We have walls- finally! Myles continues to oversee this operation and make sure that things are going along as they should. The space is starting to be defined and the ceilings should be up next.
On another anote, I made these roasted spiced pecans- great snack for those of you who can tolerate nuts. Here it is!
Roasted Spiced Pecans
2 1/2 cups pecans
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 cup sugar (I used organic cane sugar)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoons coarse salt (I used sea salt)
1 teaspoon GF vanilla extract
1/4 cup water
Put the pecans on a baking pan and pour the oil over them and stir together until all the pecans are coated. Bake in the oven at 325 degrees for 20 minutes. Keep stirring and checking to make sure that they don't get too dark. Remove from oven and cool.
Next, stir together sugar, cinnamon, salt and water over medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved. Using a candy thermometer boil to 236 degrees and then remove from heat and beat in vanilla. The mixture will be creamy. Add pecans and stir mixture. Turn mixture onto waxed paper and spread pecans out using a fork to separate the nuts. Cool and enjoy!
We have been munching on these and they are great for the sweet tooth- always my downfall!
Happy Holidays to all!
