Our Husbands are good sports!!

So this past weekend Betho & Cody came and we had SO much fun. It was so fun to have them here every night and morning and get to spend lots of time with them! We did a lot of fun stuff but mainly just hung around and watched movies. Betho & I drove to Abilene on Saturday & hung out with the Curry/Goforth group & even got to see cute little prego Lindsey! She is still so cute and fit looking! I hope I can look like her when I am pregnant!

So here is the story behind the title of this post. I became somewhat obsessed with the FOOD Network this summer and love that show where you get 1 secret ingredient and have to cook with it. We went to dinner with some friends Friday and had planned to go out afterwords. Well, they were really tired and wanted to go home so we were really bored and decided to do our own "Food Challenge". Well when I say "we" I mean Betho & I decided and told the guys the plan. Anyway, our secret ingredient was marshmallows and marshmallow cream. The rules were that you HAD to use those two things and then could use whatever else you could find in the kitchen!

Here is how it turned out!


This is the guys little creation. It is the beach with a sea wall and everything. I have no idea what exactly is "in" this and I was afraid to ask! I think the toothpicks with the little marshmallows are sails & the green blob is a fish! Creative huh?! Such good sports!

This is Me & Betho's creation. we named it "Mellow Mountain". If you can't already tell by this amazing work of art, it is a mountain! The grass is buttermilk, green food coloring and hot chocolate mix, the flowers are from outside, and the trail head (bottom left) if dark chocolate sticks. And I'm sure this will be a shock to everyone but it tasted a little....how do I put it.....DISGUSTING! But isn't it pretty! :)
As wierd of an activity as this was it was really fun! Oh to act like a 5 year old again and play with food!
