A LITTLE ABOUT ME ---

Quick, easy, and cheap! Those are the things I like best! A mother of three, grandmother of two and living on a budget for one. My philosophy? If it has more than two or three ingredients -- forget it! If I have to spend hours searching in specialty stores -- forget it! I have had Christmas trees decorated with nothing but pipe cleaners, construction paper, glitter and flour ornaments and they were beautiful! I have planned and completely orchestrated a wedding in less than three weeks including finding the venue, dresses, tuxes, making flowers, decorations, invitations, food, drinks, minister, pictures and music! All under $2,500.00 and it was BEAUTIFUL! I have lived my entire life on a budget but never more than now -- so while it feels good to splurge every once in awhile, most of us can't do that very often in today's economy. So if you're looking for glitz, glamour and extravagance -- this blog is not for you. On the other hand, if you enjoy being frugal, love a challenge, and love to see the balance in that savings account rise, you are in the right place. Not ALL of the things you will find here are made with just a few ingredients. The Lye Soap recipe is definitely nothing a beginning DIY'R might want to try. I myself have yet to brave this one but it IS in my very near future as I have been buying and using it for years. Hopefully you will take something with you after viewing this blog be it a DIY project or a recipe, so long as it makes your day easier and your pockets heavier. I love to share things and hopefully you feel free to share anything you see here. But remember I would like just a little credit so please link back, hit like, comment, and/or share, share, share away. I have only just begun so yes, my blog is light on content but I am adding to it as I get time so please come back and visit!

Foolproof Peanut Butter Fudge

Foolproof Peanut Butter Fudge

Instructions
  1. Line a 9 x 9 inch dish with foil and set aside.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, add Vanilla Frosting and Peanut Butter, do not stir. Microwave 1 minute. Stir until until combined and smooth. Pour into pan and spread until even. Refrigerate until firm.
  3. Remove fudge from the pan using foil and cut into squares.

  1. I have read on other blogs some people seem to think the EASY PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE recipe is maybe a little too sweet. If you agree with that or prefer a creamier fudge try this Foolproof Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe. It is not as sweet, VERY creamy and I think it's easier! I made this while our 20 minute dinner was in the oven and by the time dinner was over the fudge was set and ready for our desert. It is SO simple and if you really love peanut butter this recipe makes that nutty goodness pop! ENJOY!

    1. Tried the chocolate frosting and I didn't care for it. It tasted too much like no bake cookies. I'll stick with Cream Cheese frosting instead.
