After the bullying fiasco with my son yesterday, I decided it was time for a piled high ice cream sundae!!! We got some good, all natural strawberry ice cream, and all the fixings to go with it.... Mine ended up with bananas, ice cream, hot fudge, hot caramel, crushed up oreo cookies, whipped cream, and of course, it was topped with cherries!! (with a side of a lactose pill so I could enjoy it and not pay for it too bad later)
On a side note... we make our own caramel, and its the most amazingly simple recipe I have ever seen. Place a can of sweetened condensed milk in a large pan of water on top of a rack so its not touching the bottom. Keep at a low boil for 6 hours, adding water as needed so the can is always covered... open, and enjoy...

And yes, that method makes the best caramel ever. Speaking of which, I thought you might like this "experiments in dulce de leche". While it doesn't provide any surprises, I think it's still interesting... http://theheartoffood.com/experiment...stion-of-time/ |

I saw your post about the bullying and am really glad that you are confronting the oppressive system that allows that to happen. Great job! Definitely worthy of many ice cream rewards. I hope that your son is doing ok too, it is never fun to be bullied. It can be so confusing for kids. Ok I can seriously NOT make caramel. .gif "Say What?") I will have a teenager bouncing off the walls for days. She will suddenly start sneaking in cans of sweetened condensed milk. She will pretend to go to SAT study classes but will secretly be making caramel with her friends in someone's backyard. I see the writing on the wall, the red flags are not going to get by me this time. We had a 1950's themed party at work this summer and I brought home bags of candy and 50's style snacks like Twinkies that were intended to be fun fluff decorative items for the dessert buffet...omg huge mistake. Sugar high kid. Ok maybe I will make caramel for Christmas. Maybe

If I make caramel you will get a care package for sure. Toffee is a good idea too. Hmmmm... I recall a time in the past when I announced to my gf that I was going to study making confections. The reply cracked me up; "you have just made yourself 98% more attractive to most women with that simple statement" Omg I laughed so hard. In any case, I have been engaged in a self study but would love to work with someone who is really good at working with chocolate.

These are by far the best freaking breadsticks on the planet earth and the local restaurant that made them just up and quit one day. No warning, no offers to sell the place. Pinocchios was an icon for the entire town. Alas though someone has gotten ahold of the receipe and if you follow the directions excatly you can't tell the difference. Yummy!

That is one thing that I plan on doing, on my winter break between classes. Learn how to temper chocolate, and to do it well. I've helped do it in class a couple of times, but I would not say that I am good at it, right now.
