Chocolate Dipped Wonders

Working full time now and going through a divorce, not to mention only having my smartphone to blog with. I really haven't had the time to bake or create. I do want to eventually re-vamp my blog with not just sweets but the occasional recipe and crafts too! Thank you to all of my loyal followers and fans that are sticking it out with me! Things will pick up again!
Here is a favorite from last year: Chocolate Dipped Valentine's Pretzels

Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade Bread

Love homemade bread, but simply no time to make it? In less than an hour you can go from a box to warm fresh bread by Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade Bread!
 All of the ingredients come in the box! This is the Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade Country White Bread. Simply mix the yeast package, sugar, and water and let sit 3 minutes. Mix in the bread mix, and if desired add cheese, herbs, whatever you wish. I added 8 ounces of shredded white extra sharp cheddar. Shape into loaf, place on greased baking sheet, cover, and let rise for 25 minutes. 
 Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for about 25 minutes and this is what you get, warm, cheddary, fresh bread! Let cool about 8 minutes before slicing.
 These photos really don't do the bread justice...still blogging by smart phone! The bread really isn't this yellow. Warm and cheesy, think of all of the options with different add-ins that could be used! At Under $3 a box, this bread is really worth it! Perfect for the holidays or everyday. Why buy bread when it is this simple to make? Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade also supplied me with a box of the Multi-Grain. I am going to try baking that without any add-ins which sounds perfect to slather with peanut butter!
 
Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade Bread Mix comes in 4 flavors:
Stoneground White
Italian Herb
Country White
Multi-Grain

Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade provided me with samples of both the Country White and Multi-Grain Bread mixes to try. All opinions are my own. Thanks Fleischmann’s Simply Homemade!

JELL-O Goblin Goo Drink

Happy Halloween!
Vampires, Witches, Goblins, and Ghouls alike will love starting a night of Trick-or-Treating toasting with this slimy Goblin Goo drink!
Here is what you will need for 2 goblets of goo:
1- 3 ounce package of JELL-O Gelatin
1/2 quart of prepared KOOL-AID

Prepare gelatin mix as directed on package. Refrigerate for about 4 hours until set. Break up gelatin with fork and spoon into cups. Finish filling cups with Kool-Aid.

I used grape JELL-O and strawberry KOOL-AID. The colors were too similar to show much difference. I think this would look great with lime gelatin and strawberry drink or try your own fun color combinations!
 I was a bit skeptical that this would be weird to drink or that I would have to chew it a lot. This drink is actually quite cool and yummy! Made in lighter colors it would make a very refreshing summer drink as well! Kids young and old will love drinking this slimy treat!

Wishing you all a safe and Happy Halloween!
