We asked someone for directions and she saw my 2 boxes of Twinkies in the back seat. We began talking about Hostess going bankrupt and I said "Oh, someone will buy them". She must've thought I was talking about my 2 boxes, and asked me if she could buy them (no). lol
I made beef stew in the crockpot while we closed up the porch off the garage. What a job. Sunny but cold. Stew was good over mashed potatoes.
Since sweet potatoes are only 29 cents a lb, I did a trial run of my rum-sweet potato casserole. I added too much thyme, but that's why the test run.
Served hummus and tabouli-stuffed grape tomatoes for my book club meeting on Saturday. A little time-consuming, but good. Would be good with added cheese next time.
Went to my favorite little discount grocery store where they have all sorts of unusual stuff that differs from time to time, and picked up some Danish butter, black olive pate, a peppermint pudding mix (still trying to think of what to make with that, chocolate-something!), and cranberry cheddar cheese. It's always a fun place to go.
Already thinking ahead to what cookies to bake and freeze for the neighborhood cookie swap. 'Thinking Spritz (if I can work my cookie press this time!). Making caramel apple pie for Thanksgiving.
