Marshmallows!
I made mint flavored marshmallows.
I am going to have a sugar high all week.
I used Alton Brown's homemade marshmallow recipe with peppermint extract instead of vanilla. (I ran out of vanilla while making peanut butter cookies last week. Darn.)
In other news,
Phew!
We have started our fall break.
Thank God!
I need to breathe.
And do a lot of work.
To offer some follow up on the last few blog posts: The first batch of pickles did not turn out so well. However, I was given a recipe from my grandmother which turned out wonderfully! The pickled beet making went deliciously well also, but I didn't make enough and I am already down to one jar left. The half marathon was kicked and while I did not complete it under my goal time, I was really close.
Some things are changing around this blog. I have decided not to yoke my fair friend Sonic with the eclectic Episcopalian leader that I am on the verge of becoming and am starting a new site where such things as sermons, communion wafers, and other spiritual things will be found. I hope this will work out for the best for both of us. Never fear! I will still be old enough to know better but too young to care. ;)
