I have two out of three (we agreed to a couple extras) crafts completed. I had to start over on the third project because the first attempt was larger than I could manage in a reasonable amount of time…I like how that’s going.
OOOOOOOH I just figured out what I’m going to craft and I am SO excited about it. It’s going to be wiccad.
My girls are turning 3 this weekend (), so I probably won’t get much crafting done but I have a plan!
I’ve never had or even heard of Palmers. I guess it’s pretty bad?
you may recognize some of the “chocolate” they make, they do a lot of holiday themed candy but it’s not real chocolate as defined by the food and drug administration. it doesn’t have any cocoa butter in it. just vegetable oil oil and cocoa powder
This is an example of the ingredient list on one of their chocolate “novelty” bunnies:
Sugar, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Palm Kernel, Pal Soybean and/or Cottonseed), Whey, Crisp Rice (Rice, Sugar, Salt, Malt), Cocoa, Lactose, Skim Milk, Milk, Soy Lecithin (an Emulsifier), Vanillin (an Artificial Flavor), U.S. Certified Colors
I had to laugh at how in-depth you got on this. Someone knows her chocolates.
All of my books are here! But, I didn’t get to the store to exchange a supply item (I think it’s too big). And, I left work too late to stop for the chocolate. I can exchange the item on Sunday (if it really is too big), and pick up the chocolate on Monday (I think they’re open). Depending on the time, I may still make it to the PO on time, but I might have to delay until Thursday. This weekend is a full court press with the end of the term and the transition to a hybrid model with mostly all new students on Monday. Good thing I work well under pressure!
Still crafting… made some progress today and hope to make even more tomorrow! It would be awesome if I could ship on Monday!!
Ah, yes, I recognize those holiday ones now. The stuff that you ate when you were a kid, but as an adult you’re like “Wow, this is disgusting”
What is the book about?
Thank you for summarizing it for me!
we have 10 days left, right? (just reassuring myself, mainly)
good luck with the school transition days!
We do! I needed the reassurance myself! I didn’t get nearly as much done today as I needed to. I did exchange the supply item, but that’s about it.
As for the transition to hybrid, I guess I’m as ready as I can be!
I’m getting close!!
I’m done crafting! Books are locked down. I just need to hunt down some good chocolate and I’ll be ready to send.
I think I finished this morning. Will try to send this week. Eeek! Exciting!
Let’s check in! We have about a week and a half left until send outs. How is everyone’s crafting and collecting going?
Aaack!! Book still hasn’t arrived! They’re saying I should have it by the 12th. That still gives me time, but, it’s a lot longer than they said it would take…don’t know if it’s their fault or the post office…trying to hold off the panic until the 12th.
I had planned on getting chocolate at the last minute, but, I was near the place I was planning on getting it from yesterday and decided to go in and check…good thing I did, they didn’t have what I was planning on getting and no one seemed to know if they were just out or not carrying it anymore .
I have another idea of where I might be able to get it, though.
Have a couple of chocolate ideas and hoping to get out today to check on them…
Chocolate and books are ready to go! I finished my craft last night, but I’m not entirely pleased with how it turned out, so I’m trying it again in a different color to see if that makes a difference.
