"F" was supposed to equal something else and though my intention was never to use the actual word but, more to comment on the increasing use of it and my disincreasing (is that a word?) use of it and when I figured out that post was due to come out on a Sunday, I couldn't do it.
You see, I take issue (personally) with a lot of things that happen on Sundays. I don't like telemarketers who call on Sunday and I let them know all about it! I don't care for solicitations on Sunday. I also will not do make-up work on Sunday. When I was younger, my mom wouldn't even allow 'holey' jeans on Sunday. I couldn't go against my principles. I couldn't disappoint my parents.
Okay so, Fudge.
Did you know that FUDGE was once an acronym for Freeform Universal Donated (later, Do-it-yourself) Gaming Engine?
Hot Fudge as in sundaes - Yum! That is if they are NOT from McDonald's. I don't care as much for their hot fudge - it's a little grainy.
Speaking of grainy, peanut butter fudge. Though I totally love the concept, I have only ever had one peanut butter fudge that tasted great and was soft without being grainy. I'm so getting her recipe next year!
Slabs of fudge - like from Mackinac Island - oh! They have THE BEST fudge on the island! Maybe it's because they make/sell so much that it's always fresh
Homemade fudge - my sister used to make some at Christmas that had little bits of Candy Cane on the top. Nothing like a little peppermint and a little chocolate!
This Christmas, I'm making Velveeta Fudge!
I only take one issue with the uh, fudges mentioned above - they cannot have nuts. I don't like them in cookies, in cakes, in ice cream, in M&M's, in anything. I don't mind nuts by themselves. I simply don't like them IN things.
I also don't care for white or vanilla fudge but, I don't care for white chocolate either.
One of my other faves, Ryba's Mackinac Island Fudge Ice Cream. I love those little chocolate chunkies and swirls of fudge in vanilla ice cream = delicious!
Fudgesicles - like the get through the thin ice on the outside first and then savor the frozen fudgy goodness.
I also have enjoyed Judy Blume's 'The Fudge Books'.
Did you know her books were made into a television series named what else but, Fudge?
How about a little Accounts Receivable Management Team named Williams & Fudge. Yes, an accouting firm named Fudge! When Fudge does the books could it be considered 'fudging' the numbers?
And the ever unpopular where I come from, Fudgies.
What about The F.U.D.GE Theatre Company?
Have you ever tried fudge covered pretzels? If not, please do! Use care, they melt fast.
I have not tried Oreo Fudge Cremes though - Have you?
