Recipe swap...I almost forgot!

I almost forgot today's recipe swap with Anissa! I love finding new recipes to try out! I like to think of myself as an aspiring chef. (This is only in my head of course, because I am very, very amateur!)

Today I'm going to post a FAVORITE cold dessert for summertime! I found this years ago at Allrecipes - love that place!

Freezer Caramel Drizzle Pie
INGREDIENTS:
2 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crusts
6 tablespoons butter
1 (7 ounce) package shredded coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (12 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping

DIRECTIONS:
Place butter in a medium skillet and melt over medium heat.
Add coconut and pecans, stirring to coat.
Saute until coconut and pecans are lightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whip together condensed milk and cream cheese until fluffy.
Fold in whipped topping.
Spoon 1/4 of cream cheese mixture into each graham cracker crust.
Drizzle each with 1/4 of caramel topping.
Repeat layers with remaining cream cheese mixture and caramel.
Top each pie with coconut and pecan mixture.
Freeze overnight.


You will not be disappointed in this recipe...it is divine! I promise!

Ohhhh now this sounds delish but so dangerous to my pants, meaning they won't fit the next day!

But I may just have to try it on a Sunday (isn't Sundays no calories count day?) :)

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t
