Laura’s tip of the day
Tin Foil. Use it to store your cheese block in after it’s been opened. It works sooo much better than saran wrap or ziploc bags or whatever. Plastic (ie Saran wrap or ziplocs) trap and/or create moisture, which sucks for cheese. We’ve been doing this for a bit and for some reason has come up in conversation a few times in the last couple of days so I thought I’d tell everyone that yes, I use tin foil on my cheese. And it’s something you should convert to. So there you have it folks. It’s out there.

And you will like it! lol I will blog more about our trip this past weekend to Fairmont, BC but right now I have to figure out how I’m going to share all the pictures I want to share…. But I will say that this past weekend was just what we needed. It was beautiful. Relaxing. Completely carefree. We didn’t think or worry about work…

Thanksgiving Sunday
So it’s Sunday…Thanksgiving to be exact. And I’m in Alberta. It’s going to be different. This time last year I was cooking up a storm for J, Mom, Greg, and Elaine. This year I cooked up a storm for Tanya and friends. I didn’t do much baking because Tanya was baking a lot but I couldn’t do nothing. So I baked some homemade pull-apart rolls. Cranberry sauce. Caramilk Fudge. And Snickerdoodles. I’ll post my rolls recipe soon enough. I also brought with me some of Nan’s pickles and the chow I made last year. So I definitely didn’t come empty handed. I also made Gram’s stuffing this morning and did…
