Gov't warning: do NOT swallow chewing gum

Vacation this week

Didn't even seem I was on vacation this week at all.  Already I have to go back to  office tomorrow!  Though I did get a lot of blogging done!  This week will start my regular walking routine.  To work and back for a total of 4.5 miles a day!

the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Gov. Walker was on a roll, but it appears he is ruining his winning streak with these ridiculous requirements! How does he justify his decision when this statement is ignored?: "...the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Define: Quirkyalone

Quirkyalone is a neologism referring to someone who enjoys being single (but is not opposed to being in a relationship) and generally prefers to be alone rather than dating for the sake of being in a couple.

I couldn't say it better myself!

Chocolate Cayenne Truffles


Chocolate Cayenne Truffles

Ingredients
  • 9 oz. semisweet chocolate
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 4 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 6 tbsp. cream
  • 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • For powder coating:
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp. cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp. ginger
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
Directions
For Truffles: Melt chocolate, butter and cayenne in a double boiler, or in a bowl in the microwave. Stir well.
Remove from heat, and then mix in cream and powdered sugar. Stir well. The sugar will stick together in small lumps if you don’t stir vigorously. Cover and chill overnight.
For Powder Coating: Scoop out the chocolate, one tablespoon at a time. Mold it into balls and roll the balls in the powder mixture to coat them. Return truffles to the refrigerator until serving time.
