    Just finished up my Santee's handmade gift. Nothing like going down to the wire, is there? Now to wrap!! Then I can spend some much-needed time in the hole relaxing by the fire.

    Ha, ha, ha-last for months? Only if you sent a metric ton. Biscotti begs to be eaten...

    I used to make it a lot more often, and in mass quantities. Each batch would have to be tasted, of course. After making so many batches, over the years, it's quite easy for me to resist more than just a few crumbs. Dh will eat a piece now and then, but he and most of my relatives prefer a softer cookie. When I make it for them, I usually skip the second baking. As for myself, it's just too sweet; I prefer a chocolate cupcake. . . or just a piece of dark chocolate! Mmmmmmm!

    Caroline, if you're ever my Secret Santa-ee, I'll send you biscotti!

    Seriously though, they're pretty easy to make. I'll try to remember to post the recipe, later.

    Oh umm yea i use to have SOS as a kid. It was made with chipped dried beef & white gravy. Always on toast. As an Army brat we saw a lot of it as it was fast & super cheap for a family of 5 several times a month...like once a week. And usually severed with canned peas, limabeans or butter beans.... still can't eat them to this day. I can't eat puffed rice or puffed wheat, raisin bran cereals or corn flakes either.

    Neesie... you can send me some of that Biscotti my way. I love dipping in my coffee & hot cocoa. I have no allergies to any of the ingredents.

    Today I got 6 injections in my lower back today. And man did they hurt!! I have one that still hurts and this is before the medicines are even injected!!! I go back on Friday for the left shoulder and believe you me...he will hear about it if it doeesn't abate.

    I go back to see the surgeon tomorrow. I tryed eating some soft buttered noodles and they where getting stuck... and my neck is painfully swollen. Looks like I'm back on the liquid diet again... blak...not a big fan of jello. I also have to use a straw in order not to choke. I'm still sleeping in the recliner...joy of joy! NOT!!! The cats keep trying to sleep on neck & chest...the little buggers!

    Anyways I found a package waiting for me when I finally made it home this afternoon. My cats are sure interested in the box. I have caught them chewing on the corners before I stashed in a closet. Mine will going out in the next day to two in between trips to doctor appointments.

    Well I'm drained so I got to let Terri know I got mine so I can take another pain pill & land in my recliner.
