The morning after comforter knotting last week, I got an email from one of the participants that she had tested positive for Covid. I hoped that since I had Covid at Christmas I had good antibodies.
Five days later, it appears that's what happened. (Apparently, the newest strains have a shorter incubation period than the original one.)
This morning I made a snack mix using Pickapeppa Sauce. It's an adaptation from a Southern Living recipe, less spicy than the original. It's still plenty spicy.
1/2 5 oz bottle Pickapeppa Sauce, 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 1 tsp chili powder, 3/4 tsp cayenne pepper, 1 tsp kosher salt, 6 cups Rice Chex, 4 cups pretzels, 12 oz can salted peanuts
Combine pretzels, Rice Chex, and peanuts in a large bowl. In a sauce pan, heat Peckapeppa Sauce, butter, light brown sugar, and spices. Pour half of heated mixture over dry mixture in large bowl, stirring gently. Add remaining heated mixture. Spread mixture on two rimmed baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake about an hour and fifteen minutes, 250 degrees, stirring every 15 minutes and rotating baking sheets after 45 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets for thirty minutes.
By the way, "Smear" was a good first Wordle word. (See yesterday's post.)
