Chex Mix Epiphany
So, today I'm making Chex Mix,* cutting up the butter into small cubes (even though the recipe doesn't say to do so) because I know that the butter will melt faster that way, and it hits me that people are the same way – that when we are separated from each other, we melt down much faster. But if we're in a solid, connected block, we melt slow.
Huh.
Funny the thoughts that come to me when I'm cooking. Maybe I should cook more often. ;)
*Yeah sure, I know you can buy Chex Mix pre-made in a bag. But it's even yummier homemade. And if you can get it while it's warm and toasty, straight from the oven – that is the best!
