Back again

But I'm not going to even try to remember everything we've eaten since I last logged on here. Suffice it to say, we've had plenty, remained in a perpetually stuffed state, and nearly eaten our way into sugar comas. It's been a great Christmas! Over the past week or so, Daddy picked up some groceries for us, totaling $48.50, bringing the grocery money to $638.22.

Here's some food-related fun we've had in the last week or two:

Chocolate mints using THIS recipe.

Obviously, I decided to dip the mints instead of top them. One tip if you decide to do this recipe: Keep them in the freezer. I did most of the time, and they were delicious that way. But I also wanted to see how they held up out of the freezer. Well, they held up okay, but the chocolate got grainy...

The final result of our plum pudding adventures! Much to our surprise, it was actually pretty good! We just need to add more nuts and cook it somewhat less. Still, we were fairly pleased with the end result, especially since we've never done it before!
