An old man recently flagged my husband down while driving. The old man motioned for him to roll down his window and then asked him to pull over. This man had no teeth.
"What is Raising Marshmallows?" The old man asked slowly, pointing at the window decal on my husbands truck. "I've been driving behind you and I just had to ask."
"My wife's blog," my husband answered.
"Does the white stuff spilling over the back of your tailgate have anything to do with the website?" The old man was still confused.
"No...that's taping mud." My husband laughed, he explained it wasn't candy.
"What's the blog about then?" The old man asked.
My husband handed him one of my business cards and suggested he check it out.
So my apologies to all who have stumbled across this blog thinking you would find marshmallows only to discover parental sarcasm.
While the literal light, spongy, very sweet confection, made up of corn syrup, gelatin, sugar, and starch, then dusted with powdered sugar doesn't live in this blog...the proverbial kind does.
