Oh, I’m not upset. No, no. Not at all.
I just cannot stop thinking about fudge.
You see I was supposed to be going to a Christmas Craft Show on the weekend, but due to circumstances beyond my control it didn’t happen.
That means, that besides all the cool unique crafts and handmade stuff that I missed out on, I also didn’t get to buy fudge from some of the amazing fudge making folks that tend to frequent the Christmas Craft Show circuit.
*sigh*
I will also be missing another local Christmas Craft Show next weekend.
*siiiiiigggghhhh*
It’s not like I need fudge. I mean, really. Does anyone need fudge? No. Of course not.
But!
Oh man!
Christmas Craft Show fudge is so good!
I could just make some fudge, I suppose.
I can never make it the way the super fudge makers make it, though.
It’s just not the same.
I have a decent recipe. A few, even.
There are plenty of recipes online.
There is no shortage of recipes, really.
There is merely a shortage of fudge.
I should just forget about it.
But I can’t.
Because FUDGE!
Help me to feel less kooky.
Is there a treat-y food that you have very rarely, but that when you do have it it has to be made a certain way? Or come from a certain place?
Do you like fudge?
(Do you have some? Because seriously, I have needs!)
Feel free to share a recipe or your thoughts on fudge in the comments.
I will share my best fudge recipe here with you all another day, but have you seen this*?
Have mercy!
*A very funny tweep – @evilpez4 – shared that and will be blamed in absentia for any and all fudge related weight gain this upcoming Holiday season.
You had to say fudge didn’t you? hehe! Tonight I want to eat all of the chocolate in the fridge and the cupboard. Can you say addict?
Well, in your defence…
CHOCOLATE!!!
And I still want fudge.
I would like to try and make fudge. That is my goal.
This is a good goal! π
I approve.
Do you have an old recipe or a favourite one?
I haven’t looked yet to be honest, it’s on my bucket list. Yes I know how funny that sounds.
I don’t think that sounds funny! I think it sounds FUN! Not everyone is obsessed with fudge as I am, I realize.
I think fudge is one of the very first things I ever learned to make on the stove when I was a kid.
Now that I think about it, this explains so much. π
I went to Xmas at the Forum last weekend & the line was really long for fudge, so I told myself I would come back around. Alas, I forgot. i admit to getting a piece when I go to Pete’s Frootique
Oh no!!! You missed the fudge, too? That’s tragic! You were *right* there!!
How was the show, otherwise?
Love the stuff but am resisting right now, too many eating overboard opportunities righ atound the corner. I am going to resist as long as I can.. Lol
Me too, apparently, whether I want to or not. π
I figure I will make something amazing for Christmas and keep only a teeny bit and gift the rest. I have to have a game plan going in.
You know, just like that old saying…
“Fail to fudge, fudge to fail.”
Or something like that. π
Was enjoying reading your post (though I’m sorry your missed the craft show and will miss another one) and was proud of myself for not even craving fudge. Proud until I clicked on the link…TOBLERONE!!!!
Blame @evilpez4!!! (Poor Andy. He has no idea he’s to blame!) π
I am sorry I missed the show, too. It was the 37th year. Isn’t that something? I love traditions that are long standing, especially when it comes to holiday traditions.
I’m hoping that perhaps I’ll stumble upon a new-to-me Christmas Craft Show and get to enjoy that – and its fudge. π
I love Fudge. I love making fudge and eating fudge. I’m sure my boys will love that you posted this and I will have to make fudge. I will have to make it on a day I know they are all here and will eat it with me? or maybe I will use a larger pan so it’s thinner? I like maple or brownsugar fudge but i’ve also tried and succeeded in making some chocolates. Nothing though beats the fudge from Upper Clements Park for creaminess! OMG so melt in your Mouth Creamy.
I love Fudge, too!
It’s so good to be understood. π Thank you.
Upper Clements Park, ehhhh? I wonder if they are open today… No. No. That would be wrong.
But now I know, so, you know it’s gonna happen sooner or later. π
sooner or later
Or, you know, sooner…
….you had me at fudge…..
π
I hate to tell you this, but I have fudge from Pete’s in the house… and you just made me go eat some.
I honestly read this first, ate the fudge, then commented. #Priorities
hahaha I love that.
Laura is the cutest! π She totally has her priorities straight!
Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha!
We were destined to be friends, weren’t we? π
I laughed out lout at #priorities. *snorks*
Hah!
Hee hee! And people think Iβm being silly when I talk about Peady Powers! They are strong!! π
Yu-ummmm. One time, in undergrad, my roommate made a huge tray of fudge and it’s all I ate for two days. (Don’t tell my mom.)
Also, the Halifax Crafters Society Winter Craft Fair is coming up soon. Don’t miss that one! http://www.halifaxcrafters.ca/
Right? So good!
That is hilarious! When I was in university, my amazing Mamma would send the best (most ridiculously taped!!) care packages and there would always be Co-Op brand sour cream and onion chips. My NS BFF, another pal and I would live off those. I already told my Mom, though. She was not at all surprised. π
Oh! A new-to-me craft fair!! Thank you! I will check that out. Thank you very much for including the link. That was very kind. π
You’ve never been? It’s fantastic but always super busy. You’ve been warned! lol
I have never been. I have just been scoping out all their social media profiles and looking at the vendors and goodies and oh my goodness!! Now I want to go!
Warned and enticed at once! You *are* good!
