House Fire

These are pictures of the house that burned in our town Sat. night and was a total loss.  The firemen and ambulance crew were called out at 11:15 pm and were there until early morning.  Bill got home and they were called out again soon after because there were still some hot spots.  He got home again around 8:00 or so and they were called out again at about 8:30.   They met with the family at the fire station at noon.  So it was a long night and next day.  Most of us wives don't get much sleep either when our husbands are at a fire. 

After both of us battling the flu and the coughing has hung on, we haven't been up to speed lately.  I finally made some fudge and caramels tonight.  Bill has been asking for caramels!  I did a blog post about making caramels on 12/10/10 with pictures and the recipe.  Check the right sidebar for the Recipes category and scroll down.   Or click HERE - I think that will take you right to it.  Caramels are easy because they don't have many ingredients and just take about 30 min. of cooking and stirring.
