I Shoved a Marshmallow In Jen's Ear

No, seriously, I did.

You know the little hot-cocoa-sized marshmallows? She was throwing them at me. I warned her not to throw them. She kept it up. I threw them back, warned her that I would shove one in her ear. Did she listen? Nope. So, I pinned her down, acted like I was going to shove it up her nose, and when she went to cover it, I stuck it in her ear. Yes! I am not full of fail!

Yeah, I've been in a weird mood all day. Woke up sick, but I feel fine now. And I'm still adjusting to the time change, so even though it actually feels like 2:30, I'm still wide awake, cause I slept til 1. Crazy, baby.

Ohohohoh!! So, for Thanksgiving and Christmas, my Mahaw and I always make our own divinity and peanut brittle and hard candy. I've always helped her (read: mixed the ingredients, watched it come to boil, watched her pour it onto the cooling thinger, eaten the results). So, today, I decided to try and make pomegranathe hard candy.

Man, was that bad. It stuck to the wax paper, and tasted like burnt sugar. Ok, so that makes another thing to add to the list of "Do Not Allow Inyanna To Make": Hard Candy, raspberry fudge, pumpkin pie, divinity, fruitcake, pecan pie...

Anyone else noticing a pattern here?

Note to self--Great Cook, not a baker, should not make recipes calling for fruit...
