Status Report: Home now for 10 days

Life is sure complicated and since we've been home, there's never been a dull moment. Drama here, drama there... drama, drama, everywhere.

I've decided when things come at you this hard and this fast, it's time to say "Enough!" so I got out a recipe from one of my dearest friends, and this ol' fat thing made herself a giant pan of "Peanut Butter Fudgelike Candy" -- and it's YUM!!!

Yeah, that's right, this old gal who avoids the kitchen like the plague, made a damned fine tray of candy... and it's mine.

When life comes at you fast just like that commercial that sells car insurance says -- STOP... take it slow and easy... and grab a sweet.

I can walk it off later, much later, once I'm healed up.

Here's the super yummy recipe, that's "So simple, a caveman could do it!"

Peanut Butter "Fudgelike" Candy

In a large microwaveable bowl, combine:

2 Sticks Butter or Margarine

2 cups of Peanut Butter

Cover with plastic wrap, poke holes in the plastic for venting

Microwave for 2 minutes on high

Remove bowl and stir

Return to microwave for another 2 minutes on high

Remove bowl from microwave and add:

16 oz. powdered sugar

Mix until mixture becomes thick, pour into a greased pan (glass or metal), place in the refrigerator until hardened.

Note: You may cover the fudge-like candy with waxed paper before chilling, but it is not necessary.

Recipe courtesy of my best gal, Chris... Girl, I love ya, and this candy hit the spot! It was PERFECT!!

Night, all!
