Hi folks! It's time for another round of Life is Funny. Is your life funny? Of course it is! So feel free to join in below!
Way back in the day, when my folks were newlyweds, my mom wanted to make a special treat.
She decided on fudge. Who doesn't love soft, creamy fudge, right? She hadn't made fudge before, but how hard could it be? So she went to the kitchen and worked her magic.
Yes, magic.
She managed to turn what should be soft and creamy into a substance that ranks on the hardness scale right below diamonds.
It couldn't be cut.
It couldn't be chiseled.
They had to throw the pan away.
I'm not really sure why, but my mom hasn't made fudge since then...
Newlywed cooking makes life funny.

I probably woulda licked the pan. I doubt there is any such thing as bad fudge. ;) My newlywed cooking (the first time around) consisted of mac and chees and hamburger helper. I lived and learned and married a GREAT cook the second time. ;)
Ummm... is it bad that my husband does almost all of the cooking? My family likes to make fun of me a lot. They say I can't cook or that I never cook - neither of which is true. I just don't enjoy it as much as he does, so I try to get out of it whenever I can. Who wouldn't?
90% of my blog is about how funny my life is
;o)
Loving your blog!

Now why'd she go and throw it out? Surely it would have come in handy when your dad did something to deserve a gook whack in the head. Nothing like a pan of fudge to teach him a lesson!
Oh but my darling sister, your memory is failing you! There was one more attempt at the illusive fudge!!! Don't you remember? Even putting the tar like substance in the freezer didn't achieve a consistancy firm enough to cut!
Hehehe... we are sooo out of the will!
Wow, she had to throw the pan away? My chocoholic PMS tendencies would have found a way to break into it!
