Hello! I hope everyone is having a fabulous Saturday! It is FINALLY cold and starting to look like fall here! I took a few pictures of some trees in my parents yard.
Bobby and I ran 10 miles this morning. It was supposed to be 13, but I made a boo boo. I wear a shoe insert in one of my running shoes because I have one leg considerably shorter than the other since my hips are so off, and it causes a LOT of hip pain. If you are a long time reader you may remember me talking about my hip pain. Anyway, This morning I wore my new running shoes for the first time and didn’t think to put the insert in. Well, my hip reminded me about mile 7 or 8 that I had forgotten. We hobbled along back to the house and made it 10 miles, but I was in a LOT of pain. Oh well. I don’t think it’s going to make or break me finishing the race.
Moving on, I have a yummy, easy, Christmas recipe to share. I made these for a Christmas party this week and they were a big hit! So simple but so good. All you need is this:
-M & M’s
-Rolos
-Pretzels
Directions:
-Preheat oven to 350
-lay pretzels out flat on baking sheet (I put them on parchment paper, too)
-put one rolo on each pretzel
-put in oven for two minutes
-remove from oven and press one M & M into each rolo
-put in refrigerator to harden chocolate
I am sitting by the fire, and it is making me sleepy. I may take a nap. Have a great evening everyone!
QOTD: What is your favorite Christmas dessert?
Making garbage bread right now. Does that count??
not sure what that is but it counts haha
Love the leaves…but sorry to hear about the hip.
thanks. I am sure it will be ok when I get my shoe insert in!
OMG that sounds delicious!!! Thanks for posting the recipe!
I commented this morning on our run that those are the only kinds of trees that actually look “Fallish” around here. So sad! :0(
haha I know! everything else just turned brown. in MS we have ONE other kind of tree that turns bright red, but it has a different kind of leaves and they are really pretty but I haven’t seen any here!
I love that pretzel recipe. It looks so simple. Thanks for sharing it.
no problem!

You read my mind. Friday I bought a bunch of rolos because they’re my mom’s favorite and I wanted to make her something with them for Christmas
Thanks girl!
And you’re right, the difference between 10 and 13 miles won’t make or break getting the Mickey medal!
they are really yumy and so easy! I havent had rolos in so long!
I have seen that recipe before and it is so good. Thanks for posting it! I might try that for my bunko night!
