Honey Balls

The Hubs grew up with a "candy" he calls honey balls...and I came across a recipe I thought might be it. He enjoys it and I find it quite tasty myself and I love that it is super easy to make....


1 c. creamy peanut butter
1 c. nonfat dry milk powder 
1 c. powdered sugar
1/2 c. honey


Blend together the peanut butter and honey...add in the dry milk powder and the sugar...mix until it forms a dough. 


I then pressed into an 8x8 dish and popped it into the fridge overnight.

Now the only problem is I find if I roll them into balls they lose shape if not kept refrigerated, so next time I am going to try and dip them into chocolate.

I have to say The Hubs and I dont make it out to the movies very much...in fact we dont take any free time for ourselves at all. I have decided this must change, life is too short right??


So we actually had a date night and went to the movies. We saw The Hunger Games. I wasnt sure what to expect as I seem to be among the few living under the rock where this book was never heard of and by the previews I saw I likened it to The Running Man from the 80s.
I heard reviews about not letting kids see it...although they play violent video games and watch adults killing people...not sure why they would now edit their kids watching this...but anyway yes it had a couple of brutal moments but I go to the movies to escape reality...I go for the entertainment knowing this isnt real life. So all in all The Hubs and I really enjoyed it

Now we move to the other end of movies...last night we saw The 3 Stooges. I was raised on the Stooges and quite enjoyed them...as for the movie, I have to be honest...I found it hilarious! I dont normally go for slapstick humor, so maybe I enjoyed it because I grew up watching them? I found it to be true to who they were and it was downright histerical on some parts. For sure not a movie for everyone, but we enjoyed it...and hey even if it wasnt a good movie, how can any night out and about with The Hubs be bad?
