Welcoming Neighbours.

Since Dustin and I have moved in our new neighbourhood I have really been curious about my neighbors. I know the couple on the one side are Fhilipino and the guy's name is Joe because I have waved at him once my way home from work. I know they must have a kid because one day I saw their mini van open with a car seat.
A couple lives on the other side, and they are young like us, because Dustin has seen the guy outside barbequing and his wife/common law/girlfriend drives a coupe so they must not have any kids. (Thats just a guess...)
I thought food of some kind would be a great excuse to go over and meet them.
So, since I have so many blogs to inspire me to be more domestic- I settled on something that was easy, but tried and true. I remember my Mom making this when I was little:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
9 cups Crispix cereal (any flavor)
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar

Use a big bowl as it comes to alot of ingredients... kind of a huge mess.

Add the butter, peanut butter and chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowell and put it for one minute.


Stir in the vanilla and stir well before mixing in with the cereal.



Once the mixture is in with the cereal, sprinkle your icing sugar in bits, stirring as you pour in.



Hope this makes the neighbors happy...
