I adore caramels

[aryanhwy]

They've always been one of my favorite candies. I had to give up some things (like bubblegum and whistling) for the eight years I had braces, but not caramels (the trick is to suck on them until they disintegrate, without chewing). Theoretically it must be possible to get caramels in the Netherlands, because I've seen recipes for carameled apples, but I haven't yet been able to find any.

So here's a big thank you to tedeisenstein for bringing me caramels -- three bags of them. I've just had two. And now I'll exercise all my willpower not to eat the rest of the open bag, since ostensibly I asked him to bring them because it's apple season and I really want to have carameled apples.

I like caramels SOOOO much that I make them once in a while and eat most of the whole batch. Don't tell my endocrinologist. (I once ran out of Karo syrup so substituted honey - it's now a permanent part of the recipe.)

And you're gonna share that recipe with me, right? :)

Man, that guy is awesome. Is there anything he -can't- do?!

[tedeisenstein.livejournal.com]

Quite a bit, actually. I won't bore you with everything that's gone wrong on this trip, but if I could indeed do everything, I'd be a lot calmer, happier, and less stressed-out.

But thanks for the compliment, in any case.

Ooooh, I haven't had caramels in forever!

I first read that as "I adore camels" and had to take a second glance as that seemed a highly unlikely thing for you to have said :)

Yeah. I have nothing against camels, but they aren't quite in the "adorable" rank.

Escusi! Please to repeat!?! La Senora 'as *obviously* not yet met the right Camels!

I read "I adore camels" the first time, too, & thought you to be even more refined & estimable than I usually do, Sister dear! : )
