It was sooo good to have the day off.  Actually, I don't work until Monday.  Yippee!!  My husband is travelling, again, so I'm home all by myself.  Today, I goofed off and went to some antique stores in Madison. I didn't find a whole lot, but it's all about the hunt.  Alyssa's all-time favorite movie is Lady and the Tramp.  Well, today, I found two different books about their pup, Scamp.  I didn't think she had them, but to be sure, I Snapchatted her in Germany.  She didn't have them so I snagged them and made her day.  Anything vintage Lady and the Tramp are hard to find, so I was excited too.  They will be on her desk for when she comes home.

Ranch Oyster Crackers have been around my family for as long as I can remember.  Typically, we had them arouond Christmas time.  My family now likes them too.  It's an easy recipe to jazz up some rather plain crackers.  BEWARE:  They can be addicting.  Better not keep the container out too long or they will be gone.

Ranch Oyster Crackers

3/4 cup oil

11 oz Oyster Crackers

1 oz Hidden Valley Original Ranch Dressing (one package)

1/3 cup Parmesan cheese

Mix the oil, Oyster Crackers, ranch dressing, and parmesan cheese.  Add the crackers and toss until they are coated.  Lay on cookie sheet to let dry, stir occassionally.  Store in air-tight container for several weeks.

Easy right?  These are the perfect snack to have around if you have company.  Make ahead,  put in a nice bowl and set on the table.  Done.  They are loved by children and adults of all ages.  That's the best kind of snack.

Well, I wish this could be longer, but my computer really, really needs to be charged.  

Until next time...Stampin' Always,
