nice and neat in folders you create to suit your needs. Then when you want to re-visit that site, you simply go to your Pinterest and find that photo, click on it and voila...you are redirected to that web page! You can also browse other peoples Pinterest pages and get some amazing ideas. Try it, I promise you will be hooked really quick! If you do, find me http://pinterest.com/pedsnurse/ and check out some of my pins!

Now a quickie recipe that would make another great after school snack for the kiddies!
It's called

Critter Crunch....

  • 1-1/2 cups honey bear-shaped crackers

Directions

  • In a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon until butter is melted; stir until blended. In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Add butter mixture and toss to coat.
