I tried again and now I'm done. I really wanted homemade licorice. This time I had all of the correct ingredients and gave it another go.
I didn't use black food coloring, so it doesn't look very licorice like. It doesn't taste very licorice like either. I'm done. It was a different recipe, but same results. I even used extra ainse to no avail. Live and learn. Leave licorice to the professionals.
Other than that it was a quiet weekend. I met a friend for hot yoga. I really enjoy yoga and have been diligent for over a year. My reward is to go to an actual hot yoga class. After class we enjoyed a cup of coffee and a visit. I know, hot yoga hot coffee? It is winter.Maybe I'll have something interesting next week. We got a bunch of snow and I planned to go sledding today but the road melted off. That is NOT a complaint.Are you also struggling with winter doldrums? Any advice?
We worked in the yard today it was so nice (very weird for Feb!) Too bad about the licorice. I was ready for some good yummy stuff. The only thing I know as far as doldrums is the natural light light bulbs help with SAD.
ReplyDeleteYour skies are wonderful. What colors there are. Aw too bad, I was hoping it would turn out and be the best you ever tasted. We hit 90 on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteNo, I am not ready for warm or spring for that matter.
I want just a bit more winter. All of the pear trees are in full bloom.
Though, I admit to being outside more than I was inside. I hope you have a lovely week.
this was great!! i have never made licorice, but i am fine with what they sell in stores. sometimes store bought is better!! the skies are gorgeous, winter has been providing some beautiful skies!!
ReplyDeleteI looked up a recipe and was surprised to note that there was no liquorice in the lost of ingredients.
