Great!! I'm pleased that your mom will get her almonds. I hope this

is the recipe you were looking for. My mil swears that it is.

Have a good night Courage. (Do you ever sleep??? Look at the

time!!! I'm a restless sleeper too but it's unusual for me to be up

at this time. In your case it's a foregone conclusion...)

Courage:

I used to do that regularly when I was in my 20's. I could only stay up one

whole night a week in my 30's. I had my kids in my 40's, so Idon't know what

my sleep pattern would have been. Now, in my 50's, I pass out at 8 PM, if I

dont stay on my feet, and get up at 5:45 AM, with naps in between. You have a

lot of stamina! Hugs,

LOL at the Meringued almond story...never had those. Are they yummy

too??

My m-i-l did say the secret was in the egg whites. You just

demonstrated her theory is correct. I'll be sure to tell her. She

really does love to be right.

That explains a lot re: your sleeping patterns or lack thereof. I'm

a horrible sleeper myself.

Hope the second time's the charm insofar as the almonds are concerned.
