I'm doing 43 things
This is my first new recipe in my next line up of 10 new dishes! I got the recipe from a bed and breakfast website and couldn’t resist! I don’t like to drink coffee, but I like food and some other drinks that have a coffee flavor…oh and I love coffee ice cream! These came out true to their name…chewy and good, and you can freeze them and eat them right out of the freezer if you want. Great with a cup of tea!

It made me 
How I did it: I went to a video store that was going out of business and bought about 20 movies on the cheap!!

By the way…the slow roasted garlic mojo turned out GREAT! My entire house smells like garlic…in a good way…!
So this new dish I am cooking will complete my goal of learning to cook 10 new dishes! Sad…I’ll probably set another similar goal because it keeps me cooking and experimenting. Tonight I am cooking a dish I saw on the Rick Bayless show this morning on PBS called “Slow Roasted Garlic Mojo”! Tons of garlic, olive oil, some salt, lime…slow cooked and then you use it with mushroom dishes or fish or even drizzled over popcorn! Fun…I’ll let you know how it turns out.
