Xmas bells are ringing in the distance. And the end grows nigh. Not because of the new year, mainly because I'm going to attempt The Fudge recipe again. Someone dear wrote and sent it to me three years ago. I attempt it every year but, darn it, I can't read the handwriting for the life of me. It reads differently every time. Here is how it reads tonight. Enjoy. And if this blows up the planet... I'm sorry, Mom.

Listening to "A Pale Horse Named Death" for about the fourth time this evening. "I ride a metal horse."
I can't imagine where you are going wrong...So uh, what you gonna do with the 72 pounds of fudgey failure from '08 & '09?
Merry Christmas to you and back at you for the love & support! :)
Charles ~Ha! It's addicting! I had a feeling you'd enjoy it. I think a couple people would. Merry Christmas!
Harry! 08 &09 turned out perfect. ;-) What I did was get another recipe and figured out:
eloped musk = evaped Milk
Croak = cloak= cover?
Beetles =butter.
chirps= chips.
ox= oz.
"Pet sappy dear" = still have no idea
This gives me a good laugh every year. And turns out pretty good. ;-) Merry Christmas!
Oh do send a # my way Jodes!
Happy New Year!
Sure thang. Happy New Year, Mike S!
OK, I tried this. I found the eloped musk gave the fudge a gamey odour, but whatever works. My beepings honked alright, but I had a hard time panning the antlers, gently or otherwise. I couldn't find cubed beetles, so I just tossed in a handful of loose ones.
I can't tell you how it turned out because I absolutely refuse to croak.
Doesn't 'pet sappy deer' mean 'let stand for one hour or until firm, slice, then refrigerate'? Though that might work better after 'pour into pan'.
Excellent recipe, and really not that far off on the translation/interpretation. One thing I should point out, the “?” after Chicken should be a “!”. It makes all the difference in the world, trust me. I also find that gerbils work better than mice, as their fur is less coarse. There is one other thing you should know about this recipe, but I can’t tell you – you’ll understand why if you re-read the second to last line…
Laurita ~ panning the antlers is tough, and I'm so glad yuo didn't croak or kick the goat. Hugs, girl. Happy New Years!
Sean~ Now what dictoinary did you find that in, Mister. I bet it was on the black market. ;-)
Anonymous ~Nuts! HAHAHAHA. ;-)
I will take 3lbs to go, please-
Happy Holidays, Jodi. You are a genuine comrade to so many, and I hope your stocking is fat and jolly. If not, maybe you at least had fun being naughty.
Cheers!
Hee! I crushed peppermint canes and added it to the mix. Tastes good! 3# for you! And thanks Erin. My stocking is full of good things (I hope). And thanks for all yuor support this year. You are a great person and writer. Happy Holidays! <3
Yum.
Have a great holiday, Jodi!!
You too, Ant!
Hey Jodi. Made some earlier and re-tiled my bathroom using it for the adhesive! :-)
Have a fantastic Christmas and all the very best for 2011.
Pssst...I nominated your Halloween story as my favourite story of 2010 for Michael Solender's New Years bash. x
Heee, very craetive idea, David. I need to retile my kitchen, perhaps 36lbs of this will do teh job?
Merry Christmas, my friend (and Im so honored!!! Thank yuo!)
