The Goode Witches of Salem

The Good Witches of Salem

have returned...

"There were Seven Witches of Olde

From the Family of Goode I am told

Instead of BeWitching, they'd rather be Stitching

Their Hearts were not Black, but pure Gold.

Abigail, Prudence, Constance, Mary

Pricilla, Patience and Rose

They all lived in Salem, with their Brother Abram

Down by the Edge of the Cove

Instead of attending Spell Binding School

or learning their Charms and their Chants,

Wool they were Dying, New Colors were Trying,

Weaving Threads from their Bundles of Flax.

Seven Goode Witches, Seven Goode Sisters

A Needle and Thread but no more

Olde Black Cats were not found, but White Sheep did abound

They hung Quilts, not Brooms, by their Door.

Yes, Legend has it they were Amiable Folk

Kind hearted, the Gents they did Swoon

When others went Flying and Stars were a Shining

They Danced by the Light of the Moon.

Lambing Season Party Day 5

Happy St. Patrick's Day! 

We have come to the LAST DAY of our Lambing Season Open House Party.

All of us at the Cottonwood House are SO APPRECIATIVE, and SO LUCKY to have such great customers! 

The WINNER of the Day 4 Giveaway is...

ANGELA BOWMAN

CONGRADULATIONS! 

Now onto our LAST Recipe. This one is sure make you feel LUCKY! 

St. Patrick's Day Rice Krispie Treats with Lucky Charms Marshmallows

INGREDIENTS: 

1/4 C Butter

4 C Soft Marshmallows

5 C Rice Krispie Cereal

1/2 TSP Vanilla Extract

Green Food Coloring

Approximately 3/4 C of Lucky Charms Marshmallows

DIRECTIONS:

Melt butter over low heat until completely melted. Gradually add marshmallows and stir often to avoid burning them. When marshmallow/butter mixture is completely melted, add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla and your green food coloring and mix well. Remove from heat and stir in your Rice Krispie cereal. Once mixture is mostly combined, stir in the Lucky Charm’s marshmallows.  My kids and I picked them out of the Lucky Charms. If possible, store in an air tight container and they will stay softer longer! A ziplock bag works great

ENJOY!

Now onto a recipe that is sure to become a FAVORITE! 

Homemade Pretzel Bread

We found this Recipe from Food Joy Sunshine. It has quickly become a family favorite around here!

Ingredients:

• 2 ¼ tsp yeast
• 1 cup warm water (105-110 degrees F) 
• 2 TBS whole milk
• 3 TBS brown sugar
• 4 TBS butter, melted
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 quarts water 
• ½ cup baking soda
• Kosher salt to taste 
• 2 TBS butter, melted
• 1-2 TBS coarse sea salt
• 
  
• Combine yeast, water, and brown sugar in the bowl of your standing mixer fitted with the dough hook. Let stand for 5 minutes (until foamy).
• While yeast is proofing…melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Mix in milk and set aside. 
• Once yeast is proofed, add milk/butter to yeast mixture and mix on low speed with dough hook until just combined. 
• Add salt and flour and mix with dough hook until flour is fully incorporated. 
• Knead in your mixer until the dough forms a slightly tacky, but firm ball, you may need to add a little more flour 1 TBS at a time, but be careful, you want your dough a little tacky but not too sticky to handle. 
• Oil a large bowl, place the dough ball in the bowl, and cover with a damp towel in a warm place to let rise for one hour or until doubled in size. 
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and bring the 4 quarts of water to a boil. When the water is boiling, slowly add the baking soda (Be careful or you will have a baking soda/water explosion)! 
• Remove the dough from the bowl and gently press out the air bubbles. 
• Make two balls of dough the same size.  Drop one of the balls into the boiling baking soda water. Boil for 60-90 seconds on each side, turning it once to guarantee both sides covered. Drain the excess water from the dough and place it on an oiled baking sheet. 
• Immediately sprinkle coarse sea salt over the bread to your specific tastes, and use a knife to cut a small incision on the top of the bread so the dough has somewhere to expand. 
• Repeat with second ball of dough.
• Cook the bread for 22-25 minutes, rotating the baking sheet once. 
• Once removed from the oven, immediately brush the melted butter over the loaves to guarantee a soft crust. 
•

Lemon Bars!

INGREDIENTS

For the crust:

• 1 and ¾ cups (220 grams) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
• ¼ cup (32 grams) cornstarch
• ½ cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (230 grams) unsalted butter, softened

For the lemon filling:

• 1 and ½ cups (300 grams) granulated sugar
• ¼ cup (32 grams) all-purpose flour
• 4 large eggs
• ½ cup (120ml) fresh lemon juice
• 
  
• INSTRUCTIONS
• 
  
• To make the crust:
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 baking pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper, making sure to leave some overhang for easy removal, and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, sugar, and salt. Cube the butter into smaller pieces and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter (or your hands) cut the butter into the mixture until it's crumbly and starts to come together. Scoop the mixture into the prepared baking pan and press it down into one even layer.
  3. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes, or just until the top is set and edges are lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside. Keep oven temperature at 350°F.
  
  
  To make the lemon filling:
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and flour. Add in the eggs and lemon juice and mix until fully combined. Pour the lemon filling over the crust and return to the oven.
2. Bake at 350°F for 18-22 minutes or until the lemon filling is set. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 1 hour, then cover tightly, and refrigerate for at least two hours. Sift powdered sugar on top, slice into bars, and enjoy!

Strawberry Pecan Salad

So Good and So Refreshing!

INGREDIENTS:

FOR THE SALAD:

• 1 cup Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 12 oz package Romaine lettuce, chopped
