I made my Orange Chocolate fudge
this morning and it is setting in
the fridge:
Below is the (obviously)
well used:)))) recipe

Friendship Christmas Fudge
never fail recipe
above;;;;;;
{using white chocolate bits,
dried cranberries, freshly
zested orange rind, and
I used sliced almonds
this time...}
So I can check these off my
list for Christmas preps
;))))
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
AND...
While I was putting the fudges
together, I put two trays of
diced, stale bread crusts
dotted with olive oil and
spices to make our next
batch of croutons.
I cannot see throwing crusts away that we
really don't eat that much!!
Instead I save them in the fridge and
dice them up right before
baking...
They take about 1&1/2 hrs
at 225 degrees---
stirred about
once halfway
through....
(don't stint on the good olive oil!!)
And now they will be savored on salads
and on Tom's soups--he is going
to make Canadian yellow
pea soup tomorrow for us...
What a guy👴
👄👫😗
*******************
I hope you are all making headway
with your preparations for the
big day...or if you don't do holidays,
are just enjoying this little respite from
the bitter cold today...
Hugs, Julierose,
