They are just the cutest little villains. They make being bad adorable. I was so excited about the release of the movie last weekend! Honestly, my excitement exceeded that of my 7 year old and I must say, I have no shame in that. I was so excited that I thought it would be a great idea to make some Minion Cakepops to celebrate :) And because they turned out so darn cute I wanted to share a step by step so that everyone else could share in my enthusiasm. <br />

For my Minions I chose yellow cake, but you can choose whatever flavor you like best. The first step is to follow my link to the <i><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://nuestrobuenprovecho.blogspot.com/2013/08/love-cake-pops.html" target="_blank">recipe for a basic cake pop</a></span></i>. Then shape each pop into a cylinder. Some can be short and fat others long and skinny. The fun thing about making these little guys is that they all come in different sizes and you can make them each with their own personality. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
After following the link and making the<a href="http://nuestrobuenprovecho.blogspot.com/2013/08/love-cake-pops.html" target="_blank"> <i>basic cakepop</i></a> and shaping them you need a few things to create them. You will need to melt 3 colors of chocolate wafers. Yellow, Blue and Black.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the bottom of the overalls I dipped about 1/3 of the cakeball into the blue chocolate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really should have painted my nails for this, but oh well....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next I gently pushed the stick into about the middle of the pop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIHGrIFpfkn6J6D941L7Hv6pio3HNaoaJolAlfSFFYn0XhMgU2s7hHvqFU16ReIwIHKQDbWup3TnUCNsEY7Leqw5tS21ScS2VqyhNR3VP-2G60M1uocqnz1zA87xoPNIJvWzD2rxqcdGA/s1600/IMG_6932.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIHGrIFpfkn6J6D941L7Hv6pio3HNaoaJolAlfSFFYn0XhMgU2s7hHvqFU16ReIwIHKQDbWup3TnUCNsEY7Leqw5tS21ScS2VqyhNR3VP-2G60M1uocqnz1zA87xoPNIJvWzD2rxqcdGA/s640/IMG_6932.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When the blue side hardened I carefully dipped the top of the pop in the yellow chocolate and rolled and rotated so that the yellow and blue meet and until there was no gap between the two colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After the chocolate hardens it will look like this. Hopefully yours will be more defined, my cakepops are never perfect. Yummy but never perfect. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I made the outline for the top of the overalls. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieV7yK8N6sJkd4ZKQbeR-hh2nTB24JlBKXeYblR0MdZCbSOZ_K-3YkDVMJZiOqZjg2qBnT-0YWR4fVMqpDFeJlBr4ejkdQ6tU4thBDJeg65en6wCPL8RkZTb1Tnhq4sAgL4W8MUOd6Tok/s1600/IMG_6938.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieV7yK8N6sJkd4ZKQbeR-hh2nTB24JlBKXeYblR0MdZCbSOZ_K-3YkDVMJZiOqZjg2qBnT-0YWR4fVMqpDFeJlBr4ejkdQ6tU4thBDJeg65en6wCPL8RkZTb1Tnhq4sAgL4W8MUOd6Tok/s640/IMG_6938.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then quickly filled it in and smoothed out the chocolate with the toothpick. As much as possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiikBtVtNo8pUn2P5aI02jVKe2_r2hTKZ9fam1pMNQvMZRVs2635vO5IMJVO8Bb5EZtxVy64HqWflFLO4X4bFozco3rAFul-bCY-MCjyIFDJ49-aDSuqGgShGf3kX5BmvK2YZYF8b8131k/s1600/IMG_6940.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="514" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiikBtVtNo8pUn2P5aI02jVKe2_r2hTKZ9fam1pMNQvMZRVs2635vO5IMJVO8Bb5EZtxVy64HqWflFLO4X4bFozco3rAFul-bCY-MCjyIFDJ49-aDSuqGgShGf3kX5BmvK2YZYF8b8131k/s640/IMG_6940.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the chocolate dried and hardened I did this to make it look smoother and it worked out pretty good. Remember, not perfect but yummy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To finish off the overalls with some straps, I filled a ziplock bag (the snack size, because that's what I had) with blue chocolate and snipped off a little corner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And with a very shaky hand I piped on the straps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I outlined the eyes with the silver luster dust. I followed the package instructions that said to mix equal amounts of lemon extract and dust. </div>

