Peteyfoozer’s Journey (because journaling’s not enough)

Randy and Tom made the trek to town today. I decided to make a Butter Brickle Carmel Pecan cheesecake as we haven’t had one for years.
I ALWAYS have several bricks of cream cheese on hand because I use it a lot.
I got the graham crackers crushed yp and the crust made and was going to get the filling made while the first round of dishes dried…to see I have NO cream cheese. I’m in shock

They were almost back home by the time I found out.

So I had to make a farmer’s cheese to substitute as I didn’t have heavy cream, I don’t have any cultured buttermilk or rennet so I can’t make decent cream cheese.
Curds are draining for the night and pinto beans are soaking for canning in the morning.
Nothing’s easy!

😳
No 10 minute run to the grocery store for you! For me, town is 30 minutes, and people think I live in the middle of nowhere!
 
I lucked out! The cowboy’s wife across the way had a brick and met me on the driveway this morning!
