Spotlight Saturday!

I've been spotlighted!!! Hooray!!! over at Survey Junkie!!!

The blog that I would like Spotlighted is theyallcallmemom

I would like to spotlight her because I think she and her

hubby are doing an amazing job at raising nine kids. They

all look happy and healthy. I have 3 of my own(all grown up now)

and we had our hands full back than. We wouldn't know what to do

with 6 more. She and hubby seem to be doing a pretty good job!

And to me that deserves to be spot lighted!!!:0)

Don't let your sub or follower count go to your big swollen head.

Now I said on twitter just yesterday that I would write

a blog post about this so here goes! Now if you get

offended by this post then I guess this means you!

This is not my first blog. I had a blog called The

GrabBag about a year ago and a few Youtube pages.

I had a few problems with my old computer so I gave

up on them. Anyway some of the people I ran across

during that time let me down as I'm sure they did others.

Once they reached 1000 or more followers, friends, or

subscribers it went to their swollen heads! Why do people

do this? And don't give me that crap about being to busy, or

I didn't see it, blah, blah, blah. Please they have time to blog

with, tweet with etc people who have the same or more followers

as they do. So don't give us that. I just  feel that is so dumb. Why

act that way when at one time you were just starting out as well.

You are not a celebrity so get over yourselves! It's just the internet.

Am I the only one seeing  this?

Just thought I'd get that off my chest!

88 Shimmer Palettes!

Hi guys! Have you ever had a chance to

try these? I think they are wonderful!

Aside from the fact that the eye shadows

are pretty small. Also some of the eye shadows

fall out of their places. Nothing a little glue

can't fix! I think you can find them cheaper

on Ebay! The next one that I want is this one:

I hope this one is as nice as the other one!
When I get it I'll be sure to make an post
about it!:0) If you guys ever try them let me
know!

Caramel Pecan Treasures!

Caramel Pecan Treasures!

Don't these look Yummy?!
I want to try them...do you?
Here is the recipe if you'd
liked to try them too! :0)


Caramel Pecan Treasures

Yield: 60 Servings
1 c Butter,softened
3/4 c light,Lightly Packed
Brown sugar
1 t Vanilla
1 3/4 c All-purpose flour
1/2 t Baking powder
12 oz Semisweet chocolate chips
1 T Vegetable shortening
25 caramels,cut in, up to 30
Half,rolled into balls
Finely pecans,Chopped
Preparation time: 50 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes

1. Heat oven to 325 degrees. Have ungreased baking sheets ready.
2. Cream butter, sugar and vanilla in large mixer bowl until well-mixed.
Stir in flour and baking powder. (If kitchen is warm, refrigerate
dough for a few minutes; dough should be firm enough to roll easily.)
Shape scant teaspoonsful of dough into balls about the size of a marble.
Place on baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between cookies. Flatten
slightly.
3. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
4. Melt chocolate chips with shortening in top of double boiler set
over simmering water. Remove from heat.
5. Flatten caramel halves so they are the same diameter as the cookie.
Put one caramel half on top of each cookie. (If necessary, use a dab of
chocolate as "glue" to help caramel adhere to cookie.) Using a small
metal spatula, spread melted chocolate thinly over top and sides of
caramel and cookie to cover. Press chopped pecans onto tops of cookies.
Let stand on a wire rack until chocolate firms (refrigerate if desired),
about 20 minutes. Put into individual paper wrappers. Store in a
cookie tin with a piece of wax paper between each layer.
