Nancy’s Appetizers (GIVEAWAY)

December 4th, 2009

We tried something new as part of our Thanksgiving appetizers this year and they were a HUGE hit…even with the kids. As part of our menu we added Nancy’s Deli spirals as something to snack on before the main meal was served and this is what happened:

I followed the easy directions…all I had to do was thaw them out. Yeah, seriously, it was that easy! I then arranged them on a tray with pickles for all to enjoy.And within 10 minutes…

…they were GONE! I mean seriously, I got ONE. They were that good. These will definitely be on the table for Christmas and all other get-togethers that we have.

I will just have SEVERAL more boxes to refill the tray…and hopefully they will last a little longer.

Are You At The Bottom of Your List?

August 16th, 2009

Women across the country are changing their habits to meet the demands of increasingly busy schedules and tightened wallets by setting aside life’s simple pleasures and putting themselves at the bottom of the to-do list. I know I am at the bottom of my list. Since I became a Mom, that is where I have been. I think all Mom’s feel that way because we strive so hard to make sure our families and homes are taken care of and we just take whatever is left over.  In fact, a new survey commissioned by the makers of Edwards® frozen desserts finds more than nine in 10 American women have cut back on indulgences during the past year*. While avoiding extravagant luxuries may seem like a necessity these days, finding convenient and affordable ways to reward yourself daily can help bring a little sweet serenity back into your life.

Unwinding from the day’s pressures can be as simple as saving a few minutes for yourself. And treating yourself to something small, like a delicious dessert, is still important despite these tough times.

The makers of Edwards® frozen desserts recently launched Edwards® Singles Á La Modes, located in the frozen pie section of your grocers’ freezers. Baked hot from the microwave in under one minute with no mixing, even the busiest of dessert lovers can enjoy a Hot Turtle Brownie, Hot Fudge Brownie or Hot Apple Crisp topped with cold, creamy ice cream as a sweet way to unwind and reward themselves.
