(Just imagine Meghan from Stitch-it saying the title.)
This time of year is a great time for me. Mostly, because marzipan is widely available. On Saturday, Colleen brought me an obscene amount of marzipan. Marzipan potatoes, marzipan fruit, and even a marzipan pig, which I used to love as a small child. (I still love it, I just haven't seen one in years.)
I go through phases where I don't like chocolate, or I'm not in the mood for ice cream. I have never been in a "no marzipan" place. In fact, it's one of those things where (if I'm not careful) I will devour huge quantities in small amounts of time.
(I maintain that it HAS to be good for me. It's made of almonds; almonds have loads of protein.)
Oh good. Now I have someone to give my Christmas marzipan to! Blech. :P
ReplyDeleteAt home in Michigan we have a pastry called banquet. It's flaky pastry surrounding marzipan. Yum!
