Morning dolly — all
Spending time at a family brunch today. It’s an hour plus away and have a cousin to pick up along the way. Always lots of laughs in a family that chooses to laugh at problems rather than cry. Prayers please for good health, wealth and true joy in this wonderful Christian family. My aunt is more like a cousin to me and her children and their family nieces and nephews.

Have a great time HM!

I’m going to be offline much of the day today and tomorrow.
Today (and perhaps tomorrow afternoon) is the weekend my sister and I do our “Marathon Baking/Candy Making Weekend”.

We have a breakfast/brunch and gift exchange on the south end tomorrow morning with some girlfriends - have been friends for many years. Then we drive up north of Seattle to my cousin’s daughter’s lunch and cookie/bar/candy exchange.

I made Rocky Road yesterday (just need to put 10 plates together) - really easy recipe and my nephew and BIL love it. I doubled the recipe for tomorrow wrt the chocolate, though didn’t double the amount of nuts and marshmallows - just added them until it looked about right and used a 9x12 Pyrex casserole.

4 - 4-1/2 oz milk chocolate bars (I use Hersheys - 4.4oz)
3 cups mini marshmallows
3/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts (I don’t always use the full amount)

Partially melt chocolate bars over hot water (I normally melt them almost all the way).
Remove from heat
Beat smooth
Stir in marshmallows and nuts
Spread in buttered 8x8x2 in pan
Chill
Cut when firm
