So, I totally suck at blogging lately. Time eludes me, children take up my every waking moment, my home business is picking up steam at a rapid rate.
I'm so very lucky, and so very sorry all at the same time. I promise to do better.
In the mean time, here are a few of the treats I've made lately.
Thanks for reading. :)
Waiting and Weddings and Water, Oh My...
I feel like I've gone on hiatus again and I have no real reason other than Summer hit and we've been spending so much time outside in the yard with two tiny nudists! The splash pad is out, the pool's going up, and the sunscreen's aplenty!
I've also booked myself silly for a couple of months with weddings and teacher's presents and birthdays.
In celebration of my procrastination in posting and my crazy schedule, enjoy this chocolate orange crepe cake.
I made it for Big Daddy for Father's Day, He wanted a cake that tasted like a Terry's Chocolate Orange, and this is what I came up with. After two unsuccessful "crepes", I got the hang of things.
Chocolate Orange Crepe Cake
1 Box French Vanilla Cake Mix (I used Duncan Hines)
1 Large Orange
1 t. Orange Oil (I used LorAnn's)
Prepare cake mix according to directions, only substituting the oil for melted butter. Add the zest of your orange, as well as all of its juice. Stir to incorporate.
Add orange oil and stir again to blend.
Heat a medium sized skillet or frying pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray.
Once heated, measure out approximately 1/2 cup of batter and pour into pan. Tilt pan back and forth until the base is fully coated and let set until the top of your 'crepe' appears dry. Using a long spatula, flip the cake over and cook for another 15-20 seconds.
Place on a wire rack and once cool, place a sheet of wax paper on the top.
Continue with remaining batter until it's all gone.
I filled and topped mine with a chocolate buttercream and a few squares of a Lindt chocolate orange bar to round out the flavor combo.
Chocolate Buttercream
1 Cup Butter, softened
1/2 C Cocoa, sifted
1/2 t. Vanilla
6-8 C Icing Sugar
Beat butter until light and fluffy. Scrape down bowl and add cocoa, vanilla, and icing sugar. Beat until desired consistency is reached.
Place one crepe on a serving platter, cake round, plate, etc, and frost generously. Keep alternating crepes and frosting until you place the top one. Here's where I added the chocolate squares.
You could, in theory, frost the whole outside of the cake as well, but I liked looking at the layers. So there.
Cut, enjoy, and try not to think about how different it feels to be eating tiny thin layers of cake rather than a large chunk.
Totally different, totally awesome!
WW: WindowBow...
Makin' Whoopie(s)...
Recently, a friend of mine asked if I could make 150 cupcakes for his upcoming wedding.
Heck, yeah!
After a little Facebook back and forth, he and his bride-to-be decided they wanted a low key dessert and asked if I'd make some whoopie pies.
Double heck yeah!
I'd never made them before but have been bookmarking recipes to try for ages.
All he gave me to work with were their wedding colors and the flavors they wanted.
Blue and white, and straight up chocolate and vanilla.
This first batch is the classic chocolate whoopie cake with a vanilla bean buttercream icing that I split in half and tinted blue.
I rolled some whoopies in blue sugar pearls, some in sugar crystals, left some plain, and rolled the rest in white sugar crystals.
I've got a batch of vanilla whoopies cooling that I'll fill with the same icing, some chocolate ganache, and I'll tint a vanilla batch blue tomorrow.
These are as most recipes promise, moist, decadent, and addictive.
Chocolate Whoopie Pies
Slightly adapted from Whoopie Pies
1 C All-Purpose Flour
2/3 C Cake and Pastry Flour
2/3 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 1/2 Teaspoons Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
4 Tablespoons Salted Butter, Room Temperature
4 Tablespoons Vegetable Shortening
1 Cup Packed Dark Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Cup Milk
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a bowl, sift together your flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, beat butter, shortening and sugar on low speed until just combined. Increase your speed to medium and beat for about 3 minutes. It will be light and fluffy.
Add in the egg and vanilla and beat for two more minutes.
Add half of the flour mixture and half of the milk and beat on low until well incorporated.
Repeat with remaining flour and milk and beat until combined.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop batter on baking sheet about two inches apart. The batter will spread so you don't want them touching.
