Holiday Recap in Photos





  We had a lovely holiday!  Everyone ate goodies until they couldn't move.

Mr. Backwoods as proof.


We joined friends to make use of new toys, where my camera was kidnapped.


He didn't understand my "fancy camera", hehe, hence the blur.


Then it was subsequently used against me.


We played new Wii games until no one could move their limbs.
Eventually I regained possession of the camera.

And the critters all had fun, too.




And by popular request, the recipe for the Rolo Pretzel Turtles.




Heat oven to 300 degrees.
Place pretzels on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or non-stick foil.
Place one rolo candy on top of each pretzel.
Place in oven for 4 minutes until rolo gets soft.
Smush a pecan on top of each.
Place cookie sheet in fridge until chocolate and caramel re-hardens.
Pull off cookie sheet liner and stuff face until sick.


These are the easiest thing I have ever made, and they were gobbled up the fastest this year.  I found out about these from the pod on NSBR last year, but they just seemed to simple to be that good.  Boy was I wrong!

Enjoy!
