Yum!

Recipes I {simply} must try...and share



{PUMPKIN OREO CHEESECAKE
}

2-8 oz pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp. sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. canned pumpkin
oreos
whipped cream

Preheat oven to 350* Place cupcake liners in a muffin pan. Beat the cream cheese until creamy. Add the sugar and cream again. Add the eggs one at a time beating after each one. Add the rest of the ingredients and beat again. Place one whole oreo in the bottom of the cupcake liners and fill up the liner 3/4 full with the cheesecake batter. Push another whole oreo into the top of the batter. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Cool in pan for 15-20 min before removing and placing on a wire rack to finish cooling. Keep refrigerated. Top with whipped cream and oreo sprinkles before serving. Makes 24.




{Cucumber stuffed with Spicy Crab}

When I saw this it screamed amazing! I really want to give this a try.



{Mozzarella, Tomato and Avocado}

The word avocado immediately grabbed my attention! I think this would satisfy any appetite! Add it to a nice bowl of soup...sounds like a yummy meal to me.

{Dessert in a Jar}

That title alone..um..yes please.
This is such a fabulous idea. I'll have another.

Since this was some time ago, I'm not sure what I was fixated on; possibly a ball or something with a squeaker inside.

Turkey in Disguise


Last week sure was a short week {2 days..whoop!} We had loads of {turkey} fun: read about turkeys, made turkey hats, ate turkey for lunch, and even made turkey's in disguise.

Above we wrote about what we were thankful for and below is a fun disguise a turkey project that I think the kids and the parents enjoyed.


My students were given a take home project and asked to disguise a turkey for Thanksgiving. Here are some of the awesome results. I was truly impressed {these parents really go all out}.

My momma heard that if you bring in a photo of your bestest dog in return they will not only hang it up--but you also get a FREE appetizer and a nice bag of treats from the Bluegrass Barkery {my favorite}. And so she did..man I love her {and she loves me}!
