Miscellany

This is my fortune cookie prediction from lunch today. With a decent Chinese restaurant just a block away, we end up there on a fairly regular basis. We've started to save our cookie fortunes and now have a bowl dedicated just to them.

I haven't been keeping up with the blog much lately, but here are a couple of new discoveries..

Sweet, delicious Ginger Syrup! It's a heck of a lot cheaper than real Maple syrup, and oh so good!
Ginger pancakes with ginger syrup, need I say more? Tomorrow morning, french toast with ginger syrup. The obsession continues...

Sherrie and I spent a couple of evenings putting together this impossible jigsaw puzzle by
Alex Beard. Guess what? IT WAS REALLY HARD!

Ginger, Ginger, Ginger!

A couple of weeks ago I came home to a Fed-Ex truck out front, when I got in, there was a large heavy box on the dining room table. It was a case of Blenheim's Ginger Ale. It was a house- warming present sent to me and Sherrie by my friend Antoinette back in Ohio. Antoinette remembered that we are both serious ginger addicts, and this gift was a wonderful surprise for the two of us.
Neither of us had ever had this brand of ginger ale before... yikes!!! This stuff makes your throat burn, your eyes water, you feel your brain doing backflips, in other words, we love it! My discovery is that with some vanilla ice cream you can make the most indescribably wonderful Ginger Float!
Thanks Antoinette!!!
