Son K recently asked/bugged me to make some cookies. I found an old recipe for oatmeal chocolate chip cookies which called for brown sugar. It would be the perfect opportunity to use up some hardened brown sugar I had stored in a spaghetti jar. I googled and found a neat way to soften it. It said to put a moistened paper towel in the jar with the hardened sugar and microwave in bursts of 20 seconds. In between bursts you break up the softening sugar. The good news is that it worked and I was able to use up the old sugar. Lost without the internet, that would be me!
Husband M and I went with some friends to the Donny and Marie Christmas show currently playing in Toronto. They are pros, Marie was beautifully dressed and we had a good time. Well, except traffic was so bad that night we were 20 minutes late for the show. I've never been late for a show before.
