Ina Garten's Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars...

The perfect treat! This recipe is wonderful. This is the second time I've made them. They remind you of a pb&j sandwich/peanut butter cookie... I will be bringing them to coffee hour at our church tomorrow which they are perfect for. I'm beginning to test out recipes that I think will sell well at the Danby Fun Day. For those of you reading this and are local you should definitely come out to the Fun Day on July 10th here in Danby, NY.

These bars would be great for bringing on a picnic. The next time I make them I'll have to put more of the batter on the bottom and use a bit more jam in the middle. But it was a great way to use up some things in the pantry. As I continue on with the blog it actually is nothing like Julie Powell's blog like I had intended in the beginning. But that is actually a good thing. I found the blog site that Julie had her blog on and I found someone doing the exact same project Julie did. Number one it's just too expensive to do and number two nobody's blog can top hers. She is a true inspiration for present and future bloggers. I like having my own take on food and sharing it with those who do read my blog. :)

I have always been fascinated with Chefs on the Food Network who have become Superstars from cooking. They were at the right place at the right time and had the personality to fit. Someday I hope I'll be at the right place at the right time and I'll find a career that I love doing. Prayerfully it will be my own Bed and Breakfast. It's still possible! Til than I'll keep cooking and baking. Hopefully Lauren's Simple Pleasures will be a hit around Ithaca. Anything can happen! :)

Til next time
Happy Cooking!
Lauren
