A girly playdate


My daughter LOVES entertaining. As the school bell rings I am continually met with a little lady and friend in tow "Can she come to our house?" "Whose coming over today?" "Who can we ask over today?" Some days I find this exhausting, but mostly I too love having people around and enjoy her enthusiasm.

Well, wasn't she in heaven the other day when not one, but two girlfriends came to play. They were so sweet together, even including little bro in the girly fun.

Usually on arrival home, my two are straight to the kitchen searching out an afternoon snack. This afternoon was no exception, just doubled by extra hungry bellies.
One of the treats I had waiting was a take on the LCM bars. It is super easy and quick to make, looks pretty, egg and dairy free and is always a winner. Its a sweet treat with all the marshmallows, but we all need a treat after a long day at school!

Ricebubble Slice
4 cups of rice bubbles
250g packet of marshmallows (I used Paskals pink & white)
25g nuttelex (dairy free margarine - you can use butter)

I put the marshmallows and butter in a microwave proof bowl and place in microwave. Start in on 30 secs, give it a quick stir, then give it another 30 sec zap.
It is quite sticky but smooth.

Place ricebubbles in a big bowl
Pour the melted marshmallow and butter onto the ricebubbles and mix straight away, making sure all the bubbles are covered.
Then place it into a paper lined tin and press it down. I pour on sprinkles, then place in the fridge usually top shelf for roughly half hour.
When its set, I spray a large knife with cooking oil spray. Then remove from tin and slice up into treat size. YUMMY.

Who will be coming for dinner tomorrow night?!
