PHOTO & RECIPE CREDIT: Martha Stewart!

Rocky Road Brownies ~  

Ingredients
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, plus more for pan
1 bag (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup chopped nuts, such as cashews, pecans, or walnuts

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch-square baking pan. Line bottom with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides; butter paper.

In a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of simmering water, combine butter and 1 cup chocolate chips. Heat, stirring occasionally, just until melted, 3 to 5 minutes.

Remove mixture from heat; stir in sugars and salt, then eggs, and finally flour, stirring just until combined. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 30 to 35 minutes.

Remove from oven, and sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips, then marshmallows and nuts. Bake until chocolate is shiny and marshmallows are puffed, about 5 minutes. Cool completely in pan. Using paper overhang, lift cake onto a work surface; cut into 16 squares.

Today, I challenge everyone to bake cookies or cupcakes or any treat (we are making the Rocky Road Brownies) or even store bought and take to a public service worker, i.e. fire station, police station, etc.  It could even be your local bank, gas station, or hair salon.  Make sure to attach a ‘Thank you” and also include one of the 365 Days of Kindness cards  HERE!   Who’s in? I am praying that everyone gets involved in this. None of us can help everyone, but all of us can help someone, and when we do we serve Jesus. We can make an impact in our communities, one life at a time!!

GOD IS GOOD. . ALL THE TIME!!

365 Days of Kindness
Today, I challenge everyone to go into a public restroom and place a packet of baby wipes on the baby changer. This is such an easy task to do and could be a huge blessing to a parent. In the last month or so we have had many opportunities to pick up FREE/CHEAP baby wipes.  I also attached a 365 Days of Kindness card. (YOU CAN PRINT THE CARDS BY CLICKING HERE).  The object of this is that they will receive it and use the card to do another act of kindness.  None of us can help everyone, but all of us can help someone, and when we do we serve Jesus and lives can be changed by small acts of kindness!!  It is such a cool way to show the love of Jesus.

Today, I challenge everyone to make a $1 donation to Cindy’s Fund.  She is a friend of my friend who is battling breast cancer and has a long road ahead of her.   I cannot even imagine what she is going through, but I know that not having to worry about finances will be a huge blessing to her, so please prayfully consider giving at least $1.  Jesus performed a miracle with 5 loaves and 2 fish and can do the same with $1!! You can donate BY CLICKING HERE!!

Here is the information from her page “Please consider a donation to the Cindy’s Crusaders Fund. This fund has been setup so that Cindy & Family can focus on healing and not worry about mounting bills due to her second battle with cancer.

Cindy fought her first battle with this horrible disease when she was in her early 20′s. Her battle to win against Hodgkin’s lymphoma took it’s toll on Cindy and her young family. Radiation treatments were what saved her life. Fastforward 15 years and here we are. The radiation treatments that saved her back then has now given her breast cancer. Cindy will be undergoing a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction within the next few weeks.

The doctors are optimistic that they can eradicate the cancer with these drastic measures. 75% chance that the mastectomy will take all the cancer out of her body. 25% chance that it may have spread and chemo will be needed after surgery. We won’t know until after the surgery. Cindy has a long road of recovery and healing ahead. 5 days in the hospital post surgery, 8 weeks of recovery at home, many visits to the plastic surgeon for expansion of the tissue expanders during the 8 weeks then a final surgery(about 3 months after) for the implants to be placed.

We know Cindy will win this battle, but she needs warriors on her team. Give a little, give a lot. We are asking that you give because Cindy would never ask.”

You can inform her that she is the recipient of Day 133 of 365 Days of” as well as we attached a 365 Days of Kindness card. (YOU CAN PRINT THE CARDS BY CLICKING HERE). (The amount can be as small as $1 or as much as you want!)  This is such a cool way to show the love of Jesus.

365 Days of Kindness
Today, I challenge everyone to get involved with Stamp out Hunger. All you have to do is put a bag full of nonperishable food items by your mailbox for your mail carrier tomorrow.  Donate items like canned meats, fish, soup, bottled juice, vegetables, pasta, cereal and rice that do not require refrigeration. Please do not include items that have expired or are in glass containers.

Here is some information taken from the Stamp Out Hunger FB page:

On May 11, 2013 we’ll celebrate our 21st year of Stamp Out Hunger! Help the NALC fight hunger in America by getting involved. Thanks for your support!

Company Overview
On Saturday, May 11, Campbell Soup Company will join forces with the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) to Stamp Out Hunger across America in order to provide assistance to the rapidly increasing number of Americans who are struggling with hunger.

Now in its 21th year, the Stamp Out Hunger effort is the nation’s largest single-day food drive. In 2012, 70.5 million pounds of food was donated, which brought the grand total of donations to more than 1.2 billion pounds of food collected over the history of the drive.

Unfortunately, despite the generosity of millions of Americans who have supported the letter carriers’ food drive in previous years, the need for food assistance has never been greater. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s annual study measuring food security in the United States, nearly 50 million Americans are living in food insecure homes.

The amount you donate can be as small as one canned good or as much as you want!)  Remember Jesus performed the miracle with 5 loaves and 2 fish and can do the same with your donation, even 1 item!! This is such a cool way to show the love of Jesus.

GOD IS GOOD. . ALL THE TIME!!
