I love my wife everyday. But, on days like this, I really love her.  ¶ 9:27 PM

  Crunch, Crunch, Crunch

That's the sound I heard as I moved around the kitchen. I peered over my pregnant belly, down at my feet and saw a smattering of gluten free crispy brown rice nuggets. That's what happens when you try to transport 6 cups of crispy cereal across the countertop, over the floor, into a safe landing in your biggest stockpot.

Sometimes you just have a craving for something sweet. And since I'm celiac and especially vigilant because I'm pregnant, I make most of my sweets. Today it was crispy rice treats. They are still cooling, but I tasted the ones that were left behind in the mixing bowl, and, well, let's just say they probably won't last long.

Gluten Free Crispy Rice Treats

10 ounce container of ricemellow Creme
1/4 cup of butter
1/4 cup of peanut butter
6 cups of gluten free brown rice cereal, Erewhon

Mix the first three ingredients in a big stockpot over low heat until completely melted. Stir well to combine. Add the 6 cups of cereal and mix until well coated. Transfer to a WELL BUTTERED baking dish and spread out, pressing down. Allow to cool and then try to dislodge the sticky, yummy mass onto a cutting board and cut into squares with the biggest, sharpest kitchen knife you have. Try to keep your husband from eating them all before you get to have some.
