Sorbetto Italian Ice

                        I came across the most amazing stuff in the freezer section at the signature Kroger not too far from us! This stuff makes you want to sit and eat the entire container and you don't want to stop! Sorbetto Italian Ice... the lemon flavor causes serious heartburn.. the black cherry flavor isn't too bad as long as you don't mind the skins.. and there is a LOT of skins in that container!

The strawberry is our favorite flavor so far. This stuff is amazing.. however, my hands were freezing because I would just eat from the container while watching American Idol.. I tried wrapping a paper towel around the container, but that didn't work either.. so I created the pint size ice cream wrap. It is insulated to help protect your hands from being frozen while you are still able to enjoy your yummy treat!

                                                                                                  

Peanut Brittle

I decided that I needed to try my hand at candy making today.  I grew up in a little town where on certain days you knew it was time for the local Penecostal church to make the most fantastic peanut brittle.  Our long time family friend made it every time and then would bring by fresh candy for Grannie Shirley to purchase.  I would always eat around the nuts and I remember that being the best brittle ever.  Well, it's easier to buy that bag of brittle than make it!  It did taste okay, just not as good as I remember it when I was growing up.
