Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving, you ask. I know that it is February, but I just got ahold of some really cute Thanksgiving pictures, and I would like to post them. Brad's mom and dad and his sister's family all came here for Thanksgiving. Well, actually, his mom and dad went to Houston, and Heidi and her family came here. However, we all went over to Houston to Ryan and Jayme's for Thanksgiving.

It was so great having all the cousins together! The last time we were all together was 4 years ago and 7 kids ago. It was chaos to say the least!

Here are all the grandkids with Candi and Duane:

There are still more pictures that I would like to post, but that will just have to wait for another time. I am tired. I hope that all is well out in cyberland.

Heavenly Goodness

As I promised, here is the recipe for Molten Marshmallow Chocolate Cakes:

This recipe is made in 6 ramekins. However, I have made it in 7-8 muffin tins, and it works just as well.

1 1/3 c. chocolate chips
1/4 c. butter
1/3 c. sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. flour
6-8 big marshmallows

In a saucepan, over very low heat, melt chips and butter. Whisk in sugar, eggs and vanilla until well blended. Stir in flour. Fill 6 floured, buttered ramekins, 1/2 way full. Press a marshmallow into the center and cover with remaining batter, completely covering. Bake until tops are puffed up and crackly at 350 degrees, 12-15 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve warm.

These are just wonderful. A perfect treat for any dessert lover like me! Enjoy!
