    Pecan Pie Bars. Very easy, very rich, very calorie dense

    Before I got a full size slab of marble I would go dumpster diving at the local marble/stone fabricating companies. They always had cutouts from sinks (etc) from kitchen work. Some companies will sell the cutouts and polish them, others just say take what you find. On those that haven’t been polished on the downside (back side) I bought some cork and glued it to the backside.

    I’ve been boiling those cans for 50+ years and never had an issue. Of course, never open a hot/warm can of DDL just out of the boiling water (as my college friend did) as you will have a ceiling full of DDL (as he did). Out of the water and into the refrigerator….

    I made a large Eccle today, turned out pretty decent. I think I was kind of skimpy on the filling, or…I just made it to large….

    We have Amazing sponsors. One of our first is Renee Drolet of Chocolat-chocolat. not only has she supported us every year, but, she is one awesome, friendly and generous woman!! She brought enough molds to allow a drawing where every participant received a mold but she also brought several for us to use during the workshop. Now that my friends is Amazing. thank You Renee

    Some of you who have been to several previous Workshops may recognize this place. It’s where we are hanging our hats for the night. It’s here, in the lobby, where Kerry and I met the inimitable, wonderful Ruth, who became a close, lifelong friend…. but, i digress. We hit the road and enjoyed several (I stopped counting) glasses of wine from various NOTL vineyards. (We were sent on a mission to bring Icewine home for several friends) of course, we had to sample other varietals as well….

    Breakfast in Johnstown, PA….aka Flood City. We had breakfast at a small diner next to the ACE Hardware, supposedly run by a fellow who retired, left Johnstown, but came back and was so bored (but, then, who would not be bored there?) so he opened up Jax’s diner…. the food was quick, hot, and quite tasty… Really not to bad for $7.99….itmwould have been better if they had real Vermont maple syrup instead of Maple Syrup flavored Karo