Bake for about 10 minutes each or until pies spring back when gently pressed.
Remove from oven and cool for about five minutes on parchment lined sheets before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.
After they've cooled, you can fill them with whatever you'd like; buttercream, ganache, marshmallow creme, cream cheese icing.
I used my standard buttercream recipe and piped the filling on one half of the pie, sandwiching it with another, pressing down gently until the frosting reaches the edge.
I then rolled the edges in the sprinkles and pearls.
1 Cup Butter, Softened (I use salted to cut some of the sweetness.)
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste (Or vanilla, I'm still hooked on my paste..)
1/3 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream (Optional.)
6-8 Cups Icing Sugar
Food Coloring (Optional, I use Wilton Gels.)
Beat butter in your stand mixer (Or by hand, work with what you've got...) until light and fluffy.
Add vanilla and whipping cream and beat about 1 more minute.
Slowly add your icing sugar until you've reached desired icing consistency; nobody likes inhaling that stuff or covering your floor with it.
It's at this point that you can add your color, mixing until combined.
I shared this trial wedding batch with the neighborhood. Good thing too or we would have eaten them all here.
I'm pretty sure my boys will have permanent chocolate and icing mustaches.
Long live the whoopie!
Ug. Sorry I've been absent! I feel like a piece of me is missing.
I'm still reading everyone, I just haven't been able to catch a moment to write or post anything.
Big Daddy hurt his leg pretty badly last week and I've been doing EVERYTHING.. It's almost like I've got three babes in the house and the big one needed more attention than the two little ones.
I've got cookies to post, cupcakes to talk about, ME business. You know?
I promise to get one off in the next day or so.
Don't leave.
I'll make it worth your while to come back.
Thanks for sticking with me.

Cookies and Cream Cupcakes...
Who doesn't need a sugar fix every now and then? (Or constantly..)
These cupcakes will cover all of your necessary needs. Be prepared, though, for sugar withdrawl once the days nears its end.
I discovered the original recipe while
She got her cupcake recipe from Tidy Mom, and I altered it ever so slightly to use what I had on hand. (I basically just used a different cake mix..)
I made them for Oliver's first birthday party and there was nary a cupcake left when it was over.
So, splash a little cold water on your face, take a deep breath, and go big or go home.
1 box Betty Crocker Confetti Cake Mix
1/2 Cup Butter, melted
1 cup water
3 eggs
24 whole Oreos (I used 12 Original and 12 Golden)
Preheat oven to 350 and line your muffin tins with papers. Place an Oreo in the bottom of each one.
In your mixer, combine cake mix, eggs, melted butter, and water. Blend on low speed for about one minute. Increase speed to high and beat for another minute. Top the Oreos with batter, filling your liners about 2/3 full.
Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until cupcake tops spring back when touched lightly.
While your cupcakes are cooling, you can make your filling. Yes, filling!
3/4 of a 16 Oz. Jar of Fluff (Marshmallow Creme)
1/2 Cup Softened Butter (I used salted to cut some of the sweetness.)
1/4 Teaspoon Vanilla
4 Tablespoons Whipping Cream
1 1/2 Cups Icing Sugar
In your mixer bowl, beat Fluff, butter, cream, and vanilla on medium until smooth.
Slowly add the icing sugar and increase speed to medium-high. Beat for about a minute.
Refrigerate filling until cupcakes are done cooling.
Once your cupcakes are cooled, you can fill them with the marshmallow filling. I used a long skinny piping tip to inject the filling, but if I were to make these again, I'd use the cone method to get more in there.
2 Cups Butter, Softened (Again, I use salted to cut some of the sweetness..)
1/4 Cup Whipping Cream
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
7-8 Cups Icing Sugar
Again, in your mixer, beat your butter, whipping cream, and vanilla until smooth and well blended.
Slowly add in your icing sugar (so you don't have a mushroom cloud of sugar) and mix on low for a few seconds. Once almost blended, turn up to medium and whip until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Once blended, fold in about 10-15 finely crushed oreos. (Folding ensures the cookies don't just turn your icing grey, and finely crushing them ensures that everything will pipe smoothly with no clumping.)
