Just waiting for the kids to go to sleep here. Liam is lingering....

I spent most of today cooking, and remembering why I don't make caramel very often. Caramel eludes me. I think about 3 out of four times I make it, it doesn't work (if you do caramel wrong the sugar crystallizes instead of remaining a clear liquid and you end up with a crusty, opaque mess). Today I managed to get something more or less acceptable on the third try. And I think I might have cracked my problem, namely that I have been cooking it too slowly over too low a heat.

So anyway, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas, whatever that involves for you.
