Popcorn with Peanut Butter Gooey
I invited Patricia to come up and help me make the treat to share with her family on her birthday. She helped butter a cake pan and added chocolate sprinkles to the mix of popcorn and peanut butter fudge that we hoped to make cake shaped. The bottom layer held form, but when we added another layer both layers tended to collapse. I found a candle shaped like the number 4 in my candle container and mounted it on a small bamboo skewer so we could place it on the mound of popcorn. Patricia was delighted with the doll I made for her. I had fixed a very tasty meal by slicing some lean beef and adding slices of beef fat, then sauteing both just to medium rare, but all the popcorn loaded with fudge was tempting so I ate a bowl of Greek yogurt and cream with strawberry drink flavoring. Most of the rest of the day was spent in working on storage for my encaustics supplies. I accomplished this by combining several drawers of glass shards after mending the support for one of them. This left me with two long spaces to store mediums, paints, wax and other supplies including the griddle and the heat gun. This evening my ketone level was still stuck at .4 but my blood glucose had leveled down to 87. Tomorrow after going to the temple I will stop by Walmart for bread, Bousin cheese, a cucumber or two and candy to hand out to children who come by the house for Halloween. I have one picture ready for the Library exhibit intake on Saturday but I need to complete another. I don't believe I can finish the portrait of Marge in that much time so I plan to execute my original conception of a blizzard which I planned before I got caught up in making everything excellent as far as completing plans to do encaustic.
