The computer is so hard for me, but I am soooo proud that I made this little video of our remodeled bathroom. It actually was done a while back. It was a bigger project than expected. Had to remove several layers of flooring. We planned on a weekend project, and it lasted several weeks. My commode was actually in my LR for a couple weeks. And to top it all off my daughter invited a house full of people here for my Grandson's birthday party.so glad I had another bathroom. Oh, just more memories!

Butter Nut Snowballs

2 sticks (1 cup) butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups finely chopped nuts
powdered sugar

Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla until fluffy. Add flour and salt to creamed mixture blending throughly. Add nuts and mix well.

Shape into 1 inch balls and place on baking sheet
(If you use a piece of foil on the pans, clean up is a breeze)

Bake in slow oven 325 degrees about 20 min.

Do not brown, Cool, then roll in powdered sugar. ( I put the sugar in a zip lock back and shake them a little), this helps with clean up also.

Recipe says it makes 6 doz. but mine usually doesn't make that much.

YUMMY, ENJOY!!!!!

Good morning. We are waking up to snow, snow, snow in the beautiful shenandoah valley of Va. There appears to be at least 20 inches of snow already and supposed to snow all day today. I hurt my back shoveling the other day, so will have to depend on hubby to do it all. And my son Luke got into Miami yesterday from Haiti, no flights are flying in D.C. so I hope he just stays put in a motel. Probably will bake something today.
