Might be a record for the least burns for us! Wow!... when you add the peppermint, it sure will clear the sinuses! Nancy thinks we should try doing some in strawberry flavor next year... we'll see....next year, 1st order of business will be to test the thermometer and be sure it is correct... they were just a tad soft this time. ( still a little pliable after cooling) but they taste great!
Such a marvelous family activity! The sweet memory of making candy canes together will bring a smile to their hearts for many decades.

I heartily agree!
In our family, baking lefse and making a variety of Scandanavian candies and such were a steadfast tradition that was always yummy, happy, and memorable.

Mark,

Here's how I added the RVM seal below my user name --

First save the RVM seal to your photos file, then click on User CP in the upper left corner of this page. Then in the left column click on Edit Avitar. Next scroll down and select Use Custom Avatar. Then follow the prompts there.

I believe you have to be an IRV2 supporter to be able to add a custom avatar, but I wouldn't swear to it. If you need help contac Dennis, aka Possum, aka AKA Cletus. He changes avatars and user names monthly.

Oh good grief! Now you've done it!

That last pic is fascinating. Good eye !

I'm glad you've been to the Center of the World, because, as you may know, 7 miles from our hill is Philo, IL, official Center of the Universe. Says so right up there on the water tower.

So: we bank at the center of the universe, eat lunch there sometimes, stop at the post office -- all at the center of the universe. Cool, eh?

You guys rock!

Thank you to all. Merry Christmas.
I got the email welcoming you to the group. Previously I looked you up on QRZ.com and replied to Pat##*% instead of just Pat. How was I supposed to know.

So, Pat A. welcome to the group. Don't forget to send me an email via the other means of communications asking for my theme song.

KE5QG sends.
