DIRT

You can't have a fun Spring meal without some DIRT!

I was making this dessert for our Monday night Bible study. I served it in these plastic cups so everyone could have an individual serving.

I started by laying the cups out in rows. To make the pudding follow the directions on the Jello-chocolate pudding box.
Once the pudding is set, mix it with Cool Whip.
There are no exact measurements. I just continued adding Cool Whip until it tasted like I wanted.

For these 25 cups I used 2 large boxes of Jello-pudding, 1 small box of Jello-pudding, and about 1 1/2 containers of Cool Whip.


You have to make sure your husband (or child) does not eat all the gummy worms before you use them.
So, put them in cups before the worms are all gone.
Fill a bag with Oreos. It took a whole box of these to fill the 25 cups.
Crush the cookies to the consistency you desire.
Top the cups with the crushed Oreos.
And, you have DIRT!
Dig in.

The Pool is Open and Ready for Swimmers

The reason for my lack of blogging is because every sunny minute I get, I've been here.
Laying out.
Reading and listening to the radio.
Enjoying warm weather.
And yes momma and daddy, I've been wearing sun screen.
First swim of the summer!

Nick has worked so hard to open our pool this year. It took a week to fix the leak, fill the pool, balance the chlorine, and get rid of the algae problem. However, it is now good for swimming! We have already been swimming a few times this past weekend, and the water feels great!

Hope you have been able to enjoy the nice spring weather. Next time the sun comes out, stop by for a dip in the pool!
