Welcome

Welcome
I wanted to have a place to share my family's favorite recipes with our long distance family. My kids are getting to the age where they are growing and going. Now they will have a place to go to to find the recipes that they have grown up on and want to make for themselves. I hope if you have run across this site that there might be a new favorite for your family. Some recipes may not have pictures, but I will try to add them over time.

Microwave Caramel Corn


1 c. brown sugar
1 stick butter
1/4 c. white corn syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
4 qt. popped corn

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a 2 quart microwave dish.  Bring to boil (stirring every minute), then boil for 2 minutes.  Remove from microwave and stir in baking soda and vanilla; stir until foamy. Put popped corn in a brown paper grocery bag.  Pour syrup over the pop corn; mix by shaking/rolling the bag.  Roll bag up and cook in microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.  Shake and cook again for another 1 1/2 minutes.  Pour unto cookie sheet and cool.  Break apart.  Store in seal-able container.
