My Imaginary Friends

Because Sunday night was a no sleep night...I played alone in a dangerous place! My mind!!!! I decided that my followers needed to be named. You will now be called "My Imaginary Friends"
I also played in one of my favorite places Pinterest! I wanted to share a very popular recipe with you. I love chocolate and peanut butter so I am always on the hunt for yummy combs.
 
Peanut Butter Cup Brownies
Makes 40 brownies as adapted
1 box of your favorite brownie mix
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or grease 40 mini-muffin cups.
Prepare boxed brownie mix as directed. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups (about 1 heaping teaspoon). Bake for 13-15 minutes or until top is set and a toothpick inserted into center comes out slightly wet. After brownies are out of the oven, wait for centers to fall. This will happen upon cooling. If not then tap the centers with the back of a teaspoon to make a hole for the peanut butter.
Place peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45 seconds then stir. While brownies are still warm spoon about half a teaspoon of peanut butter into the center of each brownie. Top with semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips. Cool completely in pan.

Birthday Flip Book

I still really don't believe it...a very good friend of mine turned the BIG 50!!!! I met her when I was 18, first day of Hairdressing School. She changed my life. She was so cool and confident...I thought. I came to realise that she was just a big marshmallow! I love her!!! I wanted her to know that she means the world to me so I made this little flip book for her birthday.
 
 Happy Birthday Sandra!!!
 
 
I purchased this blank book at http://www.scrappingreatdeals.com/ and using my "scraps" I created this beautiful little memory album. I used old pics of the two us and I wrote a special poem. There are spaces for her to put her own pics and journal too. She cried...best response ever!
