"and bring some for the big kids too!"

I was reading through some older posts today, from previous years, and ran across this one from Thanksgiving 2008. We drove to Dallas for Thanksgiving last year; this year we'll be driving 1/2-mile to Ricky's daughter's house. I think I'll still make "the recipe" and take it with me... for the big kids.

The Post from November, 2008...

I had to go to the grocery store this morning. I've decided to make Marshmallow Treats for my grandkiddos, for Thanksgiving. I called all 3 of my adult daughters this morning for various getting it together reasons... and all 3 told me the same thing when I told them of my culinary surprise... "bring enough for the big kiddos too!" So off I went to the store at 7:30am, to beat the crowds (which I did).

I like using the "original brand name" cereal, not the store brand. I've found that the original is crispier and tastier... and heck, I only make the treats once or twice a year. When I found the "brand name" cereal, it didn't have the recipe on the box. (I later found that Rice Krispies puts the recipe on the inside of the box! Go figure?) The store brand did, but I didn't want that cereal. I knew what the ingredients were: puff rice cereal, marshmallows, butter... okay... got those... but no recipe.

Thank the Lord and Al Gore for the internet! I found the recipe and printed it for future use. So here dear friends, is a link to "The Original" recipe for marshmallow treats. Use it in good health!

and yes... Still thinking about food down here in French Lique...
