Thanks, W'n'C, that was very educational. I have to go find some of those recipes now!

Funny that you only got a smidge of snow...I was thinking of you being buried when I saw London on last night's news. Good old lake effect snow? Very odd here, barely any snow and it's been above freezing the last 2 days, when normally in early Jan we should be closer to -20C. I'm not complaining.

Yeah, no snow, and it's been around -2 C here lately. I'll take the "milder" weather too

Interesting about the truffles making you feel ill...my few sweets indulgences over the holidays leave me with an unpleasant feeling in the belly (not exactly nausea, not upset, just not "right"),

Yeah, that's the same feeling.

I may make a chocolate custard tonight...I found this when I was looking for a Christmas day dessert, but haven't made it yet...it sounds fantastic: Chocolate Custard | Everyday Paleo

Hmmm...

Your toenail still attached? And back to "normal" shoes?

It's still "hanging on". It wiggles...
No "heels" or anything tight yet. Moccasins, crocs, my flat leather boots

If I can stop someone else from putting coconut oil on their hair, it's worth digging up my old posts

Avoid Poisons & Stupid Mistakes
I know it seems like I'm having a fair amount of whipping cream lately. That’s because I have a LOT in my fridge. I’d bought 3 cartons for a New Years Eve dessert – frozen raspberries and whipping cream – but everyone was so full from supper that we didn’t eat it.

Move Slowly, Lift Heavy, Sprint
No. I thought about it…

11:30 – 9:00

I got up and I stayed UP! I KNOW!
I did some laundry, organized some stuff on my Mac, and marked some of my Home Instruction student’s stuff.

College Son came home at noon with my Beetle. They slept over at a friend’s place in the city.

I liked the “Italian Soda”. It reminded me of a Rootbeer Float.

One small plate of supper left me feeling full - I didn't finish my squash. Not however, full enough to skip the Chocolate

For some weird (but wonderful) reason known only to the Gods of Chocolate, Dark Toberone triangles do NOT upset my stomach
Truffles do, but not Toberone…

Every time I read Gay Panda's posts, I smile

I love toblerone but how do you eat it without it poking a hole in your mouth?

[winencandy]

Hahahaha!

You don't pop the whole triangle in your mouth at once, silly
Baby bites
It lasts longer that way.

My Farmer brought in a 1/2 bottle of red wine that's been rolling around in the back of his truck since New Years Eve.
It's still good, right???

Hang on, I'll let you know

I entered the #’s because I was curious about how much protein I was getting.
2 triangles of Toberone = 260 calories and 30g carbs
sigh...

Surfed the net, made lunch (for a change)*
Bought a new stove!
Why? Why do they put STUPID stickers on the front of the stove?

I got it off - I love Goo Gone

Look at that cook top!


I drank the Red Wine that’s been rolling around in the back of the truck since New Years Eve…

University Son called at 4:40. Second day of his Co-op placement and his car won’t start. He left the lights on…multiple calls later…and after failed attempts to boost it, he got a ride home with his boss and left his car there for the night…so my Farmer decided to get him CAA…too bad he can’t use it for 48 hours.

*On the days I have a Chai with whipping cream (around noonish) I’m not hungry till suppertime and I eat a smaller supper. Today, no Chai & whipping cream and I ate a big lunch and then a big supper…hmmm

[primal4fifty]

Thats a handsome new cooking implement you've got there, chick... I like toblerone too... sigh...
