oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Looks like caramel sauce store in the refrigerator for a long time -- I know we kept it in the fridge growing up , but it never lasted very long- because we ate it all

Best wishes to you, Sue & Pico. It's just hard.

So...took the parents around Hampden today. Open houses. Oy. (You happy now , msbelle?!)

And then we got rained on in Ellicott City and ate dinner at Niwana (please note these are all far from each other and there was an accident on 70 and OY.)

But, a good day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

man this weekend mac and I have been caught out in rain 3 times. At least today we were only hit by it for a block.

We Targetted - I told mac he could look at toys as long as he wanted and it turns out - that's about 45 minutes. I managed to started getting some items off the school supplies list, shockingly, I know, I like to be prepared early so as to avoid a mad rush in August.

I think I would have Corian in my kitchen too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I cleaned out our walk in closet today and ended up with a huge load of stuff to take to donate to Goodwill.

And I finally unloaded my new dishes (one of the dinner plates was broken--feh.) I'll have to take it back to Kohl's tomorrow.

One thing in looking at the houses was that I'll just not do with a kitchen smaller than the one I have now. No fricking way. I don't care if it has just been completely renovated. Newp.

My parents leave at 6:15 tomorrow. Which means I am getting up at 4:30 to drive them to the airport. Hey, I might have time to do a load of laundry before I even have to shower to go to work.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm not sure I've ever made caramel that wasn't consumed the same day, but if I were making enough to store, I'd put it in the fridge. (Probably with a wad of paper towels underneath to catch drips.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If I made caramel syrup, how would I store it?

I'd put plastic wrap right on the surface of the sauce, because it'll develop a bit of a skin when it cools. Not that this isn't tasty, but it'll affect the texture when you go to reuse it. Other than that, just make sure it's in a good sealed container -- and be sure it's cooled to room temp before you pack it up, if your container is plastic.

Could it be stored for a while?

A good long while, but note what Beth and Jess said about it not lasting long enough to become an issue.
