Bill it's good YOU said that and not us. Bahaha

Carly, can I ask what are Hello Dolly cookies?

Yes, of course.

In your 13x9" pan melt 1/2 stick of butter.

Pour 1 cup of Graham cracker (crumbs) on top.

Then add 1 cup chocolate chips. (semi-sweet or milk choc.) 1 cup of coconut. 1 cup pecans chopped. Then you would pour on top the (small can) Eagle brand sweet condensed milk.

Bake on 350 for about 30 minutes or until all is melted. Cool it down and then slice in squares.

Enjoy!

Does anyone regularly do gingerbread houses? I thought that would be a fun tradition but could not get anybody interested in it but me. :(

I have never done a gingerbread house but my daughter did one.

Maybe just start it and it could be a fun tradition.

The thing that always bothered me is that when you go through so much work to make that Gingerbread house I would not want anyone to break it up to eat. lol

Carly you are so right. Last year I bought the kids a kit with already baked pieces to put together and decorate but never got to do it with them.

Everything sounds so good and is giving me more ideas of things I may like to try. For me though, it may be safer to just admire from afar. ... at least for now til I am certain I will not be sampling too much.

Nothing sucks more than loving to cook and bake but having to watch and try NOT to eat it. Augh!

Carly, I am trying your Hello Dollys tomorrow, but I am trying with almonds instead. Hoping I don't ruin them.

    I invited Bill to have dinner with me last Sunday. He wasn't willing to drive 7 hours to mid Michigan and teased me with his beautiful ribs!!! So, of course I ate alone and had cedar salmon

    It's going to get hotter here with Thursday being the hottest. It's noon and 75f feels more like 80 or more.I've been cleaning up the deck in this morning and cleaning the windows outside. Then I cut up a  pallet in half, I've decided to call it quits now because I went a bit light headed. Joanne, some drugs we take have an effect on us in the heat, I know a couple of mine do, maybe yours...
