Lucky Charm Squares

they're magically delicious.

With St. Patrick's Day less than a week away, I decided to get in the spirit early this year and make some Lucky Charms squares.

In reality, I'll use any excuse in the book to buy Lucky Charms.  As a child I was deprived this glorious food.  As an adult, I feel guilty about buying this glorious food.  Well, sort of guilty.  Usually by my 3rd bowl, the sugar goes to my head and I feel at ease with the purchase.

The only thing better than one bowl two bowls of this cereal, are these squares.  Period.  Marshmallows within marshmallows?  Don't mind if I do.  Rainbows, pots of gold, four leaf clovers....oh you make me happy!

Now for the other great part of this holiday.  Green Beer!  Is it to early to start celebrating?  Nah.
