    DH out, and I seem to be compensating with drink and food. >:)
    Oh well.

    I enjoyed watched Kirsty doing all sorts of lovely crafts. Especially the handmade paper. Great thing to do with kids.
    Plus sock snowmen/people.

    All good. Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Oh glad the recipe worked out for you! It have noticed it makes such a light and airy brittle, like honeycomb candy.👍🏻💖
    It doesn't make a big batch but enough! I could probably eat a whole recipes worth if I am watching a good movie!

    Oh, good! I was afraid I'd done something wrong when it stayed kind of blonde and poofy. Corey noticed too, that it actually had a chew and didn't just shatter when he was eating it, and he loved that. The taste was just outstanding. Think I'll make another batch while the grandkids are here - they'll enjoy helping, and they can eat it before they leave!

    Cheers...

    It definitely is blonde, you have to quickly stir the baking soda and vanilla in, then pour and scrape! It fuses to your spoons and bowls quickly.

    Rebecca and Lisa ... OK, I found the peanut brittle recipe ... It's 1/2 cup light corn syrup and 1 cup SUGAR? I can't imagine it's anything else, but I keep looking at the word for "sugar" and now I'm getting batty ...

    Yep 1/2 karo light corn syrup and 1 cup granulated sugar, mix as good as you can, scraping spoons back and forth.

    Rebecca - I will make that peanut brittle recipe, because it sounds like honeycomb, which I like. :D We don't have such a thing as corn syrup over here, but I found some US brrand stuff on Amazon which they are charging a fortune for, so I've bought a Chinese one. Same thing. Apparently, Google says you can substitute one cup sugar dissolved in 1/4 cup water. :o The recipe also reminded me that I needed to buy more vanilla extract, so that's done. I haven't got any salted peanuts though. Can buy those locally tomorrow.
    I'm going to try it out just because ....... because it looks unbelievably easy! :p Peanuts are good for you. Right? :laugh:

    Hair is trimmed and tidy. Still got to do the roots soon.
    Gearing up to make gluten free bread sauce tomorrow. Bought full milk and got the bread out of the freezer.

    We are planning to have a singing session after lunch tomorrow. We are going to try the classical pieces that we were being taught before covid. We have the sheet music and can follow recordings on YouTube. Should be fun. :o;)

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Just remember to use a really sturdy container because microwaving it, it turns to lava! My Pyrex measuring container is thick enough, though it gets warm, it won't break.

    Last weekend, I got my Christmas tipi set up for the kids to play in. It took about four trips to Home Depot and $200 in supplies to build. It also took about eight hours to get it the way I wanted it. But the kids have loved it.

    We've been out to our beekeeping group this morning. So fascinating! "We" did a major hive move - a strong collection of bees needed to go into a new hive, and we're getting the old hive so we'll have two. But it might be a little while before we get another swarm.

    And now it has started raining (again) so we're at home relaxing and listening to Christmas music.

    KJ - Love the tipi! Sounds like a busy Christmas season ahead! I thought the family was moving near you? Or is that coming with the new year?

    Barbara AHMOD - My DD is taking the dog with her to Hawaii, and there is a quarantine, but it can be as little as five days with the right vaccinations and tests prior to arrival. That's the way I read the website, but I've seldom seen a more convoluted document. She's the queen of sticking to the regulations, so I'm sure she'll have it all in hand.

    Ginny - Glad the surgery went well...

    I've been writing all day, quite cathartic, some publishable, some not. Nice quiet day.

    Love y'all,
    Lisa in AR

    This is good, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll get much more than that this month.
