Happy Holidays to everyone! This is one of my favorite times of the year & I love Christmas movies. Here is a list of some of the tons of movies coming to a tv close to you.

~Miss Piggy Quote
"How far should a girl go on the first date? Tucson. However, if you live in Texas, you can probably go a bit farther."
~Miss Piggy
~The Muppet Movie...Week-End
Happy Week-end to everyone out there in honor of the new up in coming movie , I thought I would take you back to the beginning. I was lucky enough as a kid to see this movie on a field trip for school. The Muppets will forever hold a place near and dear to my heart......
Tis the season for "Miss Piggy's Pink Peppermint Cake"
1 cup cake flour (sifted)
112 cups sugar (divided)
12 large egg whites
1 tsp cream of tartar
14 tsp salt
112 tsps vanilla extract
112 tsps fresh lemon juice
12 tsp almond extract
14 tsp food coloring (red)
12 cup peppermint (crushed hard, candy)
1 Preheat oven to 325ºF.
2 To make cake, lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour and 3/4 cup sugar, stirring with a whisk.
3 Place egg whites in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. Add cream of tartar and salt; beat until soft peaks form.
4 Add 3/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla, juice, almond extract, and red food coloring.
5 Sift 1/4 cup flour mixture over egg white mixture; fold in and then repeat with remaining flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time. Fold in crushed peppermint .
