Reviewed Real Peppermint Patty Hot Chocolate
"My 10-year-old daughter LOVES the peppermint hot chocolate from The Egg & I and we;re on a quest to find a good substitute at home (she;s a hot cocoa snob, I;m afraid). I wanted to find one that she could do most of the work herself. I was her helper, but she was able to do everything except for the pouring into the cup all by hersel..."

Shared Recipe All Natural Red Velvet Cupcakes
"Like red velvet, but not all the dye? Kid with Red 40 sensitivity? This is the recipe for you. Found online. Not quite as red (sometimes it looks a little dark purplish, but it's really close. It doesn't taste beety at all - stays very moist and my son loves that he can have "red velvet" again!"

My name is Candy, married in 1993 to Tom. We have two kids (ages 12 and 10) and live in Austin, TX. Most of the cooking is done by Tom these days and he loves to play around and experiment with food. I own a bookkeeping business from a home office and Tom is a teacher so we stay busy and are always on the look out for something fun, fast and healthy.
View my "all about me" website for links and other information about us - HERE.
We both absolutely love to read! We both own Kindles but still swap a lot of books at PaperBackSwap and easily read around 200 books per year between the two of us. Our kids are turning into little bookworms too :)
Tom is a steak and potatoes kind of guy (born and raised here in Texas)... Candy loves vegetables and could easily be a vegetarian... we usually stick to chicken and fish, which seems to be a good "meet in the middle" type of thing. Candy has lost over 200 pounds since she had a vertical sleeve weight lossy surgery in mid-2011, so our eating has changed a LOT to be much more healthier. Our daughter loves meat, chicken, hamburger, roast, whatever... our son is a noodle freak. :-)
