Facebook recipe: easy Peanut butter fudge

I tested another facebook recipe today! Here's the post:

EASY PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE

2 sticks butter
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 lb. powdered sugar

Melt the butter and peanut butter (you may use microwave). Stir in vanilla. Beat in powdered sugar. Quickly spread into a buttered 8x8-inch square buttered dish. Chill to set. Cut into 64 squares.
 
I happened to have all the ingredients on hand and I had some time to kill before Under the Dome started....so I figured why not! So glad I did! This was not only the easiest fudge I've ever made--it's freaking delicious! This one def. goes in my "approved" file!

Lunchable jr.

Last month I got selected to sample and share new lunchable jr. snacks! They arrived today--my kids were so excited!! They made a great treat for before Topher went into preschool at noon. We were sent ants on a log (peanut butter, raisins, gramcracker sticks), and very beary crunch (teddy grahams, cheese crackers, and dried strawberries). The kids had fun eating them (Topher lined up his bears while Adam dipped the sticks in peanut butter and put the raisins on top). For a once in a while snack (esp. if we are in a hurry or going on a trip!) lunchable jr. is a perfect choice! It is yummy and fun and my boys (ages 3 & 4) absolutely loved them! I took some photos to enjoy--scroll down and check them out. You can see how much fun they had eating. :)

"okay boys...want a lunchable snack??"

wow, cool!!
