One day after the covid vaccine. My arm is slightly sore, though only if I touch it. I felt a little tired and weak yesterday afternoon, but rest and some water remedied that. Otherwise, nothing to report.
Today
was sunny and warm, so I met my family outdoors. We walked, we
talked… and my daughter’s Swedish homework was to make these
no-bake chocolate treats (typical in Sweden). So we set up a baking
station out on the patio. DD did all the work, I just told her which
ingredients she needed and how much and helped her measure some of
them. She didn't need much assistance, though, she’s always been into cooking and baking, and I try to
encourage that. My mother was the same with me, and that is one of
the skills that has actually turned out to be useful nearly every
day. 💙
We
modified the recipe by adding a bit of rum (DD asked: ”How much
though? Like one deciliter?” 😄) and we may have used some more cocoa powder
than the recipe called for. And we used an ice-cream scoop to shape the treats so no need to touch the batter with your hands. And they were delicious! We’ll certainly
ask her to make these again! 😋
