Yesterday, after talk on a message board about sweetened condensed milk I had a craving for seven layer bars. The only thing I could do was make them. Oh so delicious. They are great with coffee or tea. A nap should follow.
Today I am slow cooking this Roman (as in it comes from Rome but it isn't ancient...though it could be. who knows) chicken dish. It makes the house smell rather nice. Garlic and white wine are involved.
I am also making ice cream. It is a bit of an experiment but I think it will turn out well. It is coffee ice cream with streaks of nutella. Because of the amount of milk/cream the flavor makes me think of cappuccino.
Lastly I need to make a cake. I have some egg whites about so I am thinking of making angel food cake.

I have this yen to make pasta. But I might hold off on that for a bit.

That all sounds delicious, as usual. The ice cream is brilliant!

I should pass along the recipe for homemmade Twix bars- it's so midwestern and awesome.
The crust/innards are bascially Club crackers.

I started to yen so I counted to ten

Holy crap I do love seven layer bars. If the chicken comes out well, please post the recipe!

My mother used to put sweetened condensed milk on my pacifier.Now I cant have a can of it in the house or I will eat it all in one sitting.

God, that ice cream sounds nice. And I have no idea what 7 layer bars are, but boy, they sound good too. It is a very good thing you do not live nearby me.
