Yesterday we made a double batch of peanut butter balls. It took forever. Today, the chocolate cream pie. And I think I ruined a batch of peanut brittle, time will tell on that one.

Are peanut butter balls like Reeses peanut butter cups only spherical? If so, can you send me some!!! That sounds beyond yummy.

I think they are better spherical like, you can really sink your teeth into a big honkin' bite. If they were flat, cookie like, still yummy, but perhaps less big bite satisfying...Unless of course, they were infinite in a non-Euclidean way.  ;)

All that said, I'm totally willing to debate Peanut Butter Balls versus Peanut Butter Discs. I'm first in line for taste testing.

Merry xmas everyone.

Love the setting in front of the corner window. Looks idyllic.

Excellent presentation.  Your family must be the very hungry sort.  That looks like way too much food.

That's home style fries with honey baked ham and Pennsylvania dutch apple pie with vanilla ice cream.

I've been using recipes from Cook's Illustrated.  The recipes and preparation methods are a little over the top but the results are usually good.

It was, didn't eat again until 2.30 boxing day, the dogs did end up with some of it.

Not poppers but crackers like Gayer said, they do go bang when pulled but no confetti, a paper crown you wear all dinner, a gift and a crap joke.

Sorry Gayer, we are saving the rest for when the other two make it home and we are doing  a rerun.

I think my recreational drug use lingo was leaking out with the use of the term "poppers". Crackers! That's what I meant.

I just tried making a white clam and bacon jam pizza for lunch.  Wasn't too bad, but I think that the vinegar in the bacon jam pretty much overwhelmed everything else.  I suppose that I'll try with regular bacon next time.

I was imagining sending them by Little Red Ridinghood in a wicker basket, but she has apparently been detained by the RSPCA, oh well.

I made more pasties but I ate them so I can't send them to anyone. Sorry. They were delicious. And I still had a load of the filling leftover which I put it an oven dish and stuck in the oven for a while and ate that. Also delicious.

Has anyone gotten an air fryer? Any favourite things to cook?

Thank you much, now I have an outlet for my cooking pictures I take but I'm old so I dont have instagram or snapchat and I want to not be insane so I dont have Facebook anymore.

GOOD LUCK FORUMS
