Busy Weekend

Edwin and Dad were busy this weekend-They changed the car from burn to beauty.

Great job Edwin

This last weekend we got to listen to Edwin do his thesis presentation at the University of Idaho. He was so awesome and we are so proud of him!

Fun Weekend

It was a great weekend when Edwin & Jessi brought Becca from the airport in Spokane. We just hung out here at the house and had some great meals. The kids took me shopping so i could find some clothes that were easier to put on then we went shopping at Walmart. They were trying to put me in the motor cart but I rode in the wheel chair instead and that was bad enough. We made it fun. Don't think my armpits could have taken the long shopping trip. Sorry we missed a picture of Steve he was spending time with his family.

PB Cornflake No-Bakes

The best recipes are the ones that you need to call your mom to get. I am on my way to a Super Bowl Party, and I thought I would make something sweet to take and peanut butter is a big hit with this crowd. PB Cornflake No-Bakes are perfect because they don't take very long and they are so yummy.

Here is the recipe:

1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup Peanut butter
4 cups cornflakes


Bring sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Boil for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in vanilla a PB, then cornflakes. Drop on to wax paper right away. Left stand. Enjoy.

Thanks Mom

PS The pictures are not great because I was the baker and photographer and if you have ever made these cookies before you know that you are in a hurry once the boiling starts.

While it snows

While it snows I do a little sewing-this is my late Christmas towels for a friend
