Happy Friday y'all! We have had some hot and humid days here in Virginia and some sunny days. YAY!! Our daughter still has one week left of school. We are after Labor Day starters so this is normal. Next week we will have a lot of events and such at school. Our baby is going into the 5th grade next year. That means middle school for her. I am so not ready for that.
We have some great features this week, including the hostess recipe that comes from me. Y'all that Creamsicle Fluff is so good! You have to try it! Take a little time and check out all the recipes this week. There is a ton to get supper on the table without any fuss. Have a wonderful weekend!

Creamsicle Fluff
It's all about the fluff!! Creamsicle Fluff that is! It is just something about these desserts that make them so fun to make and eat.
I just love making these desserts anytime we go to a potluck or picnic because they are just so dang easy to whip up. My Mom had been telling me for quite a while that she wanted to try one of these orange salads so I knew it was time to give it a whirl.
The only thing different with this recipe is that you have to boil the water and add it to the jello and then it needs to chill a bit. So even though it is quick to whip up, you still need a little extra time for the cooling process.
But seriously, this Creamsicle Fluff salad is so worth that little extra step. The day I made this, I took a good helping to my parents to try. I received a phone call a little while later telling me just how much they enjoyed it. My Mom has asked me several times since then when I was going to make it again. My husband also keeps asking when I will be making that "orange stuff" again. I have a feeling this Creamsicle Fluff will be made a lot this summer. And I am totally ok with that. Besides anything that has marshmallows in it is just plain fun to eat!
