Sea Foam Candy

I have recently gotten into baking.  Today was a rainy downer of a day (What's new in Washington State?) so I decided what better to try and make some Sea Foam Candy.  My mom and Grandpa LOVE Sea Foam Candy... I didn't think it'd be too hard, so I figured why not and try.  I think they turned out pretty good.  If you're interested I used this recipe:

So awful out.  Disappointing.




It was getting realllly hot.  I was getting nervous and couldn't hold the thermometer anymore because the steam was hurting too badly.

When you add the baking soda the whole pot just starts to boil and foam like an animal with rabies. 

Breaking everything up was really messy, but sort of fun.  I just took a knife to it... if you end up making Sea Foam I would suggest looking for a better method.

Mmmmmm, I love LOVE love chocolate <3  They are currently hardening, so I haven't tried the finished project, but I've got high hopes.

And to end it a picture of The Boyfriend with Charlie.  He wouldn't wake up and Charlie wanted to play.  Rude.

sippin' on some syzzurup

I've been drinking tonight.  It wasn't one of those "I want to get so wasted I can't remember anything" nights, but a "Let's have a relaxing drink outside while having a much needed talk with The Boyfriend night".  I loved it.  A change, which is what I've been craving.  It made me fall in love all over again.  He's a good man.

About me

I guess all new blogs must have an about me.  Let's make it short and sweet.

I'm 21.  I have a BA in Health Science with a minor in photography.  I love the human body in all it's forms and could take photos of nothing forever.  I hope you find something useful within this blog.  Possibly inspiration.  Disgust.  Jealously.  Or just something that will have you thinking.
