Melt it!

Melt margarine or butter in large saucepan over low heat (Note: I did not try this but if you can’t find Chocolate Marshmallows try adding a few drops of black food coloring to the butter and mix it in well, then add the white marshmallows). Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

Mix it!

Add Kellogg’s Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until well coated.

Spread it!

Using a buttered spatula or waxed paper, press mixture evenly into a 13×9x2- inch pan coated with cooking spray. When Rice Krispies have cooled then using your bat cookie cutter cut out your bats.

If you look at a lot of the movies now a days they will tell you that women want love and romance. While this is true to some extent this thought is not totally accurate. Love is show as some kind of high in the sky feeling that is hard to reach. We make it to complicated. So lets bring it down to earth. Women want more then what we view as “love”.Women want closeness - she wants you to be close to her.

Women want openness - she wants you to open up to her.

Women want understanding - don’t try to “Fix” her; just listen.

Women want peacemaking - she wants you to say “I’m sorry”

Women want loyalty - she needs to know that you are committed to her. She does not want to share you with another women.

Women want esteem - she wants you to honor and cherish her.

Through these ways we know that you love, value, respect, and care about us and who we are.
