Often, on road trips with my grandchildren, we stop at a Maverick for gas and to pick up some snacks. One of the favorite snacks for some of us are these cinnamon gummy bears that are coated in chocolate! Maverick is the least expensive place that we have found them, if you can find them at all, but they still cost a bit more than I normally like to pay for a snack. They are just so good though!
One day, I was thinking about chocolate cinnamon bears, randomly, because that is how my mind works, and I thought to myself, "Why not dip your own cinnamon bears?" Then, I mentioned it to my granddaughter who was with me and of course she was on board! So, the search began to first find the cinnamon gummy bears to dip! They do have them online, but we didn't want to wait overnight to have them shipped! (First world problem!) Besides, they were much less expensive at Winco, where we found them by the bin full for under $3 per pound!

Whenever my almost 13 year old granddaughter comes to see me, she loves to share new trending craft ideas with me. This past weekend was no exception. I hadn't heard of these eye color bracelets that she found on social media, but they are such a fun idea.

It is so great having friends with fruit trees! When there is a bumper crop year and they are up to their ears in so much fruit that they don't want to go to waste, they think of me and I appreciate it so much!
I was over at Anita's house the other day and everywhere I turned, she had apricots in buckets, boxes and baskets. I took some home and canned some. Another friend also gave me some small peaches from her tree, so between the leftover apricots and the leftover peaches, I decided to make a batch of Apricot Peach Butter in the Crockpot. It was so easy and the results were fantastic! This post contains affiliate links. I will be compensated for purchases made through those links at no additional cost to you.

Making ice cream has never been so easy and delicious!
We are having a party here tonight, so I have been working on making enough ice cream to go around, and because Maddy is lactose intolerant, and I know many other people are as well, I decided to experiment with a non-dairy variety of ice cream. You won't believe how easy and delicious this ice cream was to make! Also, it is much less expensive than ice cream made with heavy cream, so bonus! |