Pipe (Or slather) the icing on your cupcakes. I drizzled the tops of mine with more marshmallow filling before serving.
Keep any uneaten cupcakes in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
Garlic Parmesan Potatoes...
|Not the best photo but it's the taste and smell that count!
We do a lot of side dishes here. Oliver needs finger foods and Gabriel needs variety. (Big Daddy just needs food.) They're the two easiest little people to feed. They love their veggies, and Mama's potatoes never go astray.
I must warn you, neither recipe is short on butter or garlic, so obviously, you can adjust according to personal taste.
Garlic Parmesan Potatoes
(Feeds 2 and 2 little people)
(Printable Recipe)
(Printable Recipe)
4 Medium Yukon Gold Potatoes; washed and poked
2 Cloves Garlic; minced, pressed, or grated
Approx. 1/3 Cup Butter
1-1 &1/2 Cups Breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
1/2 Cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese
Begin by microwaving your potatoes for approximately 10 minutes. (My microwave has a tater setting.) Set aside for a few minutes until they're cool enough to handle while you prepare your garlic.
I use a small rasp to grate my garlic and set it aside.
In a decent sized frying pan or skillet over medium heat, melt your butter and soften your garlic.
Add potatoes and allow them to absorb some of the butter, keep it all moving around the pan to coat evenly.
Sprinkle bread crumbs over the potatoes until well coated and continue frying until cooked. (Test firmness with a fork.)
Before removing from heat to serve, toss with parmesan.
Make sure whoever you'll be making out with eats this too. Otherwise, you'll reek of garlic alone.
We all know it's more fun to stink of garlic as a family.
Cookie Dough Brownies...(Crownies)
You can seriously add cookie dough to anything to make it better.
Kids don't like spinach? Add cookie dough.
Having a rough day? Have some cookie dough.
Cut your arm? Put some cookie dough on it.
Car won't start? Yep, cookie dough.
Because cookie dough makes everyone feel better, enjoy these.
Brownies are good, but add cookie dough? Better.
(Printable Recipe)
(Cookie Dough)
Recipe from Hershey
1 C Shortening or Butter (I rarely use shortening, but in this cookie, it keep them moist and from burning)
1 C Packed Brown Sugar
1 C Granulated Sugar
2 Eggs
1 & 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
2 C AP Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
2 C Chocolate Chips (I used Hershey's Chipits.)
Cream together shortening and sugars. Beat in both eggs and vanilla.
Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt and add it gradually to the creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Set aside.
I cheated this time and used a Duncan Hines Decadent Milk Chocolate Chunk Brownie Mix.
~Follow directions on box, spreading blended brownie mixture into a greased 9 x 13 pan and top with spoonfuls of cookie dough. Bake at 350 for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
I'm not gonna lie, I let these rest for 4 minutes and cut into them. I brought a few over to my neighbours, but mostly risked burning off the tip of my tongue for a taste.
Once they were mostly cooled, though, we turned them into brownie sundaes. Gross.
Don't do it.
You won't like these topped with ice cream.
Do it.
Cinnamon Roll Cookies...
After the Blogger Fiasco of last week, I got discouraged when my Strawberry Chiffon Pie draft/post disappeared. Then, I found these.
Normally I tinker and fiddle with recipes, but for this one, I used the sugar cookie recipe over at Picky Palate dead-on.
It was perfect, moist, flavorful, easy to work with, and tastes AHMAZING when slathered with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Cinnamon Roll Sugar Cookies
(Recipe from Picky Palate)
(Printable Recipe)
2 Cups Sugar
1 Cup Softened Butter
3 Eggs
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Cup Sour Cream
6 Cups Flour
2 Teaspoons Baking Soda
2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
12 Tablespoons Softened Butter (You'll use about 2 per oval, which will total 12 TBSP.)
1 1/2 Cups Packed Light Brown Sugar, divided into 1/4 Cups
1 1/2 Tablespoons Ground Cinnamon, divided
(Not gonna lie, I used ZERO measurements for the filling, I just sprinkled and slathered until I was satisfied these cookies would oooooooze butter and brown sugar.)
8 oz Softened Cream Cheese (I used Philly)
1/2 Cup Icing Sugar
2-4 Tablespoons Milk
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla (I used Vanilla Bean Paste, mostly due to my current obsession..)
