I'm the same way, though I can't say as I find the mid-western flat-lands all that interesting. But I'd love to travel to various other places in the US to see what towns & cities & life are like there. New England, the North East, and the South. Arizona/New Mexico to see the old Pueblo ruins. The North West (though I DO have a bit of experience there, as that's where Mom's family is located). And lots of world-wide locations, of course.<BR/><BR/>I may not find Alaska as interesting, but after 22 years, of COURSE a girl wants to hear about other places. ;) So, can't say as I blame YOU for finding info about Alaska interesting.Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312698112377656801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-34787424361493048602007-02-09T20:27:00.000-08:002007-02-09T20:27:00.000-08:00Hi Kati,Creme Brulee is tasty stuff!

Sounds like you've had your share of experiences with the juvenile party scene. We've had a few (four before this one to be exact) but never one with so much sugar involved. I think the next one will be at a bowling alley with lots of beer.<BR/><BR/>And I'm with ya kiddo; I'll take a book store (particularly one of the pre-read persuasion with a large Sci-Fi section) over a doughnut shop any day.<BR/><BR/>And as I read some of your previous posts I realize how facinating it is that you live in Alaska. I'm sure it probably isn't for you, but being a lifelong midwestern flatlander myself, I always find the different places people live interesting and especially when those places are located in more severe climates. <BR/><BR/>Like you saying it was a beautiful sunny ten degrees outside and you sent your daughter out to play. That is totally cool. Around here ten degree weather headlines the nightly news and people think your breath will freeze in your lungs, never mind letting children out to play in it. What babies we are.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the custard, I'm sure it will turn out great.

If you wanted, you could probably call them and ask if there is anyway to get one to go (for $5 or so). It would probably be worth it. I thought it was as good as Clinkerdagger's. <br />But... if you ever do learn to make it... lemme know... I'll be right up! *smiles*<br />Love ya!<br />- MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-89354022398940761882007-02-06T10:37:00.000-08:002007-02-06T10:37:00.000-08:00Connie & Shelli, I've tried flan (in Spain, actual...Connie & Shelli, I've tried flan (in Spain, actually) and while it was good, I didn't like it as much as I love creme brulee. I don't think creme brulee will be that hard, actually. Just getting the right proportions, not too watery a custard, and enough brown sugar on top to be a nice crust. And making sure it's not under the broiler (or blow-torched) for too long. Don't want to BURN the sugar, that's for sure.<br /><br />Whim, Wiz, and Steph, if you're ever up my way, stop in and I'll make some Clam Chowder & Creme Brulee for supper! *grin*Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312698112377656801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-42021940885307287572007-02-06T08:31:00.000-08:002007-02-06T08:31:00.000-08:00Go here .... http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/recipe_c...Go here .... http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/recipe_cbrulee.htm to see a good recipe. And, as Michelle says, try flan ... easier - you cook the 'topping' on the bottom and turn it over. I love it, Norm doesn't - maybe I should make our egg custard in ramikins and make mine a flan!!!<br /><br />Blessings and good luck.Connie Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00000331487489593437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-13072919930292776732007-02-05T19:37:00.000-08:002007-02-05T19:37:00.000-08:00If I ever get rich would you be my personal chef?If I ever get rich would you be my personal chef?whimsical brainpanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13158339502955458999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-25837150407404148452007-02-05T18:27:00.000-08:002007-02-05T18:27:00.000-08:00I just had creme brulee for the first time last mo...I just had creme brulee for the first time last month, YUM!!<br /><br />good luck!Mutablebluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06398088494734220817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10061220.post-20493173009317493742007-02-05T15:47:00.000-08:002007-02-05T15:47:00.000-08:00Have you ever tried flan?
