TADD with Rain

Hi Everyone! 

My post today is a going to be short and a bit different. Short because I have been traveling to keep appts. I must say that it takes its toll on me. Tomorrow is another day of it and then the weekend I am resting.
Getting old so sucks. :(
So on with the post. I placed an order with a delightful lady, named Kathleen. I was able to speak to her on the phone and I liked her immediately. She is full of lively spirit, joy and so much kindness. The best qualities in a person. So what did I order from her? Look at these beautiful baby witches brooms. They are wonderfully scented with cinnamon too. I can't wait to create with these. 
The are individually wrapped and so very well made and priced right.
 
Now this is not the only thing Kathlene has in her online store. Ohh nooooo... her website is full of beautiful jewelry and spiritual items.
Stop by and if you order be sure to tell her I sent you.
This is just a tiny example of what she sells.
 All kinds of smudge bundles.


 Spiritual jewelry


 Crystals 

 

 Incense 


 

 Oils
 

 

 Spiritual candles


 

 I hope you stop by there and have fun shopping.
 
The only food I have for this week is, wait for it, the best homemade peanut butter cups EVER!!!
Years ago I used to make these for my kids. Over the years I lost the recipe. However, going through some papers I found it again. OMG!!!! I had forgotten how addicting this candy is.
Here it is ready to cut.
 
Believe me these did not last long.
 
They literally melt in your mouth.
Sssshhhhh I put some in the freezer for later. Mr. M. doesn't know. hee hee hee.
Now for the recipe because I KNOW you want to make these.
You will need;
1C of butter melted, 2C graham cracker finely crushed. 2C powdered sugar, 1C peanut butter +4T peanut butter set aside. 
1 1/2C milk chocolate chips.
Combine first 4 ingredients. Spread in a 9x13" pan and set aside. In the microwave or on the stove, melt 4T of peanut butter and the chocolate chips until smooth. Spread on top of peanut butter in pan. Refrigerate for at least an hour. This sets the chocolate to the peanut butter. Now let it rest about 30 minutes before you cut into it. If you do it sooner the  cold chocolate will crack. Now enjoy the goodness.
 
I am linking up with Rain for TADD so be sure to stop by to see everything going on there.

I am in the same state: GETTING OLD. I made today several very fool things concerning my house hould. Don't like to tell moore... And I'm not ever been "a food person", so I envy you for your delicious resepieces and food making.
But I'm positive, and can say as one in Marily Monroe's film: "I'm not perfect..." 😇
Take care and feel 'GOOD ENOUGH... 🥰'

OMG those peanut butter cups look to die for! I will certainly try to make them when my daughter is coming to visit next year. The witch's brooms looks so cute - yes, I will certainly visit Kathleen's website.

Love the brooms! I have zimties in my shoes, I love cinnamon.
I will not look at her shop - way too dangerous! ;-)

Sad I don´t like sweets...

I'm a little behind but I like those mini brooms. And I especially like the looks of those peanut butter cups. I'm saving the recipe to give it a try. YUM! hugs-Erika

Jeanie said...

Those brooms look beautifully made. I have a good peanut butter cup recipe too but haven't made it in years. Thanks for the reminder!

Rain said...

Sis, any type of traveling is draining to me too, I hope you rest well! OMG x 1000...Peanut butter cups!!! They look SO GOOD. Alex has a peanut allergy so I don't have any in the house...I'm sure they melt in your mouth, lol that you hid some in the freezer, I do the same with homemade goodies! Kathleen has some beautiful items, I love her spiritual candles!

The little brooms are wonderful! I think you will have a lot of fun creating with them. The peanut butter cups will be nice surprise for Mr. M.

Oooo ... I copied your recipe and can't wait to try it. Peanut butter cups are a favorite in our house. Cinnamon witches brooms ... awesome, I think. How does the cinnamon work ... the aroma? Anyway, it looks like a fun place to shop and I will, for sure, take a run over :) Fun post, Nicole ...

Traveling for appointments would get old to me too. LOVE that you found your recipe. Love that! I am in almost the same boat. I wrote a recipe for peanut butter cups and it's missing. I will find it though. So fun to play!
