National Chocolate Chip Day!
Wow, who knew chocolate chips had their very own day? I'm not sayin' they don't deserve it or anything, I was just surprised when I heard that. In honor of this great holiday, I thought I'd share one of my favorite (and most easy) recipes that features chocolate chips (it's their day, they deserve to be bolded).
** Fall Harvest Bars**
(don't let the name fool you, they're great in the summer and winter too)
1 yellow or white cake mix
1 yellow or white cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
1/2 cup Skor toffee bits (I use more like umm, 3/4 a cup or even a whole cup)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (more of these yummies too)
Heat oven to 350. Mix cake mix, egg and oil with a spoon (not a mixer). Stir in candy and chocolate chips. Press dough in greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake 14-20 min. (in my oven it's 18 min.) until light golden brown around the edges. Cut into bars and serve.
Seriously could it be any easier than that? It takes more effort to drive to the nearest grocery store (which is 7 miles away and in the next town) to buy cookies than it does to make these babies and they are YUMMM! At least in my opinion and they make my house smell scrumptious. Go ahead, try them, I dare you, then let me know what you think!

P.S.~ I have officially decided, I am doing preschool next year. I hung up my signs today and I must admit it made me a bit nervous. Thank you all for you input and suggestions! I'm sure I'll have many, many more questions.
