I just spent about 2 hours in search of fresh mint, as well as doing other grocery shopping. The only things I forgot were toothpicks and laundry detergent, so I think I made out pretty well, other than the mint thing. I just can't understand it. I guess when I wake up I'll make some phone calls, some store has got to carry it.
Ana and Audrie's party is tonight so I figured I'd make some hor d'ouerves (sp?!?). I've already made the sweets- Butterscotch Crunches I call them. My Grammy makes them every year during holidays and our family can't get enough. One Christmas she didn't make them and I thought there was going to be throwdown right in the kitchen. And they're great not only because they taste yummy, but also because they're super easy to make. They only require two ingredients- butterscotch chips and corn flakes. Hah!
The other two things I am making are Dolmas (this is where the mint comes in) and Spicy Tortilla wraps. Contrary to popular belief and my own verbal denial, I can actually cook. I'm not a natural at it, but give me a recipe and a reason and I'm on it.
Anyway, time for bed.
