I went to pick up my ticket today, and Amtrak charged me for it! So, I called CO and they told me I couldn't pick it up until tomorrow (day of flight), so I have togo back and get a refund! Duh! I am so stoooopid! Still, at least I can go back tomorrow, pick up a new ticket, check in and all will be OK. I hope! |

I may have just made the worlds best pecan caramel.
It is not syrup, but not sure agave nectar is going to set right. I cooked it down for 73 minutes stirring non stop, well except answering a phone call. it better be worth it, whisking for 73 minutes has me exhausted! |

Do you use a candy thermometer?
it set in water properly, but is a bit liquid at prep now. if it cooks to fast it burns BAD. candy therm is good for sugar :) |

yes, but it doesn't do any good for agave nectar, as it has to cook the water down before it will set. I gave up after 40 minutes at softball temp.

I don't think I've ever had praline, either!
If you have some spare, bring it to the Palm and we can do a taste test!

Sort of, but not as firm. Also pecans, not peanuts.
They're very popular in New Orleans. http://www.auntsallys.com/pages2008/...s.html?cat=100

I'm enjoying Amazing Race tonight because so many things look familiar to me from SGN and a couple of places were close to my hotel (not that I ever went to these places, just drove by several times).

Wow...not much notice there. That's crappy. I hate eating in a restaurant when the staff is cleaning up all around you. Not that I expected much better at the Chili's Too at MCO. But it sucks. Was in the PC talking with a good friend and she said they have been spending the last two months learning about *A admittance. She seems to think that there will be a lot of people in the lounges soon. Should be interesting! I heard that CO had a great ceremony for WWII veterans at IAH yesterday and then had Rome flight issues and made the club at E very busy! Had a great night last night. Sorry I didn't stay longer but wanted to explore the fun of gay clubs in Houston! I don't want to go to work tomorrow or for any length of time right now. UGH! Have a great week everyone. |

B. I agree with the sentiment above. |
I will have to make more for Palm DO, will be a bit long and dry by then :)
I guess I could make some now and freeze them. Now, this is the sugar free 'pralines' in the form. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2558/...55265f7ede.jpg I have to say, this is my first foray into candy with agave nectar, I know a few things now. Agave nectar caramel, is FAR better than sugar caramel, so SMOOTH so clean tasting, wow it is wonderful. Of course at $5 just for the bottle of agave nectar, compared to about .50 in sugar, it is not a cheap thing! |
