A few years ago, I took the Chicago Architecture Week / Open House Chicago tour of the Frank LLoyd Wright-designed SC Johnson headquarters in Racine and our motorcoach had a planned stop at O&H on the way back. I am 99.9% positive I ate the entire kringle in my hotel room over the few days of my stay. I may have even bought and ate two. I'd have to consult my FB albums to jog my memory.
Kalboz , for how much does TJ's sell them?

I believe it was $7.99 per each at our South Coast Metro Trader Joe's!

How much practice do you need to make crustless PB&J sandwiches? You can do anything from simply slice off the crusts to using various "sandwich" tools that will do it for you.

A peanut butter and jelly while you are busy preparing a whole turkey dinner? Teamwork! Does he ever make any of his own food?
I hope this kid grows up to find a woman who is willing to hand feed him and prepare every bit of food he eats. Living on his own might be a problem.

I just found out about “dream bars” today. It has been pretty stressful at home since I woke up to the shouting and ranting of the next door neighbour who has absconded from the Mental Asylum where she is supposed to be right now. The neighbour above her has given her refuge, and until the police return with an entry warrant they cannot go in to collect her. She has been verbally assailing and harassing every passer by since 8am from an open window. She trained as an actress and, boy, can she project her voice!
So, comfort food. But I was too nervous to leave the house and get supplies so I used what was to hand:
The last of the butter (about a tablespoon), Demerara sugar and golden syrup. Heated together, tipped into this two kinds of oats and some desiccated coconut. Mixed and placed into a parchment lined tray - basically a giant “flapjack”. On top of this I spread a combination of 1 x penguin bar, 1 x tunnocks bar (chocolate wafer & caramel), 1 x Cadbury’s cream egg - all of which I sliced and hacked into bitty pieces along with some chocolate chips, mini marshmallows and malted cornflake crumbs (leftover from a modified Cristina Tosi recipe). Final touch was a generous drizzle of condensed milk and baked at 175C (345F) for around 20 minutes then cooled.
REALLY junky! But delicious.

And that is a very "creative" snack that you threw together. lol. I love that you managed to find use for a Cadbury egg although I am wondering why you still have any around.

Cadburys cream eggs were on sale for about 10p after Easter and I picked some up so my daughter wouldn’t be denied the childhood rite of passage involved in actually eating them. She managed one. The others have been in her candy box, untouched, ever since. Until today! McDonalds occasionally puts mashed up cream eggs in their Flurrys, that’s about the only way it is possible to ingest them without then battling the urge to puke. My husband has taken them to Japan to a gathering of former colleagues, eating them is a challenge that makes a bush tucker trial seem tame. This one was laid to rest with dignity in its dream bar flapjack coffin.
