Smores.

Living in the city has been
an adjustment but it is going
well.  We do miss campfires
and smores.

So I decided to make
indoor smores.



Although there are a lot of recipes
I just made them
with what ingredients I had.

The bottom layer is
graham cracker crumbs,
butter and sugar.


Then I mixed up a batch
of box brownies
and spread it over the
graham cracker crust.
And baked it.



After they baked and
cooled 10 min.
I added the mini marshmellows
and broiled them till brown.



These bars were a mess
to cut and I think I
will make them in
muffin tins the next time
so I don't have to cut them.



They were yummy,
especially when they were
warm and gooey.
Indoor smores.
A little taste of home!



Have a great Monday!

Cake in Costa Rica

Excited?  Yes!

I was so excited when one of
the missionary families needed
a cake for their daughter's 5th
birthday.  I was loving "playing"
with cake again.



I only brought a small amount of
my cake decorating supplies along from the US
and so I worked with what I had
and.... I found a cake store within walking distance of
our house.  Yes, I was excited!



It was a challenge to find all the ingredients
but with serveal trips to several different stores
I found all I needed and this is what I came up
with. 


Have a great weekend!