1. With your mixer, cream the sugar and butter. Add eggs, vanilla, and sour cream until well combined. Slowly add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt until you've produced a uniform, well combined dough.
2. In 2 separate batches, place the dough in plastic wrap and form into a disc shape. Chill for at least 2 hours for best results.
3. Once chilled, cut each disc into thirds and roll into an approximate 1/8 inch thick oval, about 12 inches X 5 inches. (I worked with 1/3 at a time and put the rest in the fridge so it would stay firm. Soft dough=sad dough.
Spread each rolled piece of dough with 2 Tablespoons softened butter, 1/4 Cup packed brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. (Again, no measuring, just slapped it on!)
Starting from the long end closest to you, roll into a log shape. Using a sharp knife, cut 1/2 inch pieces of dough then placing onto a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes before removing from baking sheet.
4. To prepare frosting, beat the cream cheese until softened and smooth, slowly add powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until desired consistency.
Frost cookies then place in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Makes at least 6 Dozen cookies.
Like it states on Picky Palate, these cookies are just a little bit better after they've chilled in the fridge for a bit.
Most of mine didn't make it there.
Or get frosting.
Or even completely cooled.
I'm linking this up at Tea Party Tuesday. :)
A Lemonade Birthday...
Every year, Big Daddy gets to choose what type of birthday cake he'd like and this year was no different. He'd already decided that lemon was the flavor and then I showed him this.
It's like Shelly over at cookies and cups lives with me, or at least hears our cravings while I'm showing BD EVERY delicious thing she makes.
I only made a few changes to her original recipe, nothing major, just played around a little to make sure I'd be able to feed all the hungry, salivating mouths that were waiting for it!
BD's parents were here for the week and we also had one of their cousins join us, so rather than just the 2 grown-up and 2 teeny mouths we normally feed, I had a whole lot more! The general concensus is that it's the best cake I've ever made. Thanks Shelly!
Lemonade Cake
(Recipe slightly adapted from cookies and cups)
(Printable Recipe)
1 Boxed Lemon Cake Mix (Like Shelly, I used Duncan Hines)
4 Eggs
1 1/4 C Milk
1/3 C Vegetable Oil
2 T Frozen Lemonade Concentrate (Keep remaining in freezer, you'll use it again!)
Blend all ingredients together in your mixer for 30 seconds on low and after scraping down the bowl, beat on medium for 2 minutes.
Pour into greased and floured cake pans and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes until cake is set and toothpick comes out clean.
Cool completely in the pans. Once cool, level the cakes so that they're all flat on top.
~Instead of using the glaze the recipe called for for the cake layers, BD wanted it to be like a "poke" cake.
1 Pkg. Lemon Jello
1 C Boiling Water
1 C Cold Water
Mix according to directions on box and once cake is cool, poke it all over with a fork and pour lemon jello all over.
Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
When cake is ready, make your icing.
Lemonade Cream Cheese Icing
1 8 oz. Pkg. Cream Cheese (I used Philadelphia)
3/4 C Butter
3 T Frozen Lemonade
1 t. Vanilla Bean Paste (I used this rather than liquid vanilla because I just got it and am OBSESSED!)
5-6 C Icing Sugar (Until your desired consistency is achieved)
Beat cream cheese and room temperature butter and blended and fluffy. Add lemonade and vanilla and mix until combined.
Slowly add your powdered sugar until well blended and spreadable.
I spilt my layers in half to make a four layer cake but you don't have to, two is fine. When you're all set, remove your cakes from the fridge and frost as desired.
Don't Call My Name, Alé-fredo...
|Creamy, cheesy, garlicky? Yes, please!
I had a dream about this the other night.
No, really! It came to me in a dream, I had to make it in real-life.
I often play around with cream sauces and pasta, but this one was a concrete recipe in my head when I woke up hungry.
It must be because I've been considering making a video for the Real Women of Philadelphia competition. (God help us all..) I also won a brand new Kraft/Philly Real Women apron from Sweetopia.
It's like, a sign.
A potential $20,000 sign.
Too bad I hate being in front of the camera. I'm perfectly comfortable being behind it.
