Salted Caramel Krispie Bites
By
Today I bring you a treat that is incredibly addicting. I could seriously eat the whole pan of them. They are like crack! What are they? Salted Caramel Krispie Bites. The girls thought these were fun to make though they did get a bit bored waiting for the caramel to cook. I found the recipe on Pots and Pins and I'll make you go there for it. I, however, made mine into bites instead of bars. After making the krispie part of the recipe, instead of putting it into a 9 x 13 pan for bars, I had my girls spoon it into mini muffin pans. They spooned just enough to fill the holes and not go over. I had to help a bit because they were being slow and the krispies were starting to harden. Next, we took a wooden spoon and made a hole in the middle of each krispie. Again, do this quickly because the krispies will harden making it more difficult to make the hole. When the caramel was done cooking we poured the caramel into the holes we made then all over the krispies … [Read more...]

16 Insider Tips For Your Next Cruise #SeasTheDay
By
I've been back from my Royal Caribbean cruise (and extra night in Ft. Lauderdale, FL) for a little over 36 hours. I've been busily (and anxiously) sorting through my photos while trying to spend some much needed time with my family. However, I started writing down things I learned while on the cruise as I was on it, so I thought I would share some insider tips with you while you wait for my photos. Please note that my cruise was part of a collaboration with Royal Caribbean, and though they sponsored it, all thoughts and opinions are my own. This is my second cruise with Royal Caribbean so I thought I knew everything there was to know about them and cruising. Boy was I wrong! I learned so much more on this cruise, both on my own and from the other 39 bloggers I was with. Here are 16 insider tips for cruising (especially with Royal Caribbean): Bonine works much better than Dramamine for sea sickness. My first cruise I got sea sick the first night. I took Bonine once a day and … [Read more...]
