Miraculous night…The 44th annual CMA’s blew me away.  And absolutely loved Taylor Swift with ‘Back to December’.  She was stunning and gave me goosebumps!!  If you missed it, you’ve gotta see it….just click the photo!!

Some of these are scary and some are just darn adorable!  Hope you have fun making AND eating these treats….

Ghostly Goodies

• 8 large marshmallows
• 6 wooden skewers (points cut off)
• 1 cup white-chocolate chips
• 1 Tbs vegetable shortening
• 12 cinnamon Red Hots
• Black decorating gel

1. For each ghost, push three marshmallows onto end of skewer; set aside.

2. Microwave white-chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe dish on medium-high for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave in 10-second intervals until smooth.

3. Holding the skewer, spoon the melted mixture over marshmallows until covered; place on wax-paper-lined cookie sheet. Use two Red Hots for eyes and decorating gel for a mouth.

4. Refrigerate until chocolate has hardened; serve.

Spooky Veggies ‘N Dip Recipe

1. Put a dip of your choice in a small bowl and set in the center of a serving platter. Spread some dip onto carrot tips to form fingernails; set on platter.

2. Heap green beans next to carrots. Dot ends of beans with ketchup to create snake eyes.

3. Slice cherry tomatoes in half and place on platter, flat side up; top with an olive slice and a pea to create eyes.

Slime-Ade

• 2 cups white grape juice
• 2 cups apple juice
• 12 to 15 drops neon-green food coloring
• 4 to 7 drops neon-blue food coloring
• 2 cups seltzer
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 6 to 12 gummy worms, optional

1. In a pitcher, mix grape and apple juices. Add 10 to 12 drops neon-green food coloring, plus 3 to 5 drops neon-blue. Stir. Add seltzer; set aside.

2. For “slime,” pour corn syrup into a small bowl (wide enough for the rim of a glass). Stir in 2 to 3 drops neon-green food coloring, and 1 to 2 drops neon-blue.

3. Dip the rims of 6 glasses into syrup. Turn glasses upright. (Note: You can do this ahead of time; just be sure to store “slimed” glasses in a cool, dry place.)

4. Fill each glass with juice/seltzer mixture. Garnish with gummy worms if you like  – they’ll stick to the slime.

I think about this quote from my husband Garth Brooks quite often.  Sometimes we know in our hearts what it is we want out of life even if our head tells us otherwise.  Sometimes we pray for things, or put things out into the universe that we think we want…or don’t want…and what we attract into our lives isn’t perhaps what we wished for or expected.  But as this song says, sometimes the greatest gifts in our lives are the gifts that come to us regardless of what we wish for.  Can you think of an example from your own life that you’d like to share?  Send me an email or leave a reply!  Maybe I’ll share your story on air!  sandy@kix106online.com

Sandy Jamieson, Sunday nights from 8-11pm

I grew up with Sex and the City.  It became a part of my life while I was living in South Korea, miles and oceans apart from my family for the first time, at 25.  These quotes remind me to follow my heart….and I hope that they inspire you in some way too…

Carrie:

“I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.”

Carrie:

“Maybe mistakes are what make our fate… without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn’t fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go. But it’s comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart… and if you’re very lucky, a plane ride away.”

Carrie:
“Some people are settling down, some people are settling and
some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies.”

Okay, so I’ve never been fishing in the dark.  But I do love to go fishing.  That may surprise some of you…I know I look all fancy and high maintenance, but I assure you I’m not….lol. When I was a kid my favourite part of fishing was always putting the worm on the hook.  And you can’t beat the adrenaline rush of reeling in a catch.  And then I’m done.  My Dad would always take care of the rest.  Thanks Dad.

I’ve always been a bit of a tomboy, collecting grasshoppers and stuffing them into my pockets…bringing home a baby buggy full of crickets…and filling my tackle box with frogs and letting them go in my basement sink.  Can you relate to that?  Or was I a very strange kid?  Now I squirm at the thought of that childhood memory…but I also smile.  Those were the days when life was so simple.

The entertainment world was abuzz over the Saturday nuptials of Grammy-winning country singer Carrie Underwood and Ottawa Senators hockey player Mike Fisher.  Across the ocean, Underwood and Fisher said their “I dos” in front of 400 guests at the Reynolds Plantation resort in Greensboro, Ga.
“We could not feel more blessed to have found each other and to have shared this day with our friends and family that mean so much to us!” the newlyweds told People magazine in a statement.  (Details courtesy of CBC News).

This is your oppurtunity to do your part to help conserve energy.  Earth Hour occurs at 8:30pm….all you have to do is have fun with the lights off….it’s that easy!  Maybe you’ll get romantic and dine by candlelight…get out for some exercise with a nice walk, or turn to a non-gadget form of entertainment like cards, or even hide-and-seek by flashlight!  Whatever you get up to, I hope you have fun!
