Living in my house is like living in a casino. You never have any idea what time it actually is and we want to keep you here as long as we can. 🙂 We have approximately 6 clocks hanging on the walls in our house and every single one is set to a different time.
I know that the one in the kitchen is 15 minutes fast, the one in the kids room is about 5 minutes fast, and the one in the bathroom is never working. I blame it on the humidity because new batteries only last a few weeks in any clock we put in there.

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
40 miniature chocolate covered peanut butter cups, unwrapped