Alas, since I probably won't have the cojones to make a moving pictorial of myself, I'll share my recipe here, with you.
*Warning: This isn't really a heart healthy/low-cal sauce. At all. That might be what makes it soooooo good though.
Chicken Alfredo Farfalle
1/4 C Butter
1 Tub Philadelphia Herb & Garlic Cream Cheese
1 1/2 C Heavy Cream
2 C Grated Parmesan Cheese (The not-in-a shaker kind. Reserve a little for garnish.)
1 C Shredded Mozarella Cheese
1 Clove Minced Garlic (I grate mine with a rasp since I don't have a press and tiny fingers like to reach up on my counters to grab knives sight unseen..)
2 cooked, chopped, boneless skinless chicken breasts
Chopped Green Onion (For garnish and extra flavor.)
Box of Farfalle Pasta
Cook pasta according to directions. While it's boiling, prepare your cream sauce.
In a heavy saucepan on medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and cook about 30 seconds.
Add cream cheese and stir until melted and creamy. Stir in whipping cream until all ingredients are blended and smooth.
Dump (classy term, right?) all of the cheese in and stir to coat. Sauce will thicken as it cooks and all of the cheese melts, you can now cook over medium-low heat until it's done.
When the sauce has thickened, toss in the chopped chicken just until heated through.
Top cooked pasta with a generous serving of sauce, top with green onion and cheese, and
slather on gut enjoy!
Hiatus and Happy Easter...
I know Easter is over but there's still time to get a batch of these suckers out of your system since I knoooow you got some this past weekend.
We got back yesterday from a wonderful, too-short weekend with my parents, grandparents, and great-grandfather. Obviously the Easter Bunny found us and the boys had an amazing time.
I had Mini-Eggs for breakfast.
Don't judge.
I made this cupcake last month as an "Easter Cupcake" trial and what better time than five days ago to post it? Ha!
As per usual, I used my favorite chocolate cake recipe for the cupcake batter.
About 30 minutes before baking, or overnight, freeze your unwrapped Creme Eggs. I used the minis so I wouldn't be in a Creme Egg Coma. (It's a real thing, swear!) You'll also want to make sure the liner filling and baking happen rather quickly as you don't want your egg to melt.
Fill your liners with batter, about 2/3 full, drop in a creme egg.
Bake as per directions.
While my cupcakes were baking, I made my frosting. I chose a cream cheese frosting since I thought I'd already be borderline flatlined from the creme egg cupcake, buttercream might be too much.
Cream Cheese Frosting
1 pkg. Cream Cheese (I use Philly)
1 Cup Butter
4-6 Cups Icing Sugar (Depending on how stiff you want it to be)
Yellow Food Coloring (I used Golden Yellow Wilton)
1 T Vanilla (I used Clear Wilton Vanilla)
Beat cream cheese and butter with electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Add vanilla, beat again.
Add icing sugar and mix until you've reached your desired consistency.
Remove half the icing and put yellow food coloring in the mixer bowl with the rest of the icing.
Beat it until blended.
To achieve the dual colored swirl, carefully fill your piping bag with half the yellow and half the white. (It's easiest to spoon it in while on its side..)
Pipe your swirl and top with another creme egg.
With any luck, your eggs stayed intact on the inside. A thicker batter might be more ideal for this particular concoction, but mine fared pretty well!
Don't make these again until next Easter. Your friends will
hate love you!
Blog Award and STILL Linking...
I got this fantastic award from Trish over at Sweetology and I couldn't be more proud and honored! It's my very first as a food blogger and it truly means a lot. Go check out her blog, there are tons of goodies over there, plus, she's pretty rad!
As part of the award, I'm required to tell you 7 things about myself.
1) I am the mother of two HILARIOUS boys, Gabe's 2 & 1/2 and Ollie is going to be 1 next week. They are two of the funniest people I have EVER met!
2) I can bust out every single word to Baby Got Back (Dance Party included). My kids think I'm AWESOME!!

6) I've never been outside of Canada except for "State Drive-throughs" while on vacations as a youngster. I have the itch to travel.
7) I wear flip-flops year round. It's unhealthy. Or so my Mom says..
~I, in turn, would like to share this award with some of my favorite bloggers!
