I ended up using 16 of the 24 little jars; garlic sauce, spinach dip, onion dip, spiced nuts, all neatly stored in grab and go containers. Precisely arranged glass jars bring joy.
I had to make the cheesecake bites one more time so that I could test making a straight lemon bite and a lemon/blueberry one. As if they’d turn out badly. I might make a batch of gingerbread cookies to grind into crumbs for the bases. What flavour of filling would you pair with the gingerbread? I was thinking vanilla or is that too old-school?
We got another 10 or more cm of snow last night… it’s up to my knees now. Carm did the usual snowblower wrangling, while I sashayed with the shovel in one hand and the hammer in the other… when I hit the first nail with the shovel I knew I couldn’t put off hammering in those little suckers anymore. I was finished by 1:30 or so and by the end of the day much of the deck was dry. We might be getting temps above freezing tomorrow which is a big piss off as it will wreck our beautiful snow.
