This blog is totally devoted to all things scrumptious. I am a grand lover of food, whether it be that I am making it or buying it. Friends have told me that no matter what we are talking about the conversation always comes around to discussing food...the best foods at this restaurant or that restaurant, what I cooked or baked up lately, etc. My sister-in-law Terry and my very good friend Kim insisted that I start my own blog to discuss exactly these things.

Ambrosia (Huh?)
My mom has made this dish called Ambrosia for picnics since I was little. I'm not really sure where the name comes from, but it is really good! Mmmmm...I can even taste it right now as I am typing this. Yummy!!
Now this is a really simple dessert to make. Everything is 1 cup!! You first take 1 cup of marshmallows.
Then add in 1 cup of canned pineapple (I'm sure you could use fresh too, but the canned is so much easier).
Next, add in 1 cup of mandarin oranges. Who doesn't love the sweetness of mandarin oranges??? They are cute and sweet and good for you too! :)
Next, add in 1 cup of sour cream and then 1 cup of coconut.
Mix it all together well and then eat! :) Yep, it is that simple. It is pretty light and refreshing. the texture is fun. I swear if you make this for dessert, everyone will love it. Your kids will love it too!!
