Guess that recipe...

Hey this could be a new game show!! Hehe.. NO CHEATING and scrolling to the end!! How long does it take you to figure out what Alissa made yesterday ;) Here goes... we'll start with the ingredients..

First we add 1 cup of flour..
Then add 1/2 cup of salt..
Next comes 2 teaspoons cream of tartar..
The oh so fun addition of food coloring into 1 cup of water.
Pour the water with food coloring into the mix...Stir all ingredients together.. You should have guessed it by now ;) Add 1 tablespoon oil, I should say vegetable oil would work just great but we ran out so good old olive oil does the trick. :) Now you stir continuously over medium heat until...
A nice blue (or whatever color you might have chosen) ball forms in the pan.
Take it out and knead it a few times and we have.. you guessed it!! Home made PLAY DOH! :)
Store in an air tight plastic container for lots and lots of fun. By the way.. if this stuff gets on your carpet it is no fun at all. I still have pink spots here and there from our last batch. Oh well, I hate me carpet anyway -- pergo here we come!! :) :)

Last night was also "Movie Night" at our house. About once a month everyone (including the cat, excluding the big stinky dog) climbs into bed in our room, eats popcorn, watches a movie and we have a sleep over. Here is a quick shot of the kids ready for the movie!! :)

Alissa really looks forward to her movie night!! Fun times.

HA!! I got that by the 2nd one...what else would you add half a cup of salt to?! Awesome. I love your movie night. It sounds so great, but Drew wouldn't do so well with the sleep over. He has never slept well in our bed. One less thing to break him of later I guess =)
