Apparently I'm writing a post...

So, here we are...and I'm writing a post. What will it be about? Who knows! Yaakov and I managed to get some cleaning/organizing done over the weekend. We now have two desks in the middle bedroom and a comfy chair in the main bedroom. Sometimes I wonder why we call the other one a "middle bedroom" when we've always used it as an office. We should just call it the office. That would make more sense...

...Yup...

Well...that's all I've got for today. Sorry it was so boring. Next time, I'll be sure to have done something really exciting I can write about. :)

Strawberry Picking

Image
It's strawberry season, ladies and gents! Of course, it's almost over. And of course, while strawberry season comes to a close, I'm only just getting around to it. But yesterday I headed out to Baugher's Farm to pick them for myself.  I brought along my mom and my daughter, both of them first timers!  They basically just sat on the bench while I did all the labor, but they enjoyed the beautiful weather and the sprawling green landscape. As you can see, I got a decent amount.  Still, the pickin's were slimmer than I'd hoped. Since I don't cook or bake as much as I used to, what with this small, precious, demanding person who's entered my life, I figured I'd better freeze these babies for future use. I washed them, cut off the tops, dried them with paper towels, spread them out on a baking sheet, and stuck them in the freezer. In a little while, I'll take them out and seal them in a freezer bag. Supposedly, they&#

Coconut Milk Caramel

Some of you may recall my history with candy-making is...not great. You may recall the " fudge fiasco " of 2011, or the apple cider caramels I made for mishloach manos one Purim a couple years back that took all day and came out so awful I didn't even post about them. Well, ever since those awful experiences, I've pretty much avoided any kind of candy recipes.  Cooking sugar on the stove has just been a major no-no for me.  I've made a few simple syrups, but I did so begrudgingly and with great trepidation. I've even seen these seemingly simple microwave caramel recipes floating around, but I've been too scared to attempt them. But then a few days ago, I saw something new.  It was a recipe for caramel sauce made with coconut milk, honey, and sea salt.  Nothing else.  I had all the ingredients on hand and a free day coming up. I went for it. And I'm not sorry, either. I had intended to cook this longer so that it would become a candy, as

A Note About The Unknown

Tomorrow I embark upon a journey--a journey into a world which is largely unknown in today's world. Tomorrow, I delete my facebook account. What lies ahead is anyone's guess. Who knows how many friends will go the extra click to keep in touch with me via email. I know it may seem a lot to ask, but I know that they are strong people, and I have faith in them. This blog is being reinstated to help my friends cope with the loss of my status updates. I'll try to write on here about once a week, even if all I have to say is, "Work, school, life." Well, wish me luck on my journeys. And don't forget to keep in touch. :)
