Thanks...it was better than what I made at the previous carnival but I'm willing to bet the fairy floss did way better!

I'm not taking the bet, Pen! First place I go to on show days is the hotdog on a stick stand, second place is the candy floss :) And I'm way old enough to know better :D

My day today thus far has included housework and these :)

I'm calling them buns but each one is more like a mini loaf. Have just consumed one and I'm full!

If I do say so myself, Miss B, they are damn good :) And please, help yourself ;) These are sourdough, made with the mother my friend Rose gave me in 2014. I have actually kept it alive! It's name is Flossie, after my mum :) So enjoy your Flossie bun for brekkie!

I take it that what you guys are calling fairy/candy floss I'm used to calling cotton candy?

Really fluffy, sugary stuff on a stick,Terre? Makes your mouth go pink afterward? That's what we in NZ call candy floss and the Aussies call fairy floss. Love the stuff, makes me feel five years old again :)

Having seen cotton fields before and after harvest (LOTS of run away cotton balls beside the highway) growing up I always understood the American name for that candy and the Aussie and Kiwi names make sense too. :)
That area is now has a lot less cotton and many dairies where there were none on the Texas side before along that stretch of highway. The Southwest Cheese plant mad a big difference in this entire area on both sides of the state border.

Seliah got it!

I need to spend more time with media. I've never tried linking from Media. Always something new to learn :p

Those buns look good Lorraine!

Since Tsuki moved in, I've been hesitant to use the oven. She is just too curious for her own good, and I'm always worried, I won't notice her in time to prevent her from jumping onto a hot oven door.

Then too, I've always found ovens rather awkward to use. I think I'd be happier with a smaller oven that was counter height instead of such a big oven I have to bend down to move things in and out.

The kitchen simply wasn't designed for me in mind ... at all. Starting with the height of the counters and cupboards!

I definitely need to win the lottery so I can have my tinyish, but really small house built based on my designs. I'd have a loft, with storage stairs, but it would be for storage only. No daily climbing up and down stairs (or in the middle of the night) for me! Bed has to be on the same level as the bathroom and kitchen. And just what is the purpose of a bed when it's not being slept in! Of course, I don't even use mine for that. It's just a place to sit when I'm getting dressed. Kinda hard to put socks on when you're standing o_O
