Susan, no wonder you said your bank acct was depleting .. Can't very well pay things twice and still have $$$..hope it can be straightened out or it will be a long month for you..now why couldn't they have caught this and appalled to inquire..people just seem to go the extra mile anymore do they

Katie, I'm sure the workers enjoy the extra hours, hard to feed families when there is no work..

Seemed like Christmas, one was trading chairs, the other had recipe's for us, ann painting a lighthouse for a church draw.

Aline isn't moving around well, waiting for her hip surgery, hoping to get a call in the next week or so as specialist marked urgent..she knit Rita a poncho, nice cable work.

So some painting, knitting and sewing going ..mostly chatting though.

Need to go to town and get supplies, want to try Ann's "Ritz Cracker Candy" recipe

1-2 sleeps ritz crackers
1 1/2 c unsalted butter
1 1/2 c firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c chocolate chips
1/2 c chopped pecans
1/2 c peanut butter chips/white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper
And arrange crackers on it in a single layer

Melt butter and brown sugar together in sauce pan over med-low heat.
After its melted, increase eat to med-high and boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.pour this mixture over the cracker layer

Bake 5 minutes and remove from oven.sprinkle crackers with chocolate chips and put back into oven for 3 minutes (oven will be turned off but still warm)

Spread the melted chocolate over crackers and top with pecans and remaining chips

Allow to cool completely and break apart to serve

Sounds interesting, haven't any of the ingredients except for brown sugar..know if I make and they taste good I'll end up eating them all...Drats should I or should I not try these. Lol
