I Dislike Licorice but I Love Allsorts

What’s your favorite candy?

I don’t know if ‘dislike’ is strong enough to describe how much I don’t like licorice. My mother loved black licorice and I have a friend who adores the strongest and saltiest licorice she can find. When I travelled to Amsterdam she wanted me to bring back licorice for her.

Strangely though I really like licorice Allsorts. How is that possible? Between all the layers of colourful sweetness lies black licorice.

Candy is never at the top of my list of favourite foods. I can take it or leave it but if you put Licorice Allsorts in front of me I will always take it.

The Joy of Cooking and Baking in my New Kitchen

…with more storage and counter space

I’m still putting away supplies, dishes and accessories from our old kitchen but much of it was given away, donated to a thrift shop or thrown away. We have a second kitchen in the basement and some of the supplies that we don’t use every day will stay down there until we need them.

On Sunday I had an itch to cook and bake. As many of you know, my husband does most of the cooking in this house. He gets so much pleasure working in the kitchen and now in his new space his pleasure has doubled.

I love making soup and made a large pot of chicken vegetable soup. While the soup simmered I made a batch of lemon cranberry muffins. When I was gathering up supplies for the kitchen I came across a recipe that my sister, Chris, typed up for me awhile ago.

Both recipes were delicious and we enjoyed them for the next three days and there is still enough soup left over for another meal.