I'm so tired of mopping, dusting, folding, scrubbing, cooking, driving, teaching to drive, revising homework, essays, college applications......At the end of the day, that's all I can say. "I'm so tired." At times when the 4 kids and 1 husband leave at 6:55 a.m. every morning I sit on my old little brown couch that embraces my already tired body as I wonder, "how did I get here?" or "will I ever get a break?"<br />
<div>
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div>
Has anyone else been there? Or is it just me? I ask because sometimes from where I'm sitting on my little brown couch surrounded by the remnants of my family's early morning rush hour, I feel guilty for wishing I could be someone else at that moment. Wishing I could feel beautiful and fresh. Wishing I could be the envy of all pinners and Instagrammers as I share my sought-after "secrets of perfect motherhood". But that's not who I am. I'm a mess most of the time and most of the time, I'm tired. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Forgive me if I vent. But many times as I sit on my little brown couch that is exactly what I do. I vent. I vent not to my husband, not to my neighbor or my sister. I vent to my Friend, his name is Jesus. I tell Him how extremely tired I am. I tell Him that I have doubts about where I am in life. I tell Him that I feel unappreciated. I tell Him and He listens. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Many times I don't get an immediate, "Hey! Here's what you do...." answer. But He'll give me an answer in such a simple way.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On Tuesday, this is how he answered. Through my son, Nathan. He told me, through Nathan,<br />
"You are so appreciated!" He also told me, "You are doing exactly what you are meant to do at this exact moment!" He went on to say, "You are here not by accident but by my design and by the way, you are beautiful!" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was late on Tuesday about 10pm I was getting home, again, tired from the laundromat because our washer died on us 3 weeks ago. Nathan was up wanting to finish an essay that was due the next day. As I walk in he asks for help. Somewhat frustrated I tell him to go to bed and leave it there and I will "look" at it. I sit and begin to revise, remove and reconstruct his essay. At this time Ray, my husband decides to run to the store to get some groceries for the next day. When he returns I am just about to finish editing my sons essay and as I look up he presents me with the most beautiful yellow tulips I have ever seen in my life. </div>
<div>

<div>
Here they are.......</div>

As I said beautiful, right? Of course, I believed that they were from my loving husband who shares in my exhaustion. But no! Twist ending!!! They were from Nathan! My 13 year old 7th grader. Now if anyone out there knows Nathan you understand my enthusiasm. Out of all of my beautiful children Nathan is a little dry when it comes to sharing his emotions. I don't mean it in a bad way. I just mean, if this guys says, "I love you" it's because he means it. </div>

Nathan sent his dad a text message as he shopped. it read.....</div>

This stew is kid and hubby approved. When the aroma of this recipe begins to fill the house there are smiles of satisfaction everywhere. I don't cook beef often because I am a somewhat frugal grocery shopper but when the prices at my local market go down on the chuck roast I go for it! I love this stew because I add a lot of big chunks of carrots and potatoes that makes it hearty and oh so delicious. We like our stew with a big ol serving of Mexican rice and let me tell you, it is a crowd pleaser around here. </div>

<br />
The meat for this stew comes out really tender. The only downside is that you have to wait and cook it on low heat to get it to come out nice and tender. But we all know that good things come to those who wait, right.....<br />

Or sometimes we just like to turn down the temperature of the AC and enjoy something warm for breakfast :) So to begin moving into the Fall season I made this yummy Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal.<br />
<br />
My mother in law has oatmeal every morning. Seriously, religiously, every morning. She says it's good for her cholesterol. But she calls it "Mosh." So the foundation for this Pumpkin Spice version is from my mother in laws "Mosh." I'm just adding a touch of Fall.<br />
<br />
There is no other reason for the way I make this, other than i't's just the way she taught me and it works well for us, and the kids LOVE it!<br />

I think my prince charming could have it every week without complaint if I made it every week. He likes anything spicy. Although, to his disappointment, I can't make this dish as spicy as I would like because of my little Lydia. She can take a little spice but not as much as her daddy does. This little pasta dish could be a side but it's so darn delicious it's just fine all by itself.<br />

I'm so excited because my forte is in the kitchen I'm not very crafty. DIYs and crafts are not really my thing. But I was browsing through Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago just doing some wishful shopping, (just looking, no buying) and I saw this oh so cute wreath that was on display. To my dismay it was a whopping $160.00! Jaw drop! Of course there is no way in the world I could afford this on my budget, so I set out to make one myself for much cheaper.<br />

