TLC Lemon Dessert Mix

Here's what I came up with...perfect yummy goodness.  

Lemon Dessert Mix

1 package Lemon Dessert Mix (comes with 2)
1 8 ox light cream cheese
1 small jar marshmallow cream

In small bowl, soften cream cheese and marshmallow cream in microwave on defrost or low heat  until soft enough to mix together easily. Add Lemon Mix and stir until creamy.  Refrigerate until chilled about 2 hours.  Serve with Vanilla Wafers.  For the sweet/salty fans, serve with pretzel sticks.

Corn Bread Salad

Don't you just love recipe exchanges?  This one came from my friend Chris and I've made it a few times with rave reviews.  Especially awesome paired with the Trifle Bowl.  Perfect all year long but love it for a yummy summer salad.

Signs of Spring

Yep...that's a Longaberger Ex Large Mixing Bowl filled with Primroses. A sign that Spring is on it's way.

An all time favorite bowl...hairline crack in it so couldn't bare

to toss it.  I use it every year for flowers.  And yes, I do

have another for the kitchen.  ;-)
