Vancouver Chapter event: Welcome home Jamie!

We had a little get-together this past weekend to officially welcome home Jamie from Korea. Jamie and her husband Steve have been teaching in Korea for the past few years and we are thrilled to have her back home in the land of hockey and maple syrup. Susan hosted a spaghetti dinner at her house and she and her roommate Mel made enough pasta to feed an army! And apparently my peanut-butter chocolate smores bars rocked the house so I've added the recipe at the bottom! Enjoying the fine evening was Susan and her *fiance* Scott ;) Her roommate Mel; Jamie the guest of honour; Carrie and her hubby Shane; Laura and her little guy Adam; and myself, my hubby Curt and little miss Robyn. Funny enough there was not a camera in sight....how did that happen? So sorry ladies, no pictures to share. But rest assured we all looked fab, and a little rosy cheeked from the wine! ;) Glad to have you home Jamie, we've missed you terribly! -Sarah Peanut-butter Smores Bars graham crackers mini marshmallows 12 oz (2 c) semi-sweet chocolate 2/3 c corn syrup 3 tbspn marg 1/2 c crunchy peanut-butter 3 c rice krispies Coat 9X13 microwaveable safe dish w cooking spray Arrange graham crackers in a single layers over the bottom Sprinkle marshmallows over top Micro on HIGH for 1 min or until marshmallows are puffy ( you can also put in oven at 400 if dish does not fit in microwave) Remove and cool completely In micro safe mixing bowl combine chocolate, corn syrup and marg.