Here is the Hobby Lobby Wreath.....</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Nice Right?? But not $160.00 nice!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I understand after all the materials, and the time it takes to make it, of course it probably is worth about that much. But my door doesn't need such a big wreath and I thought I could make one that fit the size of my budget and the size of my door. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since it's fall Hobby Lobby has everything in their Fall section on sale for 40% off! Even those pretty red sunflowers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For my smaller scale wreath I bought the following items:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 16in orange wire frame with pipe cleaners attatched</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 15ft rolls of burlap</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 15ft roll of burlap chevron ribbon</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 red sunflower</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 letter "C" unfinished wood cutout</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spent about $29.00 for all materials.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everything was 40 % off except for the chevron ribbon, so I used a 40% off any regular priced item coupon for that. Also, the letter cutout was on sale for 30%. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to say that I saw a few YouTube videos for burlap wreaths and there were not many that used this wire frame. Many use the ones without the pipe cleaners. I ended up using a method that I kind of came up with on my own.<br />

<b>First</b>,I layered one strand of burlap over the other, so what you see here are two strands, not one.<br />
<b>Second</b>, what you see in the picture the strands folded into a loop and then fastened to the outer ring with the pipe cleaner. (pull the excess pipe cleaner to the back)<br />
<b>Third</b>, I pulled the left over burlap under the inner ring.<br />

Remember I said to layer the burlap in the beginning? Here's why, I pulled out the inside loop to make the wreath nice an full.<br />

It still needs some fluffing, and to be honest I had some left over burlap so I made extra loops by cutting them to size and attaching them by slipping them in between the wires. (no one will know, just us ;))<br />

After much fluffing and adjusting, I hot glued the flower and my letter....<br />
So, for not being so crafty, I think it came out pretty alright!<br />

I probably should have posted this sometime in the summer because it's a summery dish because of its fresh ingredients. But around our house we can have these anytime. My sister Sara requests fish tacos every year for her birthday, she absolutely loves them. We have lived in South Texas for about 10 years. Before this we lived in Southern California. So when we mention Fish Tacos to anyone around here we get this bewildered look like, "yuk! you don't put fish in a taco!" But let me tell you, YES! YOU DO! They are crispy, fresh and oh so amazing :) So without further discussion let me introduce you to our family's fish tacos.....<br />

For the salsa I put tomatoes, jalapeno, and some onion on a foil covered baking sheet in the broiler for about 5 minutes or until the tomatoes look a little wrinkled and outer skin looks nice and toasty. Don't put the cilantro I just added it afterwards to show what all goes in the blender. I also added a garlic in there but then later omitted it because my prince charming isn't fond of garlic in his salsa.<br />

Remove stems from tomatoes and then just dump everything in the blender. Add a little salt to taste and squeeze a little lime in there. And pulse two or three times.<br />

I hope that I'll be able to be a little more consistent this time around but, no promises :).....Well today I'm posting a recipe that is very special to me. It's special because I've always dreamt of making my own homemade tortillas. Some people dream about traveling or skydiving. Not me, I dream of homemade tortillas :) Anyone else out there understand where I'm coming from????<br />
<br />
Anyhow, it takes a little practice and I'm sure that there are some expert "tortilleras" out there but I'm a beginner. Although I must say that after several attempts my family was very happy with the end result. That's what really matters after all. If my fantastic 5 gives me the thumbs up, I'm happy.<br />
<br />
Well, this first picture is of my mom and her friend having a blast making tortillas. My mom is the one holding up the tortilla. Beautiful smile, right?? She was probably laughing at herself because she wasn't the best at tortilla making. She was however such a great partner in the kitchen. She was the one who would wash the dishes and big bowls that were in the way. She would slice, dice, peal, sauté....whatever needed to be done, she was the one you could always count on. If there was nothing for her to do she'd sit at the counter and tell stories about her apa (daddy), her ama (mom), her sister Eliboria or brothers, Tudy, Manuel and Fidel. Her stories were always funny and our laughter was one that filled the kitchen..... How I miss her. I think she would be proud of the tortillas I made for this post. <br />

