Kosher Gone Krazy

Sometimes at our local Ollie's store I find a product so mind-bogglingly strange I have to have it.

Who on earth decided matzos!?! could become decadent by being dipped in dark chocolate? What was wrong with just dark chocolate covered chocolate? 

Just the Basics

One of the best reasons for having children is so you have more things to celebrate. One of the best things to celebrate is birthdays. One of the best ways to celebrate is cake. One of the best cakes to make is the chocolate raspberry supreme. One of the best reasons to make that cake is to frost it with this fudge frosting. And THE BEST reason is so you can lick the bowl. And the beaters.

Thank you, Miss Dance, for making this celebration possible. :)

(not)Cheery News for Those Feeling Blue

I was clicking across some sites and just briefly saw an ad, I don't know exactly med it was for, but somehow I found the ad a combination of depressing and hysterical. It said something like: You're not alone... One in three patients fail on their first antidepressant taken..."


Cheery, eh? Here you are, depressed and whatnot, and so you try a med. And YOU fail at it. Not it fails you, but you are so worthless you even fail at this. 


Anyhow. I googled trying to find what med it might be and the closest I could get was an article talking about alternatives to antidepressants. I was underimpressed with TCM, TransCranialMagnetism where "strong magnets can be pressed onto a patient's head to influence the brain's circuitry." Does the thought of looking like Frankenstein and being able to attach your family's calendar directly to your head with magnets sound cheering? Maybe it's just me, but I am sticking with dark chocolate, the best mood elevator I know of.
