Tomato Cage as a Christmas Tree!
I visited a college today and saw this darling idea for an easy Christmas tree. Turn a tomato cage upside down, tie up the top and decorate away!
It's always great to find alternative Christmas trees. I have so many tree ornaments that I like to display separated by theme, so this is a handy idea. Thanks for sharing! Carrie
1 (16 oz.) jar unsalted peanuts 1 (16 oz.) jar salted peanuts 1 (12 oz.) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 (12 oz.) bag milk chocolate chips 2 (12 oz.) bags peanut butter chips 2 (1 lb.) packages White Almond Bark, broken in pieces
Layer ingredients, in order listed, into (4 quart or larger) crockpot. Turn the pot on low and cover with a lid. After two hours, remove lid and stir to combine. Replace lid and check again in 30 minutes. When all ingredients are melted, stir to combine. Ladle spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Allow to sit up - 1 hour.Thanks, Aunt Patsy!
My Must Try for This Year!!
Easy Fudge
1 bag chocolate chips
1 can sweetened condensed milk
4 T butter
1 t vanilla
1/2 t salt
Microwave butter, chips and milk, in 30 second intervals, stirring between timings. When all is melted stir in vanilla and salt. Stir well. Pour into a foil lined and buttered 8 by 8" pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove from pan, remove foil. Cut into 1" pieces.
Very cute, I love Christmas and am a gardener so this one is a winner for me. I posted a review today on my blog of my book about Christmas. Terra
