Play Dough

I like this recipe for playdough. It doesn't dry out easily, which is why I like it. I usually double mine when I make it, too.

1 cup flour
1 cup warm water
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon oil
1/4 cup salt
food coloring
Mix all ingredients, adding food coloring last. Stir over medium heat until smooth. Remove from pan and knead until blended smooth. Place in plastic bag or airtight container when cooled. Will last for a long time.

Fruit Dip

I can't get enough of this fruit dip. I've made it three times in the last month, and I just can't stop! Maybe it's the simplicity of it, I'm not sure. So, on with the recipe...

1 8 oz pkg cream cheese
1 cup brown sugar
1 8 oz container cool whip

Beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer. Add brown sugar and continue to beat until smooth. Fold in cool whip. Then go ahead and start dipping. Yum, Yum, YUM!
