Firework Treat: Chocolate Covered Marshmallows with Pop Rocks

Image
By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
One other item that my daughter and I made for her Lemonade stand was these amazing Chocolate Covered Marshmallows with Pop Rocks and to make it better they were the jumbo size Marshmallows!  :)  :)  They sold really well too!! :)  AWESOME!!  :) 


Here is what you need:
Skewers
Marshmallows- we used jumbo size
Chocolate chips
Pop Rocks
Sprinkles


Here is what we did:
On low heat we melted the chocolate- make sure you stir the entire time so you do not burn it!  
While I did the chocolate on the stove my daughter put the skewers through each marshmallow.  (Make sure you go through the middle to make it stable and less likely to slip off) 
Then I covered the marshmallows in chocolate and she helped put the pop rocks or sprinkles on each.  Then we laid them on wax paper to dry.  It was hot and humid the day we made these so we ended up putting them in the freezer.  


I was curious if the pop rocks would still pop after being in chocolate and the freezer and I am very pleased to let you all know they DID!!!!!!  YEP!!!!!!!  


So now my mind is wondering what else I can add pop rocks too??  Cookies??  Cupcakes??  :) :) :)

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
