Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day which means that today, at least at our house was Fudge Day.
At least twice a year, for very special occasions, like Christmas or Thanksgiving, my wonder spouse makes fudge. And not just any old fudge. This fudge is made from his mother's recipe with a few tweaks of his own. He makes some with nuts and some without using dark chocolate cocoa powder and many other secret ingredients.
It is delicious and extremely addictive. Remember the old ad "You can't eat just one?" It's true.
My primary job this morning was to clean the bowl and spoon after the fudge was poured into flat glass dishes to cool and harden. It was a messy job but somebody had to do it. Yummy.
I also leant a hand cleaning up a little boil over on the stove and a little sugar on the floor. Both signs of lots of productive activity.
Tomorrow we will pack up the fudge, as well as some ham, an apple pie and real whipped cream (our contributions to the feast) and travel 20 miles to our son's house where we will indulge unashamedly in an eating orgy.
But we will also remember to be thankful for all the blessings in our lives. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Have a blessed day.