The best part about making homemade tortillas is that you probably have all the ingredients you need sitting in your pantry. Well, maybe not the Shortening, unless you live in South Texas like me. We can't seem to live without it down here. We call it "Manteca," and for some reason it makes everything taste so good!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 teaspoon salt</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1/2 teaspoon baking powder</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1/3 cup shortening</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 cup hot water</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong>Directions:</strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 1</strong>: In a large bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 2</strong>: Add Shortening breaking it up with a fork or by hand, incorporate into the flour until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 3</strong>: Slowly begin to add hot water and start kneading the mixture </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 4</strong>: Continue adding water and kneading until the dough holds together</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*If the dough feels sticky, add a pinch or two of flour and continue to knead</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next, divide the large ball of dough into 10 small pieces. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Form them into discs, we call these "testales"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When all your discs are formed let them take a little 20 minute nap and cover them with a damp towel or plastic wrap. This part is very important. Do not skip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once your little guys are nice and rested take them out and prepare your work surface by spreading out a little flour. As you can see I overdid it a bit, but that's ok.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is so that your dough doesn't stick to the board as you roll it out. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Next we roll!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From the center, roll away then towards you.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
give your disc about half a turn and roll away from the center again and then towards yourself again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Repeat until your dough is thin and is rolled out to about 10 inches.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This takes some practice. They won't be perfect. They'll probably come out like a rectangle or oval or something in between. It's ok. remember, practice makes perfect, and even if it doesn't, it's still ok :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
I have been MIA for a little over a month....But no worries, I'm back. I've been so busy with school but I'm hoping to have more time from now on. I'm still pressed for time but I wanted to share one of my favorite cookie recipes. I know there's a lot of recipes out there for chocolate chip cookies but this is my absolute favorite. My good friend Diana shared it with me and I have to say that it was love at first bite. These cookies are thin and crispy and addictive! Due to my busyness I couldn't do my usual step by step but since I made these for my husband's boss on bosses day I wanted to share them with you. </div>

I knew that this would happen.....it's been over a week since my last post!! Not only did the kids start school but I started another semester of school as well. I told myself that busyness would not keep me from posting and sad to say it has. However, it will not keep me out of my kitchen. These days dinner has to be kept simple. I have to leave everything set up for Isabel or<em> Prince Charming</em> to just come home and warm a few things up. Well, one of my favorite go to meals for busy nights are these quick and easy tostadas. </div>

<div align="left" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
For the record....Isabel, my 16 year old is usually my photographer but since she was at school I took on this little photo session on my own. So, please excuse my amateur pictures. </div>

This weekend Ray, <em>my prince charming</em> and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. I wanted to make him something amazing, something that says, "Te Amo!" (I love you!) and "thank you for picking me and for being such an amazing husband!" Well, my good friend Lulu invited us for dinner a few weeks ago and made our taste buds do the happy dance with these amazing enchiladas. So, she was nice enough to share it with me and now I want to share it with you. These enchiladas are so easy and soooooo.....yummy, if you try them I guarantee they will be a hit. Even my picky eater Nathan asked for thirds! So thank you Lulu....you're the best :)</div>

Anyone who knows me, knows that I love making cake pops. When I make them I don't really eat more than one or two but I love the smiles I see when my kids, friends, or whoever bites into one of these little delicious wonders. This week I had the privilege of making a lot of these for some very special people and I hope they enjoyed them.</div>

It's hot outside and I really don't feel like turning on the stove or oven right now. As I thought about sharing something yummy and fresh this Italian Salad came to mind. This salad once again, is inspired by my friend Diana. She makes the exact same salad except she uses bow tie pasta. It is very easy to put together and it is very satisfying!</div>

These Southwestern Chicken Wraps were created by my dear friend Diana. She is always coming up with some good stuff. It doesn't take much time to prepare these wraps and you could add whatever you like to them. I just like the flavors that Diana put together and that's what I stick with.<br />

I first saw them in Ree Drummond's cookbook, <em>The Pioneer Woman Cooks</em>. These peppers are easy to make and so tasty. If you are looking for an easy crowd pleasing appetizer I highly recommend you give these a try. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First, you slice each jalapeño in half.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next, scoop the seeds out with a spoon. If you have food handling gloves it would be a good idea to put some on because your hands could burn for awhile after if you don't. Trust me, I know.</div>

It means so much to our family. My mom was not much of a baker but this was one treat that we would all look forward to when she would make it. Her employer and good friend gave it to her many years ago and she kept the little recipe card with her ever since. The funny thing is my mom never knew how to read so whenever she made it either me or my sister would have to read it to her. So from my kitchen to yours here is our family's treasured Banana Nut recipe. <br />

The Chicken Pomodori on Sourdough. It was so good that I came home and started flipping through my cookbooks to see what I could find. Well, Mrs. Ina Garten had a good looking Panini in her <em>barefoot contessa at home cookbook</em>, except a little different. I decided to make this my next culinary endeavor. Ina took a vegetarian approach but I thought I would add a little chicken and it was a hit!<br />

