FANTASY FUDGE & Saucy MEATBALLS





I was sitting thinking of my sister Sarah and thought I'd make up her favorite item to receive from me in the mail...FUDGE! I don't know of anyone who loves this more in my family. Mom made this when we were younger and has passed it on to me. I think it is best frozen (could be that is because Texas is so dang HOT!), and have had numerous "outer body experiences" LOL feasting on these bad boys while at the beach or when I just need a pick-me-up! Hope these brighten your day as they have mine.

Also decided to make a card of my brother DONNY PAULs favorite dish. Since before I can remember his eyes roll back in his head when he gets a plate full of these babies! Really simple to make and to enjoy.

Banana Pudding - SOOOO GOOD!




My favorite Banana Pudding Recipe. My mom has made this for years! My brother Donny LOVES this. It is amazing and always a treat during the Easter holiday. Forget that fake Jello Pudding stuff and treat your family to the best tasting pudding you'll ever put in your mouth. Happy Easter!

GC - Salsa




Every General Conference we have a tradition of making "dips" during the Saturday sessions. Our family favorite is Uncle Craig's Salsa. No matter how many times we make it, it doesn't taste as good as when he makes it! We miss being with him and his sweet family. However, we still try and love this special time of year when we get wonderful council from our beloved prophet and leaders of our great, true church.

SLUSH SLUSH SLUSH!



We call this "Linda Rutty Punch" in my family. Linda was a "super" mom during my elementary school days who always brought this yummy punch to our Valentines parties. My mom asked her for the recipe and it's been a family favorite since. I make this every Easter. My kids LOVE it. Hope your family loves it too!
