I’ve had one of the best weekends ever. A weekend where we had no obligations. Just had two days of do-whatever-we-want. Yesterday, I made homemade chicken noodle soup. Today, I made a new granola recipe. It was ok. Not as good as my favorite, the maple-nut granola. Also today, I ventured into candy making. Last week on Martha, there was a guest who made goat butter and honey caramels. It’s one of my favorite forms of candy, and made even better when sprinkled with sea salt. They turned out really well, and I got to use my candy thermometer for the very first time. The caramels did have one unusual ingredient, goat butter. Not available at our regular grocer; I was able to find it at the fabulous West Point Market. It, combined with the locally sourced honey, makes for a more uniquely flavored caramel. It’s more floral, earthy and quite pleasant.
