Fog Rain TV Opinions ~ Cat & Ducklings ~ Book Store ~ Military Memorial ~ Chocolate Souffles


Good 42ยบ foggy pressure dropping morning.
Yesterday, as with the day before, about 8am we got 12 or 7 drops of rain. Sun came and went. Some project going on the property to the north of me. Tractor out there making a LOT of noise pushing trees and dirt around. Sigh.... Took a ride to the pond. It's filled, but not as much as it usually is. My camera, the little hand size Canon had battery issues, so no picture. 

TV was good last night ... a Law & Order SVU and Chicago PD back to back with similar crimes they solved together. Early evening it started raining, hard, and for an hour. We got 1/2".  
 
          


That's me... I don't care what anyone thinks! So, bite me! I'm a souffle!

National Chocolate Souffle Day



The word souffle comes from the French verb meaning 'to puff up.' It's an apt term for chocolate souffle, a light and airy dessert made from a few basic ingredients like chocolate or cocoa, egg whites, and custard. Despite its relative simplicity, a souffle makes for an elegant baked dessert that won't cause diners to puff up if they indulge a little!
