Butter Bars

Last night for dinner we had breakfast burritos, not really something I need to share a recipe for. But our dessert? Oh, my, the dessert. In the name of everything buttery and bad for you, make these Butter Bars - NOW!!!


One funny thing that happened at dinner....... we were all talking and sharing, having a great meal. Suddenly, Cam speaks above everyone else, "Hey! Guess what? I entered the drawing in the library for one of the Justin Bieber posters!!!" Complete SILENCE. Everyone looks at each other. Massive laughter ensues. "What in the world did you do that for?" "Justin Bieber? What is wrong with you?" After we settled down he told us his plan, "I want to draw a mustache and beard on it and put it in Colby's room!!" Oh!!! That made sense, because that particular brother gets accosted on the street by preteens who think he is the Bieb's in the flesh!! We were all worried there for a second though!!!
