Christmas Season Happenings and a Recipe

We have had a sick kinda week in our house.   Pink eye, Ear Ache, Strep Throat... (you get the picture).  I thought I'd share a few photos of what we've been doing despite the yuckies.

Spencer making Holiday Pretzel Treats


To make Holiday Pretzel Treats:  Preheat oven to 170.  Line baking sheet with Parchment paper.  Place square waffle style pretzels on cookie sheet & top with Hershey's Kisses or Hershey's Hugs.  Bake for 6-8 minutes or until chocolate gets a little soft (white chocolate melts faster).  Let kids push M n M's into chocolate.  Place in freezer or refrigerator for about 10 minutes to harden chocolate.  YUM!
