michigan weather

I cannot believe it's almost December and it hasn't snowed yet!

Michigan might have one of the coldest and hardest winters but

it it probably the most beautiful state.

I love spring when the tulips come up. Hollands Tulip Time!

Summer is my favorite! I love going to the beach with my family.

The leaves changing colors is amazing during the fall.

And here we are at December, snow coming any day now.

I'm not looking forward to scraping my windshield and shoveling

my driveway, however I love how the white snow blankets

outside making everything look so clean and bright.

Michigan is really an amazing place to live!

sweet potato souffle

Kenz and I spent the afternoon getting ready for Thanksgiving.

We made two amazing Sweet Potato Souffles.

One of them for my in-laws dinner and one for my families dinner.

I wanted to share the recipe:

Crust:

1 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup flour

1 cup chopped pecans

3 T butter, melted

Combine all in mixing bowl and set aside.

Sweet Potato Mixture:

3 cups mashed sweet potatos

1 cup sugar

1/2 tsp salt1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs, well beaten

1/2 cups butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat medium size

casserole dish with cooking spray.

Combine above in order listed.

Beat thoroughly with hand mixer to increase

fluffiness of the sweet potato mixture.

Pour mixture into dish. Bake for 30 minutes.

(at this point you can cover and

refrigerate if making ahead of time)

Sprinkle surface evenly with crust mixture

and return to oven for 10 minutes

or until warm. The brown sugar crust

should be slightly browned and crunchy.