Cookies and Cups is amazing. She's funny, makes ridiculously delicious treats, and doesn't give two hoots about the calorie count!
Kristan from Confessions of a Cookbook Queen is hilarious. Not only has she posted a picture of herself playing Twister with her son and pointed out her sweets laden "baby", she is an absolute riot. Her goodies are gorgeous, her stories are funny, you'll have a blast over there!
Adryon from Adryon's Kitchen drops the F Bomb. I dig that. Her food always looks impeccable and I love her story. Go check her out and you'll be hooked!

Thanks to all of these ladies for keeping me on my toes and continually inspiring me, thank you to Trish for nominating me, and thank you to you, if you're reading.
|The Holy Trinity...
Armed with only a severe sweet craving, some cookie dough, brand new cupcake liners from my mama, and willing participants, I set to work.
As usual, I used my favorite chocolate cake recipe, filled my liners appropriately, and stuffed half with chocolate chip cookie dough as per a previous post, 6 with peanut butter cookie dough, and left 6 plain.
Once cooled, I frosted the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes with the cookie dough frosting from the same post, topped the peanut butter cookie cupcakes with the same frosting, only adding peanut butter to the icing and drizzling with peanut butter.
I then topped the plain chocolate with my whipped cream cheese frosting and leftover sponge toffee shards.
A mixed dozen went to a lady I'd made a deal with on kijiji; offering her a dozen cupcakes of her choice for a dozen mason jars, in which I plan on making cupcakes and brownies. Six went to my lovely neighbors, who are more than happy to be my guinea pigs, and six stayed here. Our 6 are gone, lovingly devoured by my husband and babies.
Cupcakes don't last long around these parts, guess I'm doing something right.
Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
1 pkg. Cream Cheese
1 C Butter
1 t. Clear Vanilla
4-5 C Icing sugar
~Whip butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy.
Add vanilla, beat again.
Add icing sugar, whipping until incorporated and at your preferred consistency. (I like to pipe mine.)
Letting Go and Linkables...
While I work at creating printable links for all of my recipes, I thought I'd share a picture of this sexy beast.
It was a special order for a co-worker of my husband and, I'm not gonna lie, it was hard to let go of. I reeeeeeeeally wanted to keep it and eat the whole thing. With a fork. No plates, knives or napkins required.
A moist, 4 layer, spiced carrot cake, topped with a whipped vanilla cream cheese frosting. It was topped with roasted, sugared walnuts. (I could have done without the nuts, but wouldn't have complained while it was getting in mah belleh.)
Enjoy. With your eyes. That's all I'm doing too.
Peanut Butter Butter Tarts and Beautiful Boys...
Always in the mood for peanut butter, and frequently thinking about my mother's butter tarts, I decided to blend the two.
Mine will never come close to Mom's, but I made these my own. Rich and sweet, they bring back memories of my childhood. Even now, at 30, I still ask her to make them when we're going to be together. There's just something about baked goods from your mother that can't compare to anything else. I'm convinced there's a little extra love baked in when she's making something for me. I hope my boys feel the same about me and my baking when they grow up.
The smell of sugar and warm chocolate, baking cakes or brownies, chocolate chip cookies and butter tarts. I hope that in 30 years, when they're sitting in their homes, they smell something sweet and think of me; about the love that went into everything I made.
Pâte Brisée (Short Crust Pastry)
Recipe Adapted Courtesy of Joy of Baking
(Printable Recipe)
1 1/4 Cups All-Purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 Tablespoon White Sugar
1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter, chilled, and cut into 1 inch pieces
1/8 to 1/4 Cup Ice water
~The recipe on Joy of Baking called for the use of a food processor. I have one but it just wouldn't work for me. Go figure, two babies, why should anything be easy? If you prefer the processor method, see the attached link.
In a bowl, mix flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in (I used a pastry cutter but you could use two butter knives) the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal, or small peas.
Pour 1/8 cup of the ice water into your mixture and blend with your hands until the dough holds together when pinched between your fingers. (You may need to add a little more water; I used almost the whole 1/4 Cup.)
Gather the dough into a ball and then wrap in plastic wrap and flatten into a disk. Put it in the fridge for at least an hour to chill the butter and relax the gluten in the flour.
