You ever have those moments where you just feel full?
No. Not THAT kind of full.
Just full in your soul.
I’ve had a lot of those lately.
Moments where I feel full of contentment.
Full of happiness.
Full of gratefulness.
Full of thankfulness for the life I have.
For the blessing I’ve been given.
For my family.
My friends.
My home.
My job.
For all of you who come here.
Who read what I have to say.
Who leave me nice words.
Instead of focusing on the “have nots”
Today my heart is just full of the “haves”
During this season of Thanksgiving what are you thankful for?
P.S. I’m also thankful for a super simple, but still delicious caramel snacks.
Microwave Caramels
1/2 C. Butter (1 stick)
1 C. White Sugar
1 C. Brown Sugar
1 C. Lt. Karo Syrup
1 can (14 oz) Sweetened Condensed Milk
Prepare an 8×8 baking dish or pan by greasing lightly with cooking spray or rubbing with shortening. Place a piece of waxed paper into the pan allowing enough paper to come over the edges of the pan. Spray paper with cooking spray or rub with shortening. Set aside.
Combine ingredients in a microwave safe bowl. Cook in 2 minute, increments stirring after each, for a total of 12 minutes. Pour caramel into dish and allow to cool completely. I placed mine in the refrigerator to cool. Remove from pan and cut into squares. Wrap in waxed paper. I cut approximately 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 squares of wax paper to wrap my caramels in.
Store wrapped in an air tight container or in the refrigerator. (Caramels can be soft)
