What, No Magic??????


Wollf hangs head, wipes tear from eye with furry paw....(ouch, I have GOT to trim these claws...)....

Raises voice to the Moon.

I read a posting over at Rambling Rose.....her link is in the Auspicious Wollf Pack in the side bar.....and a teeny part the Christmas Mystery was revealed to be a Hoax.

Something that I have always believed simply on Faith. One of the very cornerstones of my personal Christmas Vision. What comes only at this time of year? The Gift that lasts the whole year long?

The Creche? The sleigh? Frosty the Snowman? The Menorah, Guiding Star, Miracles, "Christmas Vacation", The Wise Men? Trees, Holiday decorations, Family and Friends.....Midnight Mass, Stockings........Santa????

There's a man behind the curtain..........

Home made Peanut Brittle can be created by ANYONE!!!!!

Someone......anyone......? I always believed that magical, once a year Treat was made by the Elves, and they alone. Rambling Rose has pulled back the curtain, and my Faith is wounded...

But, on the other hand....Wollf is going to make.......





Peanut Brittle

1 cup sugar 1 tsp butter
1-1/2 cups salted peanuts 1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup white corn syrup 1 tsp baking soda

Microwave peanuts, sugar and corn syrup on high for 3 minutes. Stir and then cook for 3 more minutes. Stir in butter and vanilla. Nuke for 2 more minutes. Add soda. Stir quickly but thoroughly to evenly distribute soda. Pour onto greased cookie sheet or pizza pan. Cool. Break into pieces. Makes 1 pound.

Note: Every microwave is different so the time may have to be adjusted . The first batch will be sort of trial and error time wise; but once you figure out the correct cooking time for your microwave, it's great because it is so easy to do and turns out the same every time.

Next, she going to tell us that Egg Nog doesn't come from Easter Bunny eggs.....

Sheesh! Don't EVEN mention Santa, or I'll jump. Lil' Wolfie started telling me about Him last night. Get the picture? Wollf with paws on ears howling LALALALALALAL, Owwooooo, LALALALALA....

I don't want to hear it.

You are sooooooo funny - but I do love that picture of you. Yup, it is one of my favorite wolf poses.
