Notes:

1. apres-tsunami fun continued by the fire circle with a chorus of kumbya captured by Stephanie.
   
2. Stephanie's recipe:
   

CONFETTI CRISP

2 sticks of butter (NOT margarine)
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup M&Ms **
1/2 cup peanuts **
1/2 cup broken pretzels (twists work) **
Saltine crackers

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange Saltine crackers on a foil-lined cookie sheet in a single layer side by side.

In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter and vanilla. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until mixture comes to a full boil. Continue boiling for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and immediately pour evenly over crackers.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.
Remove from oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Allow chocolate to soften, then spread evenly over baked crackers.
Sprinkle pretzels, peanuts and M&Ms over the melted chocolate.
Lightly press down into chocolate so it will stay.
Refrigerate until it is firm. Break into pieces and serve.

**You can add other toppings or take some out. It is up to you.
