A Corrupted Media?

This is an interesting link regarding the real economic state of the country. And, as the article says, why are the related links verifiable ones to the general media and why aren't they reporting this instead of the reality of own downward economy picture of today? It used to be the media would protect the people against the government. These days, they seem to be in the employ of the government if the news we hear is so much different from the news that is happening.

Easy Creativity!

Everyone knows about the rice crispy treats but few people seem to think outside of that particular cereal box and try something different! Once I thought about it, lots of interesting ideas started coming to mind.

The basic recipe is:

Rice Crispy Treats
Approximately 6 cups of rice crispy cereal
1 package marshmallows
1/2 cup butter
2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Gently melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and melt them into the butter, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Once the marshmallows are melted, add the vanilla and then the cereal. Stir to combine and then press into a baking pan. I spray my hands with vegetable oil spray to make things less sticky. When cool, cut into squares.

Although this is my favorite recipe, a walk down the cereal aisle at the grocery store should provide you with some interesting ideas. There are chocolate rice cereals. The puffed wheat cereals would make an interesting version. I'd stay away from the flake cereals but the corn puff types would be good. Basically, go for the low sugar types and be creative! You can also drizzle some melted chocolate chips over the cooling treats. There are some peanut butter flavored cereals that would be fun to try. The cereals with the colorful, tiny marshmallows would make a pretty treat.

As someone said, "If it is here, it was there!"
