Add as you like: Almonds, peanuts, shelled sunflower seeds, banana chips, yogurt cranberries, yogurt nuts, raisins, craisins, any other dried fruit you like, mini-M&M's, peanut M&M's, and Reese Pieces.<br />Modify according to your tastes, and amounts depends on how much you want. I use three boxes of granola cereal and mountains of the other stuff, but I'm feeding a giant.S.R.

And by that I mean, I'm good at following directions. <br /><br />Memorable gifts...so I'm that person that goes and finds something for myself and says, "Look what you got me!" I do pride myself on finding unique gifts for folks. I bought a friend of mine who was going to another job (though he returned later) a custom made sock monkey- yes it was blue. It was a software coding monkey; if you're not aware, software developers are lovingly or derogatorily referred to as "code monkeys". <br /><br />For the record, I need gorp and scotcharoo recipes ASAP.

Will give him explicit instructions to add zest to your life. At least until Dr. Who returns to provide it. Or chocolate, you might try chocolate for those dry spells. It usually provides the necessary energy to give you an edge when wrestling with your thoughts. <br />(Email: TheGlitterGlobe@gmail.com)S.R.

I roll over in my bed dreading the day. I wrestle with my thoughts. Why do I have no zest for life? No desire to Carpe my diem? Mid-life crisis? Low blood sugar? No Doctor Who until Christmas?<br />And then it hits me. No wonder I don't face the oncoming day with wide-eyed excitement! I don't have a slinky dog!<br />Bring life back into my day!

Emergency. It is good though, that only several of them were missing. Dear Hubby's BFF is a genuine giant and he would eat them all. We don't even argue if he does it in front of us, we're just so glad that he isn't grinding our bones to make his bread, you know? Scotcharoos might be just the thing for him. S.R.

Did they use a real oven? You left out the most important detail, was the cake chocolate? And I think you deserve a box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans just because it is too cool that your hubby gave you a katana for VALENTINE'S DAY! Not every girl would find that romantic. S.R.

I recently made a quadruple batch of scotcharoos for my best friend's wedding. I had to hover over my brother for lack of trust - he always takes my baked goods.<br /><br />My dad is the worst though. I swear, I can make something, walk away for a quick break, come back and several of whatever it is will be missing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10323759531297056433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891315061138069736.post-16234238082847394592012-10-21T20:55:35.838-04:002012-10-21T20:55:35.838-04:00Hello Stephanie!

OH BUT I HAVE AN AMAZING GREAT SURPRISE FOR YOU... try greek yoghurt cake. I just made it awhile ago and it was the best cake ever. All you need is 1 cup of Greek Yoghurt, cake mix (I've only tried chocolate) and 1 cup of water. Stir them together and cook like normal cake. :) Enjoy when done... It is sooo moist and yummy! :) Mmmmnnmmmm!!!

One of the activities they had us do was an easy bake oven contest. Only the mix they gave us was apparently not formulated for the tiny pans that fit in the thing. First attempt got EVERYWHERE. Enter the microwave. We mixed it up popped it in and they came out beautifully. ^.^ We didn't win, but the other guys totally cheated.

They of course went the way of all things we out grow or play with until they are gone. I thin it is a clever idea for a contest and what would I do with one just enjoy its funny way of following me around like I did as kid. Just a clever contest.
