quick tip

This is for any of you who are planning on making those Samoas bars, after hearing about Bekah's somewhat failed attempt :)

-When melting both the chocolate and caramel, do NOT use the microwave on full power like the recipe says. Melt at 50% power! Stir after the first minute and then keep checking and stirring ever 30 seconds or so.
-When you toast the coconut, keep a close eye on it the last few minutes, it will go from brown to burnt really fast.

Oh, and the obligatory picture:

    Wow, Alta's hair is getting long - and the bangs are growing out nicely. So cute.

    I'm still a little upset about how they turned out...though, it's probably a good thing since I would end up eating them ALL! Sawyer is sitting on my lap saying "Alta"! He loves looking at her! :)

    Thanks for the tips and the recipes. I made them last night when I had some friends over (Marcus actually made the crust-impressive?). They were WAY good but they really did take a long time to make. And mine didn't look pretty.
