Maybe.

I finally started some Christmas baking!!
Hee-hee-I'm on my way now!

Actually, I will fess up. Kaitlin did most of the Mars Bars - Rice Krispie squares. I just helped with the tough arm breaking mixing and the clean up.

But none the less I feel like we got somewhere tonight.

The tree is still looking like crap though, BUT I found the most wonderful perfect tree skirt at the Bay for $30.00, it was 50% off. It is the most beautiful part of the tree right now.

Tomorrow night for sure if it kills me! That and at least two batches of caramel popcorn. Maybe Kaitlin will do the Mint Nanimo bars.

No drinking until the tree is done.

I promise.

Maybe.

Hey, Aunty M, Can I please please please get the ancient chinese secret for your recipe for Mars Rice Krispy Squares???

Well, the whole recipe would be best, but if only the ancient chinese secret is available, I will take what I can get...

VERY EASY, melt 3 Mars Bars with the marshmallows. I find it works best to melt theMars bars in a separate dishe (in the microwave) and then to mix them in with the melted marshmallows before adding the rice krispies. The Mars Bars take longer and don't melt very well, but chunks of them in the squares is good too. It is a VERY sticky gooey mess but cleans up very easily, even with your tongue.

Ooooh! Now I REALLY can't wait to get there for Christmas.. though I guess I can't have any of the rice krispy squares if you put CHOCOLATE in them. Boohoo! Oh well. I got a tin of poppycock from Mom Machney and I'm already almost done the whole thing. Nothing like the seasonal craving for sweets!
