Two batches of brittle done, and about 75 crispy PB mixed and rolled...they now have to chill for a bit and I will coat them in the morning with chocolate and top with sprinkles & chopped peanuts while the chocolate is still soft! It's the 1st time I made those and the are yummy w/o chocolate, I can only imagine how yummy they will be when done! Plan to do some with semi-sweet and some with dark chocolate!!
Jenny...glad you had fun last night and Audrey did just fine home alone!! WOW...they did take good care of you with bonuses and the gifts & prizes!!
Temps here are above freezing now and stuff is starting to melt and get slushy....roads should be pretty clear by the time we leave for Rocky Ridge.
My DSB and family left Indiana this morning on a sheet of ice...they are moving back to PA this weekend. They lived here for many years and about 5-6 years ago they moved to Indiana to be near DSIL family...here family wanted to be "a part of the kids lives"...well, they rarely visited, never did anything fun with the kids, never had sleepovers or planned a fun day....Mike, Angie and the kids wanted to be "back home" in PA where family truly does want to be a part of their lives.
They will actually be moving in with Pat with the intention of buying her house once theirs in IN sells and they get settled here again....Pat & dad had planned to move to a retirement community before he died...Pat still wants to do that so when Mike & Angie get organized it will be a win/win for all. Mike is also going to buy Dad's old explorer and Pat will keep the CR-V...Mike was going to buy a car this year so again...a win/win for all!! I know Pat will enjoy having someone else in the house again before heading to a community setting. She's doing as well as can be expected this holiday season and we look forward to having her with us on Christmas day as always. She will be down after lunch to spend the afternoon with us and have dinner. Mike & family will be heading to Pat's ex's place after lunch so it works out great that she will have someone to be with all day!!
Time to grab a little snack and work on the last two dishrags I have to finish this weekend!! I'm in good shape so not panicking yet!
