Land O Lakes Cinnamon Butter Spread

I didn't know about this product until Pssst... sent me an email asking me to try it. But I am so glad that they did!

This is what Land O Lakes has to say about it on their website

Land O’Lakes is expanding its line of popular spreadable butter products with new LAND O LAKES® Cinnamon Sugar Butter Spread. Cinnamon and sugar are blended into an all-natural butter for a delightfully sweet taste that you’ll love. The new Cinnamon Sugar Butter Spread is all-natural with no artificial ingredients, so moms can feel good about serving it to their families. Convenient and versatile, it can be used for spreading on your favorite breads and pastries or as an ingredient in cooking or baking.

Here's what I have to say..."YUM!!" I had my suspicions that this product would be butter with very little cinnamon or sugar, but I was wrong. There is so much cinnamon in this product that I wonder how they did it! It's so tasty and easy to use.
I was making cinnamon toast for Hannah every morning and would cut off bits of butter and sprinkle it with sugar and cinnamon. It was not a very consistent product. But with this, not only is it so much easier, every bite is super tasty!

I'm excited to try some of the recipes that they have on their website, including Moroccan Chicken and Snickerdoodle Sandwich cookies!

Land O Lakes just proves with this product, that not only are they great at making butter, they are great at making cinnamon sugar butter, too!

Hospitality for the Rest of Us: Long Distance

People are moving more and more. When I was a youngster, it was a rare instance for a friend to move away. Now it's me that moves away. We've moved a lot, especially when we first got married. It was something like five addresses and three states in the first four years of our marriage. We've slowed down a bit. In the midst of all that moving, we've made some friends along the way. I try to keep an open line in case of times of grief and celebration. One of the best tools I've found for keeping in touch with loved ones far away is Facebook. As much time as I could spend doing other things instead of checking it, it's the best thing I've found. It allows me to communicate with others, without having to call. I know calling is amazing, hearing people's voices, but for introverts, there are no body language clues for us to pick up on that help make our conversations easier. It's also why we prefer to video chat :-) Back to Facebook, some etiquette.

Stories from the Kitchen: Taste and See

I celebrated my birthday last weekend. It was wonderful and the leftovers left me with a question or two. Find out what they are and how I'm currently answering them in this week's podcast. Stories from the Kitchen Season 2, Episode 2: Taste and See Notes from the episode: Taste and See by Margaret Feinberg Dad’s New York Cheesecake (from the back of a Philidelphia Cream Cheese package) 1 ⅞ cups graham cracker crumbs ¼ to ½ cup butter, melted 1 cup sugar, divided 2 lbs cream cheese (4 packs) 2 large eggs (lightly beaten) 1 tsp vanilla 2 tbsp cornstarch 1 cup sour cream Preheat oven to 450F Mix well graham crackers, 2 tbsp sugar, and enough butter that the mixture holds together.

Threadbare Knees

I feel sure that you've heard the saying "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Well, recently I picked up a pair of wool cashmere blend slacks from Salvation Army and upon further inspection at home, the knees were threadbare, practically holes. Easy enough to miss, when your knees don't fall in the same spot as the previous owner. They were inexpensive, so it wasn't a big monetary loss, but I felt like it would be a shame to toss such nice fabric and so I searched the internet to see what I could do. I found this cute little purse pattern, for free! You can go check it out by clicking here . It is a great little pattern and I was able to make the entire purse in one rainy day! Here are some pictures of my threadbare knees purse. Don't you just love those little pleats? And there's even a little pocket inside. I'm so impressed with myself! Time to fill it up with my keys and such non-sense! And remember, when life gives you th