After your hour is up, place your dough on a lightly floured surface (I placed mine between two sheets of wax paper; less mess... I'm all about less mess!) and roll it out until it's about 1/4" thick. Cut it into 12 4" rounds. (Make them big enough to fill your muffin tin cup; this allows maximum fillage!)
Once you've filled your muffin cups, cover and put back in the fridge for half an hour or so while you make your filling.
Peanut Butter Filling
1/3 C Butter (I used Salted, just personal preference)
1 C Light Brown Sugar
2 Large Eggs
1 t Vanilla
1/4 C light cream (half & half)
1/3-1/2 C Peanut Butter
*Optional additions of raisins or nuts
With an electric or hand mixer, cream the butter and brown sugar. Beat in your eggs, one at a time and then add your vanilla.
Stir in the cream and peanut butter until mixture is smooth.
*If you're using nuts or raisins, place a spoonful of them in the bottom of each shell.
Fill your unbaked shells with filling and then place in a 375° oven for 15-20 minutes or until shells have nicely browned and filling has set.
Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
If you dare.
Sass and Sponge Toffee..
Sometimes it just hits me. Tonight, it was while I was cleaning up after supper; vaccuuming, picking up the tornado of toys, doing dishes, wiping yogurt and ketchup off of the dinner table and high chair. I'm a mom. Of two boys. 2 and 1.
It hit me like a smack in the face. I'm the boss of two little people. They look to me for guidance (maybe I should stop eating dry Cinnamon Toast Crunch, or at the very least, share it.) and reassurance. I host a wicked dance party. I am a teacher, a jungle gym, a housekeeper, a bo-bo kisser, a potty trainer, a restaurateur, a hugger, a kisser, a pony, a locator of lost items, and a cuddle partner. I am a jack of all trades. I am a mother.
After a particularly hellish day full of sass and tears, I remind myself of that. Of how lucky I am. Of how great they are. That I AM teaching them (note to self: easy on the f-bomb), I AM doing an alright job.
Enjoy these non-hellish chocolate covered sponge toffees. Super easy to make, it won't even cut into your dance party time.
Sponge Toffee (Also called Angel Food Candy)
Recipe adapted from: Allrecipes.com
(Printable Recipe)
1 Cup White Sugar
1 Cup Dark Corn Syrup
1 T White Vinegar
1 T Baking Soda
1/2 t Vanilla
3-4 Cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Butter a 9 x 13 in. baking dish.
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, and vinegar. Cook, stirring until all sugar is dissolved.
Heat without stirring until the mixture reaches 300° on a candy thermometer. If you don't have one, remove from heat when a small bit of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads.
Remove from heat and stir in baking soda. Mixture will expand and become light and airy.
|Explosion of delicious!
Pour into buttered pan but don't spread it, it probably won't fill the dish.
|Yes, YES!
Allow it to cool completely before breaking into pieces.
|Yummy without chocolate too!
Melt your chocolate chips in the microwave or over a double boiler and dip your sponge toffee pieces in the chocolate.
Place on wax paper to set. (I refrigerate to set quickly and then store in covered containers.)
Boys and Bacon...
|Chicken Crescent Roll Pinwheels and Garlic Spaghetti
No matter how many times I open one, or how old I get, the *POP* of the Pillsbury can gets me every single time. I always think I'm ready, but I'm not. It doesn't matter if I dig the tip of the spoon in slowly, which, let's face it, only prolongs the agony, or if I jab it in fast. The explosion of dough makes me jump.
I've been on a "let's incorporate crescent rolls or biscuits or wiener wraps into every other meal" kick lately. Mostly because they were on sale at the grocery store, but also because it's so friggin' easy and delicious and EVERYONE will eat it.
I had a little helper in the kitchen for this particular concoction. Always eager to help, Gabe pulled his little foot stool into the kitchen and got the party started. Daddy had taken Oliver out on the town, so it was just the two of us.
Before we did anything, we prepped our bacon. Bacon tastes good with everything, doesn't it? I think it's a scientific fact. I bake our bacon. It saves my stove top from needing to be scrubbed and it just tastes better. (In my opinion.)
|My Bacon Boy..
