Almond toffee squares.

Soooo i made yummies for my French class today using a recipie i got off the back of the eagle brand condensed milk can. Use it, love it. OK so you need this shiz
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 can of condensed milk
1 1/4 stick of butter (one stick will work just fine though) and leave it out of the fridge for a bit to soften it up. It shouldnt be melted down though
6 heath bars all chopped up
1 cup sliced almonds
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 egg beaten
13X9 inch pan (well covered with a layer of pam or i guess butter would do too, anything to keep the melted toffee from sticking)

- hokay, so combine the butter, flour, and sugar and mush it up with the butter to make a crumbly texture. Pack it down in the bottom of the pammed up pan and cook it for 15 minutes on 350.

-while that cooks, combine the beaten egg, condesed milk, almond extract, almond slivers, and the chopped up heath bars. Mix this up well and once the cookie bottom is finished, take it out and spread the almond paste mixture thing on top.

-Pop is back into the oven and let it cook for 20 minutes or so until its lightly browned. WOOT!

I want this one!

Puppy!!!! He kinda looks like a black sheep, right? I'll name him jack and bake him doggie treats.

Armenians...yeasshhh

So in honor of my Armenian friend, Aleen, I'm raising awarenesses of the Armenian Genocide. So right after the end of WWI, there was a systematic destruction of the Armenian population of the ottoman empire(now known as the republic of Turkey) by the Ottoman officials. It led to the death of over one and a half million Armenians and it the second most studied case of genocide. The republic of Turkey refuses to recognize this tragic attempt at exterminating a people as a genocide even though over 22 countries and 42 American states have recognized it. For more info , check this out! http://www.anca.org/ and stay updated on the fight to get the genocide recognized!

Leave the gun, take the canoli...

All my sons will be forced to watch The Godfather as a rite of passage into manhood and for them to be recognized as a contributing member to the family discussions. I mean it teaches them all they need to know....days of the week, how to make spaghetti, how to smoke a police chief, how to throw a slammin wedding, how not to get involved with drugs, and most importantly- the consequences of beating your wife.

These are a few of my favorite things

So its summer time again and of course that means ive been spending my time scourging websites and maggs for cute summer clothes that wont destroy my bugdget or tempt me to whip out the good ole gass-money credit card.
