Week 3 Bake Mas Wrap Up

Alright y’all, we are in week 3 the final week of Bake Mas. 

Monday
Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies
I used the same recipe on a box of oatmeal as last week except I used cranberries instead of chocolate chips. And I prepped it to be frozen and baked later. This is the perfect solution for those of us who are so busy we barely have time to breathe. You can put this dough together and bake it off later. 

First, prepare the dough as the directions say. Then freeze this dough you have to wrap it up in either parchment paper (or waxed) or plastic wrap. Then place it in a storage bag after you have written on the bag what it is and the date you placed in the freezer. It helps to write on the bag the temp and time to bake the cookies. This way you don’t have to go searching for the recipe. 



Tuesday
Inheritance Fudge
I decided to rename this fudge Inheritance Fudge because it was inherited. And I do enjoy making it every year if only to watch my daughter go for the beater. 

Inheritance Fudge
2 sticks of butter or 1 cup
⅔ cup of evaporated milk
4 cups of sugar
1 bag of chocolate morsels (or morsels of your choice)
7 oz. marshmallow fluff
1 tsp. Vanilla

Put butter, sugar, and milk in a heavy bottom pot. Heat till it hits a rolling boil.*  Stir for 5 minutes. 
In a bowl place fluff and morsels.** After the mixture of butter, sugar, and milk have boiled for 5 minutes, add it to the bowl. Mix until there is no trace of fluff. Then add vanilla then stir a little more. Pour into pans. Let it cool overnight if possible.


*Rolling boil is a boil you can’t stir down.
**If you use peanut butter morsels add a cup of peanut butter. 


Final Day and Final Video

Alright, y’all, it has been a long three weeks of various projects and I have disturbed one bag already. Next year I hope to have more people involved. Don’t forget January 1 starts Jar It Up January and it was awesome last year and this year has the potential to be even better. Enjoy the video! From my family to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I will see you after New Year’s Day.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
