Good 44º cloudy foggy morning. Yesterday we topped at 49º.
Throw Back Thursday... our house December 10, 2001:
This is fun... what your fav dessert says about your
personality...
My favorite dessert is pie.... well, cheesecake, and key lime,
and pumpkin.... So, it said this about me:
"As a passionate pie eater, you're understanding and wise, but
still a real goofball." !!!!!
Yesterday was over the top exciting. Drove into RR for some
chicken to cook for Dude, pick up mail, get prescription, and a stop at ACE for
cracked corn. Dude was a happy camper to just get to ride. He LOVES riding in
the car!
This is divine!

National Chocolate Candy Day
It's National Chocolate Candy Day! Chocolate candy is one of the most
popular sweets in the world. It can be combined with everything from nuts and
caramel to raisins and pretzels to make some of our favorite chocolate
treats!
Did you know that during the Second World War, the U.S. Government
commissioned Milton Hershey to create a candy bar to include in the soldiers'
rations? The recipe his company created is now the famous Hershey Milk Chocolate
Bar.
Today, chocolate is still clearly an American favorite treat. Over 2.8
billion pounds are consumed annually. On average that means each person consumes
over eleven pounds per year! To celebrate National Chocolate Candy Day, enjoy
some of your favorite types of chocolate
candy.
