Hi guys, happy Monday!

I hope anyone in the path of Irma is doing okay today.

I spent my weekend watching the CNN coverage and screaming “GET CHRIS CUOMO OUT OF THE STREET!” at the TV because he was just standing there getting battered by rain and wind and he is too hot to be doing such a thing.

Not much else going on around here this weekend. It’s too cold to go to the lake but still a bit too hot for hiking after, like, 9 am.

So yeah, hurricane coverage, football, and chicken wings were my entire weekend.

S’mores Monster Cookies

Aug 10, 2017

S’mores Monster Cookies – addictive peanut butter cookies loaded with oats, Rice Krispies, pecans, milk chocolate, and marshmallows! 

Happy National S’mores Day!

How are you celebrating?! Can I suggest my favorite Raspberry White Chocolate S’mores?

When it comes to cookies, I either like a plain, boring shortbread or something loaded with everything you have in the kitchen. No in between with me.

So for these S’mores Monster Cookies, I started with a peanut butter base and then added oats, Rice Krispies, pecans, chopped Hershey’s bars, and tiny marshmallows.

They’re delicious and everything I want in a cookie.

Okay.

I know.

There’s a lot going on in these.

I was just going to do a regular s’mores rice krispies treat but add bacon for the sweet and salty but I love peanut butter with bacon and once that idea popped in my head, it was all I could think about.

Mississippi Mud Cookies – the perfect cookie for chocolate lovers! A chocolate cookie with pecans, chocolate chips, and marshmallows!

Hey guys, happy Friday! I made cookies!

I mentioned earlier that I was back in my s’mores obsession which means my kitchen is full of every size marshmallow, 15 different kinds of chocolate, etc, etc, etc.

So when I needed cookies at 2 am after a particularly rough day recently, I made these Mississippi Mud Cookies. Because chocolate and marshmallows. And also pecans.

Everything I love.

They’re also super easy and you should totally make them sometime this weekend.

Like, this weekend if we get our you-know-what together in time.

Homemade Sprinkle Marshmallows

Homemade Sprinkle Marshmallows - easy homemade marshmallow recipe. Only 6 ingredients and so fun for s'mores or hot chocolate!

Okay, so this isn’t technically s’mores but how fun are s’mores made with sprinkle marshmallows?!

I’m obsessed.

But first, we haven’t talked Olympics.

Are you into it?

I really only care about the opening ceremony and gymnastics.

I was such a mess during the opening ceremony. I happy cried through most of it and I can’t even explain it. Every time they introduced a new country, I squealed, “Aww!” and started crying.

My kids left the room after the first 2 countries. No idea why.

Day 2 of #SmoresWeek!

This is kind of torturous for me because I decided to go paleo on Saturday or Sunday or somewhere around there. I can’t remember, my brain is not functioning correctly due to lack of pizza and sushi.

I’m not doing it longterm.

Also, not really paleo because I still put large amounts of splenda in my coffee and drink 15 Diet Pepsis a day.

But, foodwise… paleo.

It’s been…

Uggghhhh.

I just want a warm chocolate chip cookie.

That’s it. Just one cookie.

To distract myself, I’ve been binge-watching Wentworth. Have you seen it? It’s like Orange is the New Black but without the funny parts and I was bawling halfway through the first episode. It’s intense.

Peanut Butter Bacon S’mores

Aug 14, 2015

Peanut Butter Bacon S'mores - made with Reeses peanut butter cups and crispy bacon!

Last day of S’mores Week!

It has to include bacon. Because duh. Why wouldn’t I combine my two favorite foods ever?

I’m having this weird thing with flavored bacon right now. I’ve always been kind of a purist when it comes to bacon. I would only buy the plain, center cut bacon. But then I discovered honey bourbon bacon and my life hasn’t been the same since.

If you can find it (I’ve only seen it at Walmart but I live in Tiny City, TX so it may be in other stores – it’s by Wright Brand), I highly suggest using it for these s’mores. I mean, honey. And bourbon. Bacon. On s’mores.

If you can’t find it, maple bacon works too! Or just use regular bacon! Bacon is bacon and bacon is good.

Okay, so under the bacon is a Reeses peanut butter cup. S’mores made with peanut butter cups are THE BEST.

