Good morning!
This will be my last post for a while and thought I would share with you a recipe for Popovers!
Popovers (Yorkshire Pudding)
1 cup of flour
1/4 teaspoon of salt
mix together then add 1 teaspoon of melted butter
Beat 2 eggs until foamy and add to the mixture
Beat for 2 minutes.
Fill smoking hot greased muffin tins
Bake 450 degrees for 15 minutes in a preheated oven
then reduce the heat to 350 degrees for 10 - 15 minutes until browned.
This recipe is a favorite of ours and one my parents could never make enough of when we had a roast beef dinner!
I hope you enjoy and will be back in a few weeks time.
Be well my friends<3

Good morning!
Today I would like to share with you my recipe for Kahaluah.
This recipe I have made over the years for Christmas gifts.
Kahaluah
3 cups of brown sugar
2 cups of water
Boil for 8 minutes and cool.
Add a 26 ounce bottle of alcohol (alcool)
5 tablespoons of camp coffee
1 teaspoon of vanilla and just over 1/2 cup of dark rum.
add 1 cup of chocolate syrup (recipe below)
mix together and ready to bottle!
This recipe makes 1.5 litres of Kahaluah this recipe can be doubled,tripled or quadrupled as you need.
It is a recipe that I enjoy making and people love to receive a bottle at Christmastime.

1/2 cup of sugar
6 tablespoons of shaved chocolate or 1/3 of a cup of cocoa

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Combine mixture and add salt boil 3 minutes and add vanilla.
Do you have a recipe your friends ask you to make often?

Thursday's Thoughts
Good morning!
Today I plan on finishing up my downsizing project.
I donated my old nursing uniforms to a young woman I know will appreciate having some new uniforms for work.
I went through the kitchen cupboards and got rid of anything that I haven't used in the past year or two, those things are just taking up space.
I had files of activities for seniors that I had compiled over the years I worked with them and donated them to the senior's day centre, I know that the staff there will appreciate new ideas for programming as well as the seniors for something new and enjoyable to do.
What do you plan on doing with things that are no longer of use to you?

Wednesday's Wish
Good morning!
My wish for this Wednesday is that everyone take the time to go through their cupboards and gather up a few canned goods and donate them to a foodbank or someone that could use it.
I did this last year I donated a blanket I had made and a few canned goods to a homeless person, this not only brought a smile to their face but mine as well.
I don't have alot but what I do have I share.
Do you share with those in need?

Boxes!
Good morning!
Well I was right the only place I could locate boxes was at the No Frills store in Campbellford.
I now have enough boxes to store away a few things I have put aside for my granddaughter when she will be old enough to enjoy and appreciate them.
Things I have had for many years and others I have purchased since she has been born.
I don't own alot of things but each thing I have will be owned by either my sons or their families once I have passed on.
There are certain things I want to go to certain people.
I plan on making a list of what is to go to whom so that each person in my life has something of mine that I want them to have and enjoy.
Do you have certain treasures you want to pass on to certain people in your life?

Busy Monday!
Good morning!
Today I am looking for boxes to store a few things away and they seem to be hard to come by.
Each store I have approached today to get boxes has told me that they don't keep boxes anymore they are torn-up right away and put into the recycling.
I guess I will be going to Campbellford to get boxes, the No Frills store is the only place I know for sure that still keeps their boxes.
Do you have a difficult time finding boxes where you live?
