Legend of the Mousse

Once upon a time there was a girl that LOVED to bake. One day, she came across a recipe for the most delicious and decedent Ghirardelli Dark-Chocolate Mousse in the world! She looked in her pantry and saw that she has JUST enough to make ONE batch of this delicious dessert...

So off she went...
- Melting chocolate
- Making whipped cream
- Folding it together
- Whipping egg whites
- Folding again

Finally, the time to chill it in the refrigerator had come. In 2 short hours she would be able to taste this gorgeous looking bowl of chocolate...

She turned around...

And...

CRASH!!!

Tripped right over the cooler left in the middle of the floor by her annoying little mouse friend who always tried to sabatoge her work.


Thankfully, the girl had lightning reflexes and managed to save the bowl and about half of the chocolate before it was a TOTAL loss, but still... her dreams of a chocolate mousse pie were shattered... all that was left was the small amount that would be used to fill a couple of measly cream puffs that were lying around.

And the tattoo is finally finished!

Annual Strawberry Picking

I can call it annual if I have done it 2 years in a row right?!?!?

Okay, this last one is not really at the strawberry fields... but it's cute anyway.

Damion's first Baseball GAME!

That was a miss... in fact... all of them were. But that's okay... he made some hits in later games!

And even More beach

Look at my little STRONG man!! When did he get to be a little boy??

North Myrtle Beach Trip

Kids are so resilient. They loved being on the beach and they even enjoyed wading in the water... of course I stayed up on the beach because the water was FREEZING!
