The kids and I have just spent another day cooped up in the house! Avery has a cold and the roads are STILL impassable. Just checked the weather and Environment Canada has put out ANOTHER heavy snowfall warning for tonight! This winter is becoming the snowiest one I can remember. The city was hoping to have our community roads ploughed by tomorrow, but now with this new snowstorm coming we might be stuck here awhile longer. We are very lucky hubby has a truck so we can get out if need be. The roads here are like driving on a glacier.
I do have one beautiful picture from the one day the snow stopped and before it started again...

Our favorite granola bars:
3 cups crisp cereal (we like the organic gluten free kind)
3 cups o-shaped toasted oat cereal (any type of cheerios works great)
1 1/2 cups raisins or craisins
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup honey
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
Grease a baking sheet.
In a large bowl, stir together the cereals, raisins, and sunflower seeds.
In a medium saucepan, combine the honey and sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, then lower the heat and continue boiling for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Add the peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until the peanut butter is liquefied.
Pour over the cereal in the bowl and stir.
Pour onto the baking sheet, patting it down into a compact layer.
Place in the fridge until firm.
Then cut into bars and store in a container in the fridge.
