This mouthwatering granola concoction is great for snacking or as an ice cream or yogurt topping. Mmmm! Enjoy!

1 Cup slivered almonds
¼ Cup, plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
¼ Cup, plus 2 tablespoons honey
¼ Cup Vegetable oil
¾ tsp salt
1 Cup {or more} dried cherries
1 small package slivered almonds

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. In a large bowl, combine oats, cherries, nuts and brown sugar. In a separate bowl, combine honey, oil and salt. Combine both mixtures and pour onto a jelly roll pan. Cook for 1 hour and 15 min., stirring every 15 minutes. Allow to cool and store in an air tight container.

Happy Valentines day

Well tomorrow is valentines day, a New week also.

If I haven't told you I plan on staying one more year at school. Some times I am good with this and sometimes not so good.

This year is going so fast that I am sure next year will also.

Hope you all are happy and that you have a great Valentines day. Kiss your valentine for me also.

Love Ya all.
