Do you still have cream cheese that you got for FREE hangin' out in your fridge?  If so here's a great idea of what to do with it! - Audrey This danish recipe is a result from finding crescent rolls and a miscellaneous package of cream cheese in my fridge. I usually never make plain crescent rolls. I always have to make something cooler than that! So, I made a danish of sorts. It’s technically not a danish, but it looks like one and tastes pretty close, so it’s a fake out recipe! Did I mention it takes 10 minutes or less to make? With only 4 ingredients? Well, it does.   My kind of treat.  I have a bunch of ‘how to’ photos on my site ( www.laurenslatest.com ) so you can see what little effort this takes! Happy baking! Easy Cheese Danish yield: 8 servings Ingredients: 1 tube crescent rolls 1 8-oz. package cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ————— 1 cup powdered sugar 4+ tablespoons heavy cream splash vanilla extract Directions:

Remains of Mom's Fridge The Holiday Season is often the season of leftovers.  Not everyone is a fan, but if you're a tightwad then you LOVE leftovers.  There is plenty of information out there on what to do with leftover turkey, but what about the other stuff? Whenever I visit my mother she often cleans out her fridge, giving me random food items she knows will go bad if left with her. Last week I came home with the above treasures.  The chicken was leftover from a rotisserie and made two good sandwiches (frozen) for my husband's lunch, the shrimp had been in her freezer too long, but used in a sauce based dish I think I can hide the freezer burn flavor, and the carrots had about a week of life left, which went into my husband's sack lunch.    She also gave me a jar full of cooked carrots, potatoes, and squash, all blended together to make a thick soup base.  Truthfully, I just ate it straight and it was delicious!  I know some people might turn it into home made

I was able to review the book Adopted Ed through the One 2 One Network and I'm glad I did!  It is a very cute and touching book.  It also teaches about tolerance and how being different is to be celebrated.  I think everyone, whether your adopted or not, can relate to this book in some way.  We all have something that makes us special. :)  I know I do..lol This is also a great book that can lead to a valuable discussion with children.  Did you know that November is National Adoption Month??  This book is a great way to celebrate. :) .

Are you doing any internet shopping today?  If so, make sure to go through  Ebates or Shop At Home FIRST!  It's super easy, and it's nice to get a check in the mail. :) Both sites offer a $5 sign up credit and a % back depending on what online store you use.  They have about every store you can think of.  I use both and go with the one that has the highest % back for the particular store I'm shopping at.  Both pay out quarterly.  I've used them for a year now and I have had no problems with either one. To sign up at either or both all they need is your name, email, and address.  And they pay out quarterly when your account reaches $20.  If you don't reach it the amount carries over until you do. Here's how it works: After you sign up, search for the store you want Click Shop Now You'll then be redirected to the store you want Shop At Home or Ebates keeps track of the rest Easy way to get a rebate!  No receipts to keep or UPC's to mail in
