Rags to riches with food!!! Try not to be wasteful with food and definitely don’t throw those orange or any citrus peels away..instead turn them into delicious 😋 bites to enjoy! The following can be done with lemons 🍋, limes or grapefruits. Pictured are Candied Orange 🍊 Peels. Pic 1 is how best to peel them and make sure there is little or no white pith left on the backside of the peel. Pics 2, 3 and 4 show the peels boiling (new water every time) on three separate occasions. The purpose is to reduce or eliminate the bitterness from the peel. Pic 5 just shows how best to pull them out from the boiling water. Pic 6 demonstrates how you want to cook the #orange peels for 10-15 minutes in a simple syrup made of water + sugar. Don’t throw the orange scented syrup away!! It’s great for cocktails, crepes and as a simple sweetener! Once the peels are cooked, remove them and place on a parchment covered sheet pan to cool off. Once cool lay them on a bed of sugar which is shown in pic 7. Make sure you cover them lightly with sugar and just allow them to crystallize. After a couple of hours you see the final product (shown in pic 8) - an exterior that is crispy/sweet and an interior that is soft/slightly chewy with an intense orange 🍊 flavor! Take them to another level by dipping one half of them into chocolate ganache! Make a ton and give out to friends/family for the holidays! Or just make it for yourself and enjoy with a glass of scotch after dinner...my fave!! 👍🏽 #oranges #candiedfruit #orangepeel #hardatwork #austincatering #austinchef #residentialcatering #austin #chef #minimalwaste #simplethings #yummy #loveoranges #fruitdessert #frenchtechnique #slowfood #done

What a wonderful birthday present today (my bday) from Mark S. at Amazon! Not only did Amazon not execute my initial request for a refund but after the second request I received this letter from Mark S. As you can see Mark at Amazon changes the narrative claiming the $ Amazon owes me is now a birthday gift (as a credit) from Amazon & Bezos himself! Upon checking for the credit it was no where to be found. So essentially rather than communicating the amount as a refund it was claimed to be a birthday gift..lol Hahahhahahhaha!!! You got to love corporations! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Best birthday gift ever!! #amazon #sad #greatcustomerservice #jeffbezos #toofunny #happybday #bestgiftever #thanksmark #lol #hilarious
