buckeyes and the biggest loser

Watching the biggest loser finale....

while making

my annual holiday batch of buckeyes

kind of takes the fun out of it.

If

you don't know what buckeyes are:

a stick of butter

two or three big hunks of peanut butter

several cups of powdered sugar

roll the gunk into small balls - refrigerate

melt chocolate chips and a couple tablespoons of household wax in double boiler

dip each peanut butter ball into melted chocolate

See what I mean?

I think I will go climb one of the mountains around here......
