FUN and yummy snack!


Hey!  We tried a new snack for some of my friends. It was good, fast and super cute!


'Caramel Apple Grapes'
Ingredients:
1 cup caramel bits
2 tablespoons heavy cream
handful of seedless green grapes
1 cup salted peanuts, crushed
toothpicks
Directions
1. Poke toothpicks into the tops of each grape; set aside.
2. In a small pot over medium-low heat, combine the caramel bits and cream. Stir until melted. Reduce heat to lowest setting just to keep warm.
3. Place the peanuts in a shallow dish and dip the grapes into the caramel sauce and then roll in the crushed nuts. Place on a plate to set. Repeat until all the grapes are used.


It's been a rainy day; and I have enjoyed it.  The rain has been so refreshing it was a perfect day for soup or stew. After pilfering in the freezer, I found a bag of cooked beans and rice. The taste was really good but the rice had gotten too soft and it just needed a crunch factor. I kept contemplating and decided to steam some corn niblets. I wish I had had some green onions to sprinkle on top.  It was warm and comforting. A couple of hoe cakes on the side, tabasco sauce and dill pickles!  
That's some good eating!
