I have been making peanut and pecan brittles and decided to make something a little special for Alicia’s good friend. She and her family have been adopted by us and we love them to pieces. For her hubby I made peanut/rum brittle. I know the alcohol cooks down so I used only a 1/4 cup of rum in the syrup. Then instead of the vanilla and water at the end I put rum. Of course I had to try a piece and it tasted like butter scotch peanut brittle, but with little kick at the end. I do think Phil will like it.

I have everything ready for tomorrow and Saturday. Craft fair days. Pictures will be on tomorrow. Then Saturday night unload the car and re load the car for vacation. Hubby will be staying home and will take a nice long nap Saturday(a very hard job, but then someone has to do it.) Then we leave Missouri and head out to the New England states. We will be seeing the beautiful maple trees in the fall (I hope), eat fresh seafood, see some history and visit about 14-18 Quilt shops along the way.
Now to find something to do to kill time.
