Delivery #62 and #63 and a Sweet Treat

A little late posting this, made our deliveries on our way to a food truck rally.  Then we got busy eating and forgot to post.  Hope you enjoyed!

Also a cute little family left some yummy treats for us...thanks!

G wants the last one.

Ancient Fehry Secret

When Jason and I got married there were two things that Jason would ask me to make; his Mom's turkey stuffing casserole and his grandmother's blondies.  I got the stuffing recipe from his mom (although he always say his moms is better).  I thought for sure I knew how to make blondies so I went through recipe after recipe, it was never right.  After about 5 years he told me that it had no chocolate chips and about 10 years into marriage he told me it had a crust on top, I couldn't even find a recipe close to that.  This January was our 20th anniversary, which means I have spent almost 20 years trying to recreate this recipe from his memory.   Thanksgiving of last year Jason's parents came out for a visit, they live in New York so we haven't spent a lot of time with them. We got to talking about the blondies.  His mom texted his aunt who then texted another aunt who had the recipe! Jason's dad was even excited to taste these elusive blondies again. It was a fun moment, to hear them reminiscing about Jason's grandma and grandpa, they had died before we met.  It was one of those few minutes in time that sticks in your brain as opposed to the other billion minutes that slip away unremarkable.  

Jason lost his dad this spring.  It breaks my heart to think my kids won't grow up close to their grandpa.  We will have to make memories last and this recipe is a special connection to those memories.

Separating the eggs.

The amazing top crust.

I have to say this recipe was worth the wait.  I've never had anything like it, its buttery yummy brownie texture on bottom with a sweet sugar crust on top that snaps a little when you bite it.  You aren't going to find this recipe on Pinterest, this is a one of a kind.  Believe me I've looked ;)

Delivery #61

This goes to the little buddy that likes to hang over here.  He says he can't eat wheat so here are some gluten free treats! The lite three made this delivery all by themselves. Enjoy!

Delivery #58, #59, and #60

We had a big delivery crew out today. Enjoy!

Glutton of Gluten Freeness

G and I try to try stay off gluten, she because of her eczema and me because I feel better.  We decided to make some gluten free muffins to freeze for breakfasts on those school morning when we are stressed for time (every morning).  I feel like chocolate does a good job of hiding the gluten freeness.  So chocolate it is.  Plus this recipe hides a secret veggie,  which is my secret passion in life - sneaking veggies into my kids food ;)

Viv is the only kid allowed to know the secret ingredient because she will eat anything (except raw tomatoes and coconut) so she gets as much joy as me from sneaking in veggies.

Fun in the Sun-day

We have a package of Trader Joes gummy bears that are burning a hole in our pantry shelf.  What can you do with gummy bears?  Ask Pinterest.  She says (I'm positive that Pinterest is a girl) you can make a movie cake.  It kind of a hybrid of rice crispy treats and popcorn balls with candy and chocolate thrown in.

  

Very Fortunate Day

Lots of fun projects the morning!

First we made fortune cookies.  Kai once got a fortune that said "in exactly 6 months from today you will go to a big party".  Guess what was exactly six months from that date?  His birthday! He is now a fortune believer.

These were surprisingly easy to make but very time consuming.  We had various fortune writers.  Fortune cookies

Shaping the cookies, you have to act fast.  Yes that is a Binkie in Vivs mouth, I'm sure one of her dolls is crying her eyes out right now because she is binkieless.
