Tuesday Has a Recipe 10.12.10 {Fair Fried Dough with Maple Cream Topping}
Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of the Sandwich Fair, and the first annual Skillet Throwing Contest, which my darling mother in law talked me into entering. I was able to throw the 4 pound cast iron skillet fairly straight, much to my surprise and delight, and gave it a good 33 foot toss. Nothing compared to the winner's 57 foot launch, but I was happy to have not hurt anyone!
I shared some Fried Dough with cream maple glaze with my 8 year old early in the day, and it was by far, the best fried dough I ever had! Inspired by this, I am posting a recipe for fried dough you can make at home from Meeyauw's Recipes and maple cream sauce recipe that I think would work!
For the maple cream:
Combine 1 cup pure maple syrup, 1/2 cup heavy cream and about 2 tablespoons butter in a sauce pan and bring it to a boil.
More about my eventful weekend to come, with some real party pix! WOOT!
Best,
Krysten

It's Freebie Monday 10.11.10
First of all, sorry about Feature Friday - I was a no show! :( Had three parties this weekend, and currently not in the state, so Friday did not go how I planned it.
So to my linky friends who linked up last week, I will FEATURE FRIDAY you this Friday. Pinky swear!
BUT TODAY IS MONDAY! I love Freebie Monday.
I found this super cool tutorial for Thanksgiving Fortune Cookies from Kind Over Matter complete with picture tutorial. LOVE it! Go to their site to download.
See you all tomorrow for Recipe Tuesday!
Best,
Krysten
