Mix peanut butter, honey & milk together to form tick mixture. Roll into small balls (about the size of a walnut). Then roll in cornflakes, nuts, or powdered sugar. Place on wax paper & refrigerate.

I recommend making these at least a day ahead for parties.

1 c sugar
2 Tbls cornstarch
1/4 tsp salt
2 c milk
2 eggs
2 Tbls butter or margarine
1 tsp vanilla
2 1-oz squares of baker’s chocolate

In saucepan using a hand beater, blend together sugar, cornstarch, & salt. Add milk & eggs. Stir constantly & cook on medium heat until thick & bubbly. Cook & stir 2 minutes more & then remove from heat. Add butter & vanilla. (Stop at this point if you want vanilla pudding) Microwave chocolate for 1 minute on low (to prevent it from burning). Add to mixture & blend 1 minute.

For pie – add to prebaked pie crust. Can top with whipped cream or meringue.

1 pkg. Dry yeast
2 c warm water
4 c self-rising flour
1/2 c sugar
1 egg
1/2 c vegetable oil

Dissolve package of dry yeast in 2 cups of warm water (not hot!). Mix flour, sugar, egg, & oil and then add dissolved yeast. Allow to rise. Spoon in greased muffin pan.

Bake at 450F for 20 minutes.

Yup!  It’s true.  No date set, but Ed and I will be moving back to Houston this January.

UPDATE:

The move is tentatively set for January 2nd. Ed will be visiting Houston the weekend of the 12th and will hopefully find us an apartment at that time. I’m still planning on being in Houston with the Olives from the 20-27th.

Now, if I can just figure out a way to get my house to miraculously sort & pack itself…..

1 green bell pepper (diced)
1/2 onion (diced)
3-4 pork chops (meat cut away from bone and chopped)
2 cans of black beans

For the seasoning you’ll need to go into the Mexican Isle and look for the Goya products. You’ll need Goya Adobo All Purpose Seasoning and Sazon Goya Con Culantro y Achiote (it’s in a little orange’ish box)

Throw all the ingrediants into a saucepan together. Put ONE little pouch of the Sazon seasoning in with the ingredients. The Adobo seasoning (I just eyeball it) and maybe a little crushed red pepper to give it some zing. Let it simmer for about an hour and serve in tortilla’s w/ cheese.

While it’s simmering make sure that you keep the liquid at a comfortable level.. if that means you have to add some water that’s fine

topping:
1/4 cup melted butter
2 cups crushed plain potato chips

Mix ingredients and put in 9×13 casserole dish (buttered) put crushed potato chips on top and drizzle butter over top.

Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour uncovered

The awesome thing about this is you can make it the night before put it in the fridge then add the topping right before you put it in the oven.

You can simmer it on the stovetop or crockpot. I mix it all together in my slow cooker and let it just simmer for about 4-5 hours. The upside with the slow cooker is it STAYS warm without the hassle of microwaving it later if you go the stovetop method. (think how cold you are after you finish trick or treating!)

In ungreased 9×13 oblong pan, dump in pineapple, then cherry pie filling. Spread cake mix evenly over the top. Sprinkle with pecans. Melt butter & pour over top evenly. Bake at 375 F for 45 minutes.

4 eggs
1 & 1/2 c margarine/butter
1 c brown sugar
1 c white sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
5 c flour
2 tsp baking soda*
1 lb raisins
1 lb dates or diced citrin
2 lbs pecans (pieces)

Beat eggs. Add sugars & mix well. Add melted butter & cream mixture thoroughly. Add soda*. Mix in flour and remaining ingredients. Form into small balls approx 1″ or less. Wet hands to avoid sticking. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake 30 minutes in slow oven: 275-300 F.

* dissolve in 2 Tbls water