You should totally make these. Make them on your stove after your kids are in bed so you don’t have to share. I won’t judge you.

Nicole made Chocolately S’mores Ice Cream and it looks amazing! I would love a big bowl!

I hope you enjoyed S’mores Week! I know I did! I also know that my jeans are now a tiny bit tighter than they were last week.

Worth it.

So we’re calling them S’mores Muddy Buddies.

S’mores Pancakes

Aug 10, 2015

S'mores Pancakes! Graham cracker pancakes with marshmallow creme and chocolate in the middle!

HAPPY MONDAY!

And yes, it is a happy Monday because it’s the start of S’mores Week!

Nicole and I did a s’mores week a couple years ago and decided to do it again. Because you can never have enough s’mores in your life!

S'mores week!

Let’s start the week with pancakes!

Guys. These are seriously the first pancakes I’ve made in years. Years. I had the world’s worst stove in Colorado so pancakes would either be pale and raw in the center or completely black.

I can make pancakes again!

And these S’mores Pancakes are killer!

Regular pancakes (I used Bisquick because I love Bisquick but you can use any mix you like or a homemade batter) with graham cracker crumbs sprinkled on top while cooking. And then you spread marshmallow creme over the warm pancake and sprinkle chocolate on top of that and then you top it off with another pancakes.

Maple syrup not required!

Nicole made S’mores Rice Krispie Treats! Make sure you stop by and check those out. They’re the perfect treat for this stupid hot weather we’re having since you don’t have to turn the oven on!

S’mores Nachos

Mar 06, 2015

S'Mores Nachos! There's nothing better than a plate of s'mores!

When we roadtripped to Alabama over my husband’s Christmas leave (#clemgoestoalabama if you want to look it up on Instagram), we ended around a bonfire at my sister-in-law’s house one night. It was sprinkling and cold but we stuck it out. And then, of course, as soon as we pulled out her s’mores kit (our family takes s’mores very seriously), it started pouring. 

And we never got our s’mores. 

So when it came time to put a twist on a classic for Albertsons Pin That Twist!, I had s’mores on the brain. 

You guys know that I frequently roast marshmallows over my gas stove to entertain my children and myself. I even have a Microwave S’mores recipe on the blog. I am all about anything that gets me s’mores faster than, you know, lighting a bonfire. 

Now I have a way to serve s’mores to the whole family at once! Or keep them all to myself. Whatever.

S'Mores Nachos! There's nothing better than a plate of s'mores!

S’mores Nachos! They are a layer of graham crackers with chopped up milk chocolate candy bars sprinkle over them and then some Jet Puffed Mini Marshmallows on top. Put that in the oven for about 5 minutes and then drizzle with melted chocolate.

Okay, you don’t have to drizzle with more chocolate but it sure looks prettier that way!

Obviously, these nachos are delicious! I made them once for photos and once late that night after the kids were in bed so I wouldn’t have to share!

For more inspiration, check out the Pin That Twist! Pinterest board. If you don’t have an Albertsons near you, check out the boards from Acme Markets, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Star Market, United Supermarkets, and Market Street.     

Also, visit the Albertsons Facebook page to vote on which ingredients you’d like to see a unique on and when you vote, you’ll be entered to win a $100 giftcard! Once again, if you don’t have an Albertsons near you, check out Acme Markets, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Star Market, United Supermarkets, and Market Street.

Avalanche Bars - Rice Krispies coated with white chocolate and peanut butter with marshmallows and chocolate chips mixed in!

Happy Tuesday! Back to the real world today, huh? That long weekend sure was nice.

This morning I have to take Penelope (#idiothusky) to the vet for her regular ol’ checkup. And the big plan is to drop her off and then call Clementine’s (the cockapoo) hair girl to see if she can squeeze her in before Penelope gets home.

Because, yeah, you guessed it. She still thinks Clem is a new dog whenever she gets a haircut. Like, she actually growls at her and won’t let her near the food bowls. This has happened every 8 weeks for 2 years now.

#IdiotHusky for real.

So I’m hoping that if it happens while she’s gone, she’ll come home and think “Hey, you look different. But you’re still Clem.”

These are the things you have to think about when you live with a husky.
