Butterscotch Tart

Happy Monday, almost Tuesday!  I've been trying to get this post up all day but something (or someone) kept coming along that needed my attention.  Seriously, how is it Monday evening already?  I do.not.know.

 I hope your weekend was restful.  Ours was great.  I wouldn't call it restful, but it was really wonderful.  The highlight of the weekend was spending yesterday with dear friends...yummy food, great conversation, and perfect weather.  It was scrumptious!

Speaking of scrumptious, I have a little treat to share with you.  Even though there are a million or so things I want to write about, all that will have to wait.  I have just enough time to post this deliciousness and then I must get back to my real job.

I say this often, but THIS is my favorite dessert.  Make this for your family.  You will thank me.  :)

1 cup flour
3/4 cup chopped nuts
