chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	This is the grown up version of a kindergarden favorite. FIRE ANTS ON A LOG 5 or 6 ribs of celery 1/2 cup smooth or crunchy peanut butter 1 tsp. maple syrup 1/4 tsp. cayenne, or to taste 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries Trim the ends of celery and, using a vegetable peeler or sharp paring knife, remove a thin strip lenghtwise from along the curved back of each celery so it sits flat without wobbling. Set aside. Combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, and cayenne in a bowl. Stir to blend. Stuff the peanut butter mixture into the celery pieces, and gently press the cranberries into the peanut butter. To serve as a finger food, cut the celery into bite size pieces (about 1 inch long) and arrange on a platter... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

This is quite a new spin on it. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

Chatty, my aunt gave me this really easy recipe if you have kids visiting...forget that...anyone visiting. Cook one cup light Karo syrup with one cup sugar until lightly boiling. Remove from heat and stir in one cup creamy peanut butter Spray Pam on a 13x9 pan and pour in one regular size bag of Fritos. Pour peanut butter mixture over Fritos. It sounds weird but the salty and sweet make the best combo. I loved it and I'm not really a fan of peanut butter. _________________________ If it doesn't feel good, don't do it twice. www.eadv.net Boomer Queen of Shoes

I think it sounds good and never put the horse before the cart, meaning; always taste before not liking something! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/
