Super Saturday Sign-ups...

Alright ladies, it's that time of year again! Here's what we are doing for Super Saturday...

Crafts will be done from 9:00-11:00. Which means nobody can show up at 12:30 and expect to do their projects and eat lunch (sorry ladies). Please get there on time. We have an awesome speaker coming and she is full of information you will want to hear. If you don't have time to finish all your projects you are more than welcome to take them home to finish. We will be happy to give you the instructions so you can finish them later.

Speaking of projects, here's what's on our agenda...

prices will be posted soon, and pictures will be posted as soon as blogger will comply.

(tile- questions ask michelle wright or sharon bell)

(advent calendar- questions ask haley murdoch or sandy barney)

(bath salts- ask julie crump)

(humanitarian- purses)

11-12:00 we will be hearing Shandra from "My Food Storage Deals". I have not personally heard her talk, but I know many who have and absolutely LOVE her!!! She is the wonder woman of food storage. And she does it all on a budget taking it one week at a time. She is a fountain of knowledge and ideas. You won't want to miss her!

Lunch will be served from 12-1:00. Sign ups for food will be coming around on Sundays (starting today). There will be a nursery provided from 9-1:00 for those that will be needing it. And as soon as blogger starts working for me again (hopefully by tonight) you will be able to sign up for the food and projects right here on the blog.

Magic Mix

Magic Mix

The basic instructions for Magic Mix are as follows:

2-1/3 C. Powdered Milk (not instant-if you do use instant, double the amount)

1 C. All Purpose Flour (Yes, use All Purpose)

1 C. (2 sticks) Margarine (***HAS TO BE REAL MARGARINE, NOT SPREAD***) or Butter, at room temperature

Combine dry milk, flour and margarine/butter into a large bowl and refrigerate.
Mix butter with dry milk and flour in Kitchen-aid, or good mixer with whisk attachment.

Now you're ready to make your delicious fudgesicle. The next time you hear the ice cream man's tune playing in your neighborhood have your kids make these. They are super easy, delicious, and also great portion control...if you can stop at just one :)

fudgesicle:

Make the Magic Mix Pudding recipe as follows:

1/2 C. Sugar

1 C. Magic Mix

2-3 T. Cocoa (optional)

2 C. Water

1 t. Vanilla

Combine Magic Mix, sugar and cocoa in saucepan and mix well. Add water, stir over medium heat until pudding bubbles. Add vanilla and beat. (*note* you won't refrigerate this like you would if you were making the pudding, just go straight to the next step after adding the vanilla)

Add 1/2 C. milk (1-1/2 T. Powdered Milk + 1/2 C. Water) to pudding and stir.Pour into ice cube trays with toothpicks or little dixie cups with spoons. The best way to get the toothpicks to stay put while you're freezing is to cover the ice cube trays with aluminum foil and then stick the toothpicks in.

Cream of Chicken Condensed Soup:

1 C. Magic Mix

3/4 C. Chicken Broth (either from a can, bouillon, or liquid from canned chicken)

1 t. Dry Parsley

Dash of Onion Salt

Mix together with wire whisk over medium heat, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
