Hi Gussoinkers. Hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving. I'm writing this diary on Wednesday because I'll be gone until Monday. Thursday at friends -- I baked 2 batches each of Cranberry/Almond biscotti and Double Chocolate Decadence biscotti and bread. I couldn't eat one bite of any of it. I stupidly had pork schnitzel (panko crust) and put on 2 pounds overnight. I swear, the gluten demon is out to get me.
I'll be at the lake from Friday until we both stink too much to stand each other. The water pump has been pulled, neighbors who always offer us a place to hose off are closed for the season and we have to haul 5 gallons of water up a hill from the lake for 2 flushes. We're getting too old for that nonsense.
I'd be an eejit to post any recipes so close to post-waddling time so just talk amongst yourselves while I am freezing my butt off trying to do the last close up chores.
Hope all of you had a blessed and joyous holiday. I'll be back Tuesday with something on frostbite.
Who's Your Little Buddy?
