Mome reads Mommy, My daughter's way to spell it when she was younger... It stuck. My son calls me Mome... just like it looks. I now sign all my notes to them "Love, Mome". It's our inside secret and makes them smile. I always want them to smile.

July 4th Strawberries



I saw these on Facebook yesterday and just HAD to make them.  Thank You DealiciousMom for this simple recipe.  I modified it a little so I'll give you the recipe we used.  These are so easy.  I melted the chocolate and the 5 year old did the rest.

You will need:
Strawberries
White Chocolate (we used the candiquik)
1/2 C sugar
blue food coloring

Was and thoroughly dry strawberries.  Keep on stems for a handle to dip.
Melt chocolate in a double boiler or microwave (make sure to stir every 30 seconds if using microwave)
Mix together sugar and 4 drops of food coloring either in a baggie or bowl with lid.  Shake well until all clumps are gone.

Once chocolate is completely melted and creamy, let cool for two minutes.  Dip strawberries 2/3 of the way in chocolate, let excess drip off. Dip tip in blue sugar.  Put in fridge to set. 

Took less time to make them than to type this post.

Enjoy!
