She will offer you bribes, make all kinds of promises and next thing you know - down the hole you go LOLHeeding Sharon's advice, I deduce that if I'm gonna join the fun folks, in the hole . . . I should first wait for the offer of bribes and promises.
Fellow SSSNewbies, who's with me? I say we hold out for the best bribes and promises, we can get! May as well go in style, if we're gonna fall anyway!

(It is nt necessary to constantly stir the mixture while boiling to desired temperature) When the mixture reaches 300, stir in the baking soda, just until dissolved. Adding the baking soda will cause the mixture to double in size. Pour the mixture into a buttered 9x9" pan. DO NOT SCRAPE THE SIDE OF THE SAUCEPAN AND DON'T SPREAD THE MIXTURER AROUND IN THE PAN. Let cool. Loosen mixture from pan and cut into bite size pieces. The pieces will break apart into different shapes and sizes, this is just fine. Melt the chocolate for dipping. Dip pieces of candy in chocolate and let set on waxed paper. When set, store in an airtight container.
This is the recipe for the fairy food, angel food candy, sponge candy.

I had to cancel the lung transplant I was on a list for because I don't have 4 weeks to be away from home. Prayers gratefully accepted!! and tons of fun and giggles too.
Praying for you...
