Q. 3 months of relationship. I have bought her a 1st months gift and a bday gift of couple rings and wrote a letter the next month..... when she came to my house i cooked for her. Well she basically hasn't done anything for me. But we talk to each other everyday over the phone and love each other but how do i know if she really loves me if she doesn't do anything. Action counts not words.
Im not saying she must buy me materialistic stuff but she doesn't prove. She hasn't sacrificed anything for me before.

I am looking for a recipe for those chocolate jelly rings?
Q. I am looking for a recipe for those chocolate jelly rings that are rasberry in flavor that you usually see at a candy store. Does any one know where i could find a recipe for it or have a recipe?
A. you would need to go to a cake and candy store and find good dipping chocolate
rasberry jelly
Ingredients:
1.75 oz powdered fruit pectin
1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
3/4 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons raspberry extract
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
red food coloring
Directions:
Warning: the first half of the recipe needs to be completed the day before you want to eat the candy.
Grease a loaf pan. Stir together pectin, water and baking soda in small pan. Cook on high heat. At the same time, bring the sugar and corn syrup to a rolling boil, stirring occasionally. When it reaches boiling, add the pectin mixture. Cook for about 1 additional minute stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add extract and food coloring, stirring to incorporate. Pour into the prepared pan and allow to cool, loosely covered, overnight on the counter. The next day invert the pan on to a platter or plate full of sugar. If you have trouble unmolding the candy, use a sharp knife to loosen it from the perimeter of the pan and carefully slide your fingers underneath the candy to gently peel the candy out of the pan. Press both sides of the candy into the sugar. Slice the candy into 1/4 inch slices, then cut each slice into 1/4 inch cubes. Roll each cube in sugar. Allow to sit an additional hour before packaging or serving. I packaged some of mine in candy bags to give as gifts and the rest is stored in Tupperware.

A. My great-granddaughters, now 6 & 9 have long been involved in charitable giving. In fact, tomorrow I am taking them & a trunkful of toys to donate to our local toy drive. Whenever we go to a dollar store, I give them $1 to spend on themselves & $2 to shop for another child. Each girl picks the sex & ages of the children she will help. We collect the small items all year & this month they'll carefully place them in decorated shoeboxes. Some of the shoeboxes go abroad as part of the Samaritan's Purse Chirstmas Child project, though most are distributed locally via The Shoebox Project to foster children & to those whose moms have sought refuge at our local Women's Shelter.
We try to do things throughout the year that teach good neighbor practices within our own community. For example, when we buy school supplies we buy for the entire class because our schools cannot afford them & neither can most of the students. The teachers are always overjoyed to have abundant materials for every student. Just before each major holiday we take candy treats around to the county offices to thank all the folks who work there.
I'm glad that you are including your children in neighborly activities--I'm sure they will always remember how easy it is to make other folks happy.
