Good Old Fashioned Pancakes
yup this is a keeper. Esp because it used ingredients I normally keep on hand. I accidently used 3 T sugar whoops- anyway I liked them and so did the 4 year old pancake afficianado. I do think it is tooo thick, I had to add about 1/3 c more milk

Peach Frozen Yogurt
Just ok. I followed the recipe except I added MORE fresh peaches and 1 pint of fresh rasberries. The flavor was not nearly as intense as I expected. Maybe I could have cooked down the fruit to get more water out? I didnt want sweet I wanted concentrated flavor, I might try again

Katie Lee's Spiced Nuts 'n Chex(R) Mix
WOW,I have never been the first reviewer before. Anyway this is good stuff. Not too spicy at all. Even the 4 yo ate it up, so I think next time I might add a touch more cayenne. I even used some wheat chex as 1 substitution as I had them already. You can never have too much fiber. I will def make it again.
