What is Provel Cheese?

Unique to St. Louis, one taste and you either love it or hate it (most do love it).  See the Wiki entry here .  Our family buys it in 5 lb blocks from the Italian Market on Bryan Rd.  Almost 1/2 the price we'd pay at a grocery!

Easter S'Mores

Everyone loves these anytime of year. Easter just gives us one more excuse to glamorize them. Easy-peezy and fun to do with the kids.

Ingredients:
Peeps - pick your favorite
M&Ms - Easter colors of course
Graham Crackers - I used Teddy Grahams for ease of assembly and yum-factor, sticks would be good for this purpose also

Directions:
Assemble ingredients by layers in a clear or glass container. The original recipe called for a small Mason jar but I used some fun glasses found at the dollar store.  Enjoy "raw" or warm for a very short time (no more than 10 sec) in microwave.
