Merry Christmas

The past month has been so busy. I started a little business, got all the things done that need to get done to have Christmas, was in a car accident (no one was hurt with the exception of our car), survived Christmas and got to celebrate Christmas with my favorite sister in the whole wide world for the first time in several years since she moved out of Kentucky. Okay so maybe she's my only sister but she's still pretty awesome.

I am also blogging to you today from a Chrome Book, I don't, even know if that's suppose to be one word or two, that my kiddos got me for Christmas. They said now I look like a real blogger and they also said they thought that I  might not even like my gift when they read on my blog that I didn't think I needed anything new to type on. That's about the time I burst into tears because my kids read my blog and they think of me as a real blogger. We will see how happy they are to have to help me figure out this thing in the days, weeks, months and years to come. I am a little slow.

Now that all the celebrations are over and the presents are unwrapped its time to move on to the coming year and reflect on the one that's almost over. I will talk about that on another day. Today I thought I would share a recipe to get me back into the swing of things.
There was this amazing French Bakery that we use to love to go to before they closed down that served chocolate filled croissants. They were delicious and expensive. Starbucks also has them. The boy and I decided that we could make them at home whenever want and save a little money.

First you need to buy some canned croissants. These will have to do until the boy and I decide we want to make them homemade. Unroll them all and place 8-10 chocolate chips in the center and roll them up into a croissant shape. Bake as the instructions on the container tells you. While they are baking take 1/4 cup of chips and a teaspoon of shortening and melt it on your microwave or on the stove top. Once croissants are done drizzle chocolate on top. Yummy and delicious!  The boy did these all by himself and whenever I don't have to cook something myself that makes it even taste better.
