Possible Blizzard & Recipe

We're in a blizzard warning until noon tomorrow.  We were kind of on the line to get not much or a lot but now they're saying 8" for us with 45 mph winds.  We'll see!  We figure we WILL get it this time since our generator is not hooked up!  Bill is moving it from the old, little garage where the power was on the outside of the building to the inside of the new building, but our electrician hasn't been back to finish this last part.  We're not too worried since we have the propane stove in our living room that can run without electricity and it really heats up the room fast!  
It has started snowing!  By the way, we did finally get 1/2" of rain the other day.  First in a long time.   

I was asked to make some projects for a West Bend high school class on their last day before Christmas break which is Fri.  It turns out that almost 30 kids have signed up to take this stamping class!!!!!!!!  Yikes!  So an elf showed up to help me get all of that ready today (Peggy!)!  We got a lot done and the projects are cute!  I'll post about that another day.  

Since Peggy was coming over to help, I asked her to have lunch with us.  I tried a Carmel friend's crockpot lasagna which was easy and turned out good, and I made this nut roll recipe that Aunt Bette Jo had made this fall.  We like it and it's very easy!

NUT ROLL

1 jar of dry roasted peanuts
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 bag peanut butter chips
3 c. small marshmallows

Put half of the jar of peanuts on the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan.  Melt together in the microwave:  peanut butter chips, milk, and marshmallows.  Pour over peanuts and sprinkle rest of nuts on top.  Refrigerate to set up.
