Regional treats. Yes, I received it as a gift via UPS. My old (as old as me) H.S. friend’s husband makes it. He has a company that makes a lot of specialty items I’d like to learn more about.
The first time I tried it, it was strange because my brain couldn’t get over the hurdle of popcorn with chocolate. This time I tried a handful and it was good. Different, but good. I tried to save it for a special occasion to showcase Western NY foods but Jim found it, by napkins and place mats, imagine that he even thought of place mats, and ate at least half of it.
I’d like to add to this blog more regional dishes and interviews with interesting people who cook. Hope you approve. You’ll let me know by whether you read me or not.
Facebook is a mystery to me. I’m getting entire life stories from people I don’t even know. Compared to that, a blog is easy. Twitter, forget it. I’m already up to over 136 words, forget characters. Haiku is an exercise of restraint for me.
As to cooking, keep it simple, local, seasonal and use the best ingredients you can find. We’ll talk about heavy sauces later. btw, I did order one frozen mac & cheese from the delivery folks. When I have that for lunch one day I’ll let you know how much quality goes into their organic products. Oh, the hummingbirds are back. I heard they don’t come after wasps have been at the feeder and that’s what happened last week.
Keep cooking and finding new ways to care for your loved ones. Thanks for reading, Dee.
