I always see these on Stampin When I Can and I just have to do one too! Sounds a lot like me except I would put a little less desire and more defiance.

You Are Marge Simpson

You're a devoted family member who loves unconditionally. Sometimes, though, you dream about living a wild secret life! You will be remembered for: your good cooking and evading the police Your life philosophy: "You should listen to your heart, and not the voices in your head."

The Simpsons Personality Test

Talking to Santa!

The kids got to see Santa today! Nick told Santa that he wanted a WII and and Xbox 360 and something else that was expensive. Santa told Nick that he thought that Nick might need to get a job instead! I thought that was a good answer. Grace's was simple, she wants a Barbie. The photo is not that great since there was a big shadow across the faces. I did what I could to correct it at least the photo was free! I think this Santa genuinely likes kids, he was a good Santa.

Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

This is the best Peanut Butter Cookie recipe that I have found. It has a great PB taste and the cookies are soft and chewy not hard.

2 sticks butter (1 cup) - softened to room temperature
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour (sifted) I usually don't sift.
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

1) Combine the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using a mixer on a medium to
low speed until light and fluffy.
2) Slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined. Then mix in flour,
baking soda and salt.
3) Roll dough into approximately 1- 1/2 in balls and place on a cookie sheet
lined with parchment paper. Place about 2 inches apart.
4) Dip a fork into sugar and flatten each ball in a criss-cross pattern.
5) Bake at 325 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. I bake just until the bottom of the
cookies become a light brown.

I also like to add chocolate chip "chunks" to the dough and then you would just roll into balls and bake and do not flatten.

Scrapbook challenge page

This is a challenge from Splitcoaststampers. The challenge is SBSc117 dated November 30, 2007. The designer/artist of this sketch is MICHELLE (flaxychick). I have decided to start doing the challenges - hopefully once or twice a week in the hopes of getting caught up on my scrapbooking - yeah right.

The paper is textured paper and it looks a little funky in the photo. I stamped a flower on the paper in Versamark and layered several paper flowers with a brad in the center.
