There’s about six inches of snow outside right now.  I had no idea it was supposed to snow today.  I woke up at 6AM, looked out the window, and like a kid hoping for a snow day, ran to my laptop to check my work email.  Our senior manager sent out an e-mail telling us to stay home.  Snow day!  I do have to do some work though, so it’s not a free day what-so-ever.  It sure beats commuting.

The fluffy flakes of snow reminded me of shaved coconut meat, so I killed some time in the early morning by making some coconut mint jellies.  The first two batches were disastrous as gelatin isn’t easy to work with or to control, but I think I got the hang of it.  To me, one of the best things about cooking is going through the trial and error process.

I don’t have the recipe written down yet as I’m struggling to write down how to control the use of the gelatin.

Stay tuned though!
