I don't think I've had rice krispie treats in like almost a year. Sometimes you just crave simple things like that. At least I do. I know Brandon likes these and I also stumbled into some confetti sprinkles today at the commissary. I can't say I'm familiar with the commissary here in Milton yet. They have a unique way to stocking things and I find things were I don't think they would ever be. It's quite the challenge just to get the items on my grocery list - but I'm getting there. I better, I go there enough. lol. It's scary that I can spend a good hour and a half at the grocery store when I don't have very many "neccessities" to get. It's time I take for myself I suppose. Most people might think I am nuts but I feel myself and worry-free at the store. Oh, instead of butter I used earth balance so this is totally IBS safe. ;-)I think I have a handle of how my camera works now. I can't believe there are so many options on a little camera.
Bobby Flay is going to be in Mobile, Al this Saturday. SO sad I'm not going. The tickets I believe are like $75. I've decided that I like Bobby Flay alot. When I first started watching his show, he scared me a little. He seemed really strict and almost unapproachable. That is until he started filming his show Bobby Flays Throwdown. I LOVE that show, and it shows such a fun side of him, a more approachable, friendly, and less intimidating person.
I'd like to meet him. Him, and Alton Brown! I learn so much from Alton. Gotta love him.
Well tomorrow, I am hoping to attempt making a Pumpkin Challah, a recipe from Rosa's Yummy Yums. Wish me like, it looks delicious, plus I gotta take advantage of this time of the year. It gives me more than an excuse to make anything and everything pumpkin. SWEET!
I know what you mean about spending a lot of the time in the grocery store. I ALWAYS spend 30 minutes or more in there.
ReplyDeleteI like Bobby Flay, too. Especially Throwdown. I wish you could go and take pictures.
I made krispie treats recently and it's amazing how that simple treat can taste so good. I am the same as you regarding Bobby Flay. Until I started watching the Throwdown I kind of thought he was a bit "too big for his britches". That shows a better side of him. Who would ever think we would pay money to see a food star the same as a rock star -- LOL.
ReplyDeleteI like Bobb Flay's food. Can't wait for your report :)
ReplyDeleteMmmmhhh, that looks indecently yummy!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the Pumpkin Challah! I hope that you'll like it... I'm looking forwards to reading your thoughts regarding that wonderful brioche.
Cheers,
Rosa
I just had a conversation this week about how homemade rice krispie treats far outweigh the store-bough version, which tastes of vanillin.
ReplyDeleteI like your touch with the sprinkles, it makes it look cheery!
Emilie - yeah really. I wish I could go too, but I think I would be star struck and won't be able to ask him any questions. Brandon hates going to the store with me because I take forever. lol
ReplyDeleteAnj - Thanks for stopping by.The rice krispies have been sitting there wanting me to eat them. hehehe. Yes, throwdown really does put his best foot forward.
Cynthia - I wish I could give you a report but I didn't go.
Rosa - The pumpkin challah turned out wonderfully! I will post soon. :-D
Christina - Thanks! It makes it look a little festive huh? lol. I haven't had the store brought ones in a long time. I was tempted at first to just buy them, but then I was like....are you crazy? It'll take 2 seconds to make. lol.
Nice design update, I really like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks christina! Do you think it's easy enough to read?
ReplyDeleteVery fun and festive.
ReplyDeleteI love the new layout and colours you chose! The picture of the rice krispies goes well with it! :))
ReplyDeleteYes, it's easy to read, though the color you chose for your blog title (is that called the header? I need to work on my html/css lingo...) is a bit difficult to read. I mean, I can see it but it does something strange to my eyes when I first look at it until I focus. I think it just doesn't stand out as much as it did to me.
ReplyDeleteRice krispies treat, what a classic. Love the festive touch.
ReplyDeletePeabody - Thank you! I love this time of the year. Makes me SO happy!
ReplyDeleteMom - Thank you mom. Glad you like it!
Christina - I tried to change the font and I put shadow behind the font so hopefully it is easier to read. I appreciate your input cause I was thinking the same thing. By the way, I don't have a clue about the lingo either. lol.
Cheryl - Thanks cheryl. Gotta make the best of this season!
