Happiness Happens Month & Fudge

August is, "Happiness Happens Month". I personally think every month should be a month to celebrate what makes you happy, but apparently August is a time to be sure to do so. So . . . take time today to bring happiness to your life and the lives of those you love.

Consider making some fudge - what isn't there about fudge to make us happy!!! A simple recipe is as follows . . . 

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 can of sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
• 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Microwave on high for a minute or two until it melts, then stir until smooth. Add whatever extra ingredients you like. When my grandsons made this a couple weeks ago, my oldest grandson added dark chocolate mint pieces and mint bark - a delicious combination! My middle and youngest grandsons added brownie pieces and dark chocolate chunks (death by chocolate!)

Whatever you add, do so quickly, then spread in a buttered pan. Place in your refrigerator for a bit to set, then cut a small bite and enjoy! Share some with your neighbors or family - sure to make people happy!