I learned how to make this casserole when I was about 17. Our youth group needed a dish to sell for a fundraiser and my best friend's dad recommended that we make Enchilada Casserole because it was easy and affordable. Well, me, my friend Elizabeth and her brother Roger got together made ourselves some awesome enchilada casseroles! I've been making it ever since then. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.<br />

<br />
I thicken up the sauce a little. So, first in a large hot pan add a little bit of oil. Then add <br />
1 tablespoon of flour. Then just stir it around for about 2 or 3 minutes and let the flour cook a little. When it turns a nice light brown you're ready to move on to the next step.<br />
<br />

Open up your can of enchilada sauce and slowly pour it in as you wisk it around a little. Your sauce will be very thick at this point. Continue to wisk the sauce taking out any little lumps of flour. Next, add your chicken stock until you get it to a workable consistency. Add about 1 Teaspoon of Knorr to your sauce. Your sauce should look like a thinned out gravy. But red.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Set the sauce aside. It might thicken up a little as it rests but you can continue to add chicken stock to thin it out.</div>

<br />
Line a large plate with paper towels. And place your tortillas on the plate dapping off any excess oil.<br />
For this demonstration I used a 8x8 baking dish. So For this pan you need to warm 12 tortillas. <br />
<br />
For a larger 9x12 dish you will need 18. <br />

They are simple to make and require just a few fresh ingredients. I can honestly say that I make them just about every week here at home. I'm sure many of you have your own versions of guacamole and pico so please feel free to leave me a comment to let me know how you make them. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my guacamole step by step......</div>

For an awesome tasting guacamole the star of the show the "Aguacate" (avocado) must be carefully picked. I usually do a good job at picking good ones, I make sure they are not too soft and not too hard. The skin should look dark green and should kind of bounce back when lightly squeezed. I cut 4 beautiful avocados in half. Aren't they beautiful?! </div>

I love making Cake pops, so for my first post I wanted to share step - by - step instructions on how to make a basic cake pop. It takes a little practice but once you get the hang of it you'll feel like a pro like the queen of cake pops Bakerella. I am a big fan and love all of her beautiful creations. The best part about making cake pops is watching someone you love bite into one of these little balls of chewy goodness and knowing that their taste buds are doing the happy dance. </div>

You need the following ingredients: your favorite flavor of cake mix, (I have a few chocolate lovers at my house) Frosting, lollipop sticks , a Styrofoam block and candy melts (these melts come in a variety of colors). I purchase my sticks and melts at Michael's and I never forget to print my online coupon before heading out. Other ingredients that you might need are: vegetable oil and sprinkles for decorating. </div>

You can use any cake pan, these are the only ones I have that don't stick so that's why I always make round cakes. Don't forget to spray them with a little baking spray. Then just pop 'em in the oven.</div>

When your cakes are done I know you want to rush into making your cake pops but wait until they are completely cool. If you break up your cake when it's right out of the oven you'll burn yourself....trust me, I know.</div>

You can get about 40 little cake pops from one batch if you make them this size. <br />

When you melt the chocolate melts watch them very carefully......if you burn the chocolate it will leave a very bad burnt smell in your kitchen that will linger for a very long time. Again, trust me, I know.<br />

Stir the chocolate. If it looks a little lumpy and thick that's ok. Just keep on stirring it. It will continue to melt as you stir.</div>

The chocolate might be a little too thick for dipping, so you can add 1/2 a tsp. of vegetable oil to thin it out. If it's still too thick add a little more. I had to do this about 3 times for the pink chocolate.<br />

When I started making cake pops I had a lot of problems with the pop falling off of the stick when I dipped it. So doing this little step helped. Dip the end of your lollipop stick into the chocolate and then stick it in the rolled cake ball.<br />

The chocolate will help the ball and the stick to become one......as they were meant to be. Sometimes they have trouble understanding this.<br />

The way I do this is I push all my chocolate to one side of the bowl and then I roll the cake pop rather quickly, making sure the chocolate coats all the sides of the pop. I don't dip the whole pop because I usually loose the ball this way. But a quick rotating motion works well for me.</div>

If your going to add sprinkles, now is the time. But if you want to swirl with extra chocolate it's best to wait until the chocolate on the cake pop has hardened. Once you have them all decorated, stick them on your Styrofoam block and let the chocolate harden. I usually put them block and all in the freezer for a little bit (about 5 minutes) because I can't wait. </div>
