I found after a long painful overnight call that a greasy breakfast was just what the doctor ordered!

Sorry about that.

No - I'm in Canada! No where near you I'm afraid.

Ok - so I can't drop some off for you!

It's called soft white fondant. Where are you located?

Welcome @Sweet-Tempered - @Chocolot is the one to answer caramel questions. Actually also the one to answer fondant questions. You want real fondant - I buy it - in huge pails - but you can make it following instructions in @Chocolot's book Candymaking.

Familiar with piccalilli and Branston - what’s Gentleman's Reliah?

Just a strip that has gone out of temper likely. Looks like the block wasn't cooled properly when it was formed.

We are Canadians - we are nice!

Winnipeg and Sudbury apparently are the closest (which isn't really closest). We should have sent one over before the deminimus ended, wonder when we will know if that gets overturned by the courts along with the tariffs

Me too!

Yup - that's the Ooni.

New toy. 22 inch classic Flax seed oil for seasoning Couple of Oklahoma Smash Burgers - mine with cheddar - hubby's without

Serrated knife for me.

It's more like the food I buy for other people rather than cooking for them.

I suspect if I won - other people would eat better!

My mother used to make a chicken a la king mixture - peas and mushrooms as I recall - in purchased ‘patty shells’ from Weil’s bakery in Hamilton - a favourite meal!

That was my other choice!

Missing @Anna N today. Out to lunch by myself while waiting to take my sister to an appointment. Her retirement home is right next to ‘Saving Thyme’ - a little bistro that Anna and I enjoyed. It was packed with lunching ladies! One empty table upon my arrival. opted for the confit chicken leg - so many options but hard to choose wrong.

Their bog-standard versions are actually my favourite! I have Neapolitan and vanilla in the freezer currently.

Resistance is futile! The mini-max is the one I'd likely get at this point - it's the same size as the medium but lower to the ground.

Better get them shipped before August 1st though.

Whippet - the Canadian version of the Mallowmar - my favourite had the raspberry splotch.

So still won't fit a quarter sheet pan

Curious re inside dimensions
