Chex PB and Chocolate Blast - Chex Mix-Change

I wrote last month about being chosen to host a Chex Party Mix-Change.  One of the recipes from the Mix-Change was Chex PB and Chocolate Blast.  It was a big hit! 


YUM!

Along with this recipe there were recipes for; Chex Pumpkin Pie Crunch, Hot Buttered Yum Chex Mix and Chex Caramel-Chocolate Drizzles.  You can get all the recipes by clicking here Chex Party Mix-Change Recipes.

The Chex PB and Chocolate Blast took just minutes to make.  There are a couple things I did, or would do differently next time. 

I don't have a huge refrigerator so when it said to line 2 cookie sheets with waxed paper, I knew I wouldn't have room.  Instead, I only used one.  I simply put another piece of waxed paper on top of the first coated cereal, and then put the other coated cereal on top.  It turned out great and took up less room. 

Next time I think I will add the peanuts to the peanut butter coated cereal before it goes in the refrigerator to cool and I will add the M&Ms to the white chocolate coated cereal before it goes in the refrigerator.  If you look at my picture, you can see the that M&Ms and peanuts all kind of sink to the bottom.  I think if you combine them in then it will be more evenly distributed. 

Hope you enjoy the recipes!  With each of them only taking minutes, the only hard decision will be which to make first.

Zipzicles review and giveaway!!

A couple weeks ago I received a package of Zipzicles to try out and review. I must say, I was super excited. You can read about how Zipzicles was started here. This summer my children and I attended VBS at our church. Since our church is a 30 minute drive and VBS ran from 8:30-12:30, I knew that I would need to pack their lunches. I attempted to make my own Zipzicle type packaging but it did not turn out well at all. I didn't take pictures because no-one needs to witness how bad they were. So, a couple months ago I found Zipzicles and wanted to give them a try. It is such a simple idea and I cannot believe no-one thought of them sooner. One of the things I like most (besides being super convenient) is that the packages are BPA free and recyclable! I also like that I know exactly what my kids are eating because I make it myself. Okay, so here is what I did. I made smoothies and put them in the Zipzicle packages. I am a big fan of tropical smoothies. Here I have coconut milk...

Vintage Christmas Wonderland - Review

When I was contacted a few weeks ago and asked if I would review a newly released Christmas album, I couldn't type fast enough to respond and say YES! Christmas is, by far, my favorite time of year.  When I received the Cds, they were wrapped in beautiful burlap and ribbon and decorated with a sparkly snowflake. Along with the Cds, there was a personal handwritten note. It was so sweet and just made the entire experience of this review scream vintage. Vintage Christmas Wonderland by David Ian has a smooth jazzy sound that takes you back to the days when life was less complicated. When I was contacted to review the album, it was described to me as " It's reminiscent of the Charlie Brown Christmas album and meant to bring warmth to the season!".  I can tell you, that is a perfect description. While listening to Vintage Christmas Wonderland, I felt like putting up my Christmas tree just so I could plug in the lights and watch them glow. I felt like starting a ...
