Crackers and Milk

Okay so I admit this really isn't a 'recipe' but it is one of my favorite snacks!

All you need is two ingredients

Crackers

Milk

Hard right

So you pour a glass of milk (any kind)

and then you dunk in your favorite cracker:)

You could do grahams

(my favorite)

any variety is great!

I prefer honey but the cinnamon make a great milk drink when the crackers are gone

OR you could crush up some of these saltines

and eat away- I like my crackers still to be crunchy but I know some who like them soggy

or you could duck a few of these babies

now I know these are probably considered more of a cookie than cracker but hey they are still delicious!

Sorry this is posted kinda late- my husband has the flu and so it has been fun keeping the kids away from 'daddy' so they don't get sick- it's so sad:(

What do you like to dunk in milk??

Hoo are You Tuesdays!!

Welcome to another week of Hoo are you Tuesdays!!

Here are this weeks questions!!

1. Where do you usually have your thermostat set at in the winter?

Actually it is set around 70- I would love 72-74 but those extra degrees but cost a lot of extra money!

This has been one bitter cold winter!
2. What room do you tend to put off cleaning until last?

My spare room! It is the catch-all for EVERYTHING! I hate how it all piles up and just put it of forever. When it gets clean I get soo happy!
3. Do you like to clean with music on or off?

Totally with music! I love to sing and dance around while I clean- I figure its my workout for the day:)
4. When do you take time to blog?

Mornings- first thing or right before I head off to bed
5. How much time do you spend looking at other blogs a week?

Oh, a LOT! I am trying to cut back but there are soo much cute stuff everyone makes!!

So what are your answers??

Brer Rabbit Molasses Cookies

2 cubes margarine

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup molasses

1/2 tsp. ginger

1/2 salt

2 tsp. baking soda

Melt margarine and let cool; add sugar, molasses and egg. Mix well.

Refrigerate till mixture is very stiff.

Roll 1 TBLS dough into balls and roll in sugar.

Bake on GREASED cookie sheet at 375° for 6-8 minutes.

You can bake them soft or crunchy- you preference!

* I I tried a dash of pumpkin pie spice once in place of the cinnamon and cloves and it worked great!
