First, Technology amazes me in so many ways! I don't know what I would do with out my ipod, Bluetooth, computer, and my nikon SLR camera!! They are my life and beyond words why I love those items so much. Well, these are the COOLEST beyond coolest sites www. bloggled.com and www. mozy.com
First site CAN SAVE your blog and make your very own blog into a book. Can you believe it?
I was so excited I was jumping up and down with glee because some genius created this site for all the non techies out there.
Second site is a place where you have an external harddrive online. I think I hear angels singing behind me or is that my work phone going off like crazy. Either way! It is the best invention since the OVEN!
Kudos to the smart people behind the TECHIE world.
Second, I just rel-earned(this that a word) that you can BOOKMARK your favorite websites and photos you find "googling or binging" in cyber space. Oh my holy moly, Batman! So, I was creating documents in my YAHOO cloud so if God forbid I get a brain freeze or lose my memory I would have access to my favorites.
You learn or RE LEARN something everyday!

I was craving my Christmas William Sonoma Peppermint Bark when A rat no... A rugrat named Erik A.K.A. hubby has eaten every last bite of my candy. I was so bummed and utterly crushed I went to my handy dandy computer and started researching how to make it. I came across these delish- treats.

- Play with my SLR camera

peppermint fudge
PEPPERMINT FUDGE
[ fudge layer ]
3 tsp. butter, softened (yes tsp. ... not Tbsp.)
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
4 c. powdered sugar
6 Tbsp. baking cocoa
1 tsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
[ peppermint layer ]
2 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. milk
1/2 tsp. peppermint extract
1/4 c. crushed peppermint candy (about 10-12 candies)
Line the bottom and sides of a square baking dish with foil. Grease foil with butter; set aside. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese. Gradually beat in powdered sugar, cocoa, milk and vanilla. Spread into prepared pan. Chill for an hour until firm. For peppermint layer, beat cream cheese in a small mixing bowl. Gradually beat in powdered sugar, milk and extract. Stir in peppermint candy. Spread evenly over chocolate layer. Chill for an hour or until firm. Using foil, lift fudge from pan. Gently peel off foil and cut into squares.
Notes: A double batch fits well in a 9� x 13� pan and makes about 7-8 dozen little squares of fudge. Also, to crush the peppermint candies, I place them in a thick zip lock bag and use a rubber mallet (soft hammer). This is where my kids like to help!
Added comment: I recommend storing your fudge in the refrigerator. Chilled is always yummy! It's probably fine at room temperature.
