Tonight was my baby's Senior Prom.....hard to believe that it's time to close another chapter in life. Alex is the youngest of my 11 children, and I must say that there have been far more high points in life than I can count. I am blessed, humbled, thankful, and most of all reminded daily of the brevity of life. Enjoy this day, this very moment, for this is all we have that is really ours. If you haven't done so yet today, tell your kids you love them! *I don't always share my family photos publicly, so thank you for allowing me to do so on this special occasion.

NOTE: Thanks so much for your friendship! I appreciate this opportunity to share "more of me" by sharing this photo with you today. I hope each one of you enjoys a beautiful day today!!! Thanks so much for your visits, comments, and invites!

As a tribute to my Mother I created some cookies based upon her favorite chocolate ? M&Ms. She?s the type of mom who put up with my creative errors in the kitchen, from breaking eggs on the floor and not in a bowl and cooking pasta by adding it to cold water and then boiling. She put up with it all and never really complained; simply cleaned up my messes, smiled and helped me decipher some of her handwriting on old faded recipe cards.

So for the entire Moms, Moms to be, grandmothers and great grandmothers I thank you for your patience, dedication and loving guidance that you?ve given family members over the years. This recipe is a special thanks to my Mom for giving me the desire to excel and the love to work magic with food. Enjoy

Momma Kay?s M&M Crispies

?1 cup packed brown sugar
? cup granulated sugar
? cup butter
? cup butter flavored vegetable shortening
? cup crunchy peanut butter
?2 eggs
?1 tsps natural vanilla
?2 cups all-purpose flour
?1 cup Bisquick
?1 cups Honey Bunches of Oats (Or similar cereal)
?1 tsp baking soda
? tsp salt
?2 cups M&M?s (1/2 cup extra to eat as needed)

Heat Convection oven to 325? F (350? F Conventional). Use Teflon coated air bake pans, ungreased.

In a large mixing bowl combine sugars, butter, shortening, peanut butter, eggs and vanilla. Beat at medium speed until light and airy. Add flour, Bisquick, cereal, baking soda and salt. Beat at low speed until soft dough forms, Remove from mixer and stir in M&Ms.

Here's mom. This was one of the first shots I got to take with my 85mm... I like how it came out though. She'll probably make me take it down the second she sees it though.
