I was looking around on Pinterest (thanks to @DesirousDreamer for recommending Pinterest for recipes) when I seen a neat recipe for Saltine Cracker Candy with toffee, chocolate and pecans.
I had all the ingredients already, so I decided to give it a try and make some for tomorrow.
It didn't come out the way I wanted it to or like the picture showed, but it's not bad. My toffee wasn't thick enough and my chocolate didn't melt all the way. I think I also burnt the crackers a bit 
Oops! 
Practice makes perfect! I am sure it will turn out better the next time I make it.
Oh well, It was fun trying something new!

@MikesAngel317 Sometimes I also rush to try a recipe. The first time we should take our time.

@LadyDuck I was just so excited to make it and before my boyfriend came back home, I did rush a bit. Next time I will definitely take it slow and hopefully it will come out better.

Oooh, it still sounds delicious even though it didn't come out right. We learn from our mistakes!

My boyfriend loved it! 
It does taste pretty good even though it doesn't look pretty.

@DesirousDreamer He even asked me if I have enough ingredients to make more! So, I guess I will be making it again sooner than I thought. I am going to try to make it pretty next time.

I love pinterest and I love trying new recipes. I saw similar ones to the one you re describing and a friend said it was amazing.

It really is yummy! I just need to make sure it looks better next time. I'd love for it to come out looking like the photo on Pinterest.

Well, I did make an apple pie recently. It was the first apple pie I had ever made, and it turned out great! It tasted good and looked really pretty as well.

Trisha Yearwood has a recipe for this no pecans but I think they could be easily added.

I find recipes don't always turn out the way we expect them too but with a bit of tweaking eventually you succeed

Yes, I plan on trying it again in the near future. I am determined to get it right!
