I’m Retiring…

February 7, 2011 By Michelle Barneck 2 Comments

No, no, no, not from blogging. I am retiring as one of the Sassies from SassyScoops. These women are amazing and I love them dearly as do I love Utah’s local businesses, but with two little boys I am hunkering down into mommyhood for a while.

But, retiring for me means opportunity for you! The Sassies are holding a contest for Utah’s Next Top Sassy!! Do you know how much I would love to have my replacement be one of my readers?! It could totally be YOU!

So head on over and get all the deets on how to prove you are up to being Sassy! I may even put in a good word for you. 🙂

February Visiting Teaching Message: A Restoration of All Things

February 3, 2011 By Michelle Barneck 6 Comments

February’s Visiting Teaching Message is “A Restoration of All Things.” It again focuses on the history of Relief Society and what we can learn from it.

I like that it reminds us of the purposes of Relief Society: to increase faith and personal righteousness, strengthen families and homes, and seek out and help those in need.

Feel free to print the Visiting Teaching message handout and use as you like.

I used Everyday Mom Ideas “The Dwelling Place” free digital scrapbooking kit.

Super Bowl Recipes

February 1, 2011 By Michelle Barneck 8 Comments

Some go for the game, not gonna lie, I go for the food (and the commercials of course, I was an Advertising major, what can I say?!). You can’t have a great Super Bowl party unless it is accompanies by great Super Bowl recipes! Here’s one of our favorites.

Not sure where it came from, it just showed up one year and has been a favorite ever since. Seriously, these are always the first to go. You have to make them ahead of time, otherwise you will not be able to keep up with people stealing them off the plate! Trust me, I am usually the one doing the stealing. I don’t even like peperoncini, but the cream cheese tames the spice and makes a great combo!

Supplies:

Italian Dry Salami
Peperoncini (I bought sliced so I would not have to do it)
Cream Cheese
Toothpicks

Lay out a salami slice. Add a scoop of cream cheese and a slice of peperoncini. Roll up and secure with a toothpick.

It is easy to adapt for kiddos, just leave out the peperoncini. My little guy ate like five while I was making the display for the pics.

Can you tell which team we are rooting for? Green and Yellow Toothpicks…

Yep, the Packers!

My team was pretty much chosen by birth since my maiden name is Packer.

BTW, did you like my footbowl? I won it from Frito Lay last year for this healthy football dip recipe. Another must have Super Bowl Recipe! It is basically the first few layers of 7 layer dip.
