    I Got It All Done

    Georgia Mud Fudge

    What a beautiful day  we had yesterday. Bright blue skies, a brisk wind from the west and temperatures around 50 degrees. It was a busy day, doctors appointment in the morning, the never ending laundry and packing, grocery shopping, trip to Kinkos, bills needed paid and a a DQ blizzard needed consumed. I tried a new flavor I had never heard of before called a Georgia Mud Fudge. It’s made with chewy baked brownie pieces, cocoa fudge, vanilla soft serve and Georgia pecans. Even though it was a busy day, I got it all done. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

    It's an Epidemic

    Hand-in-hand

    It’s effecting hundreds of people. Football season is over, we’ve had at least two full days of sunshine and temperatures are finally rising above freezing. With these kinds of conditions I found people aimlessly wandering in Inniswood Gardens yesterday afternoon, all of them infected with “Spring Fever.” Parents had the youngest toddler in the stroller while the older siblings were burning up energy running along the trails. Couples were walking hand-in-hand as they soaked up the warm sunshine. Any park bench which had been covered in snow and ice last week was now welcoming people to sit and listen to the birds sing. The melting snow was now revealing a carpet of green grass. Tulip sprouts were breaking through the dark soil as they stretched upwards for the suns rays. I even drove by the Dairy Queen and noticed a few people medicating themselves with ice cream. Yup, Spring Fever was everywhere. I think I may have it!!! And, just to be sure I medicated myself with one of those Blizzards, the Midnight Truffle.

    Can't Stop

     

    Another One
    Another One

    For the second week in a row I fell prey to another blizzard. Last week it was a Butterfinger blizzard and this time it was a Heath Bar blizzard. Why can’t I stop? I need help! First comes the overpowering obsession. After the first bite is taken comes the brain freeze and we start to shovel it. Before you now it there is none left. Exhausted the legs begin to weaken, the room starts to spin, then the black out. We awaken full of remorse but wondering what the Cookie Dough blizzard would taste like. I need help!