It was time to chop the bacon but G had other plans...
|Full slices would be better Mom...
|Happy Helper!
And Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
And Pepsi.
Back to the meal..
|Tell me this isn't a big ol' pile of delicious...
|My delicate placement method...Keep in mind, I had 2 year old help.

Ruffles and Nuggets..
After our delicious multi-course meal and cheapo dessert from last night, I knew I'd get my ruffle cake done today.
After some cursing at my lack of a) a cake stand with domed top, b) a proper leveling tool, and c) a serious lack of eyeballing cake layering skills (due to being poked, prodded, and pulled on by two little people) I got the beauty layered and crumb coated.
I cheated a little with this cake, I used a boxed French Vanilla cake mix and my own tried and true chocolate cake recipe.
Tonight for supper we had a regal sampling of chicken nuggets, french fries, meatballs and gravy, and capped it off with my five layer ruffle cake.
Not bad for my first time!
For the frosting, I tweaked (by eye) my standard buttercream. Again, I'll attempt to list it out..
I needed a lot to fill layers, crumb coat, and ruffle so I doubled my usual cupcake amount.
1 Lb Butter
2 T Vanilla
6-8 Cups Powdered Sugar
1/2-2/3 C Heavy Whipping Cream
(Food Coloring if desired, I used Wilton Gel in Teal)
Whip butter until almost white, add vanilla.
Add half the powdered sugar, whip well.
Add whipping cream until incorporated.
Add more powdered sugar until you've reached your desired consistency.
Add color.
Frost! (I ruffled, but clearly preference is key. )
Enjoy, we're all in a sugar coma!

Remote teaching, distance learning or team teaching?
Webinar hosted by TeachingEnglish
Monday, December 15, 2014
Due to a lack of of qualified and experienced teachers in Uruguay, English is being taught in 2000+ primary classes all across the country via video conferencing, using teachers from elsewhere (including Argentina, the Philippines and Mexico). Because there are two teachers, a classroom teacher (CT) and a remote (RT), a new type of methodology is being developed that combines elements of distance learning, team teaching and blended learning, but which also requires a unique approach.

Alcohol and Drug Addiction in South Carolina
South Carolina has been feeling the adverse effects of the devastating opioid epidemic plaguing the rest of the United States. In 2016, for instance, reporters showed that there was an increase in the incidents of drug deals, prescription drug abuse, and drug overdose deaths in the state.
Addiction Facts in South Carolina
However, the drug and alcohol abuse problem in the state has not been receiving the attention that it deserves. This is in spite of the fact that many local residents continue struggling with addiction in much the same way as other people living in areas with higher rates of substance trafficking, abuse, and addiction.
Even so, research studies have pointed out the fact that alcohol, methamphetamine, prescription medications, and heroin contribute to the highest rates of addiction in South Carolina.
Although there are not many data sets on alcohol, methamphetamine, and opioid abuse in South Carolina, many residents struggle with these substances on a daily basis. The great majority of these drugs come into the state from Miami and Mexico.
The state also reports that opioid overdoses cause just as many deaths as accidental road accidents and crashes. Further, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention – the CDC – has stated that opioid overdose deaths in the state increased by more than 9 percent between 2014 and 2015. Additionally, media reports from 2016 showed that the percentage change is most likely higher than ever before.
Even so, the drug and alcohol abuse landscape in the state has been changing in recent years. Although methamphetamine used to be the most commonly abused substance in South Carolina, heroin has quickly been surpassing it in terms of substance abuse.
This is because the state has been cracking down on the main ingredients required to produce and manufacture methamphetamine – particularly pseudoephedrine. However, drug cartels have been increasingly marketing heroin to make up for the losses they have made from the statewide crackdown on meth.
Other opioids have also been contributing to the drug crisis in South Carolina. In 2015, for instance, more than 58 people in Charleston County lost their lives as a result of an opioid overdose while Horry County lost 80 lives the following year to this class of drugs.
Addiction Treatment in South Carolina
South Carolina is like other states in the sense that it has several facilities offering comprehensive addiction treatment and rehabilitation services. If you suspect that you might have a substance use disorder, you should check into one of these facilities so that you can get the help that you need to achieve full recovery and sobriety.

About Beaver Creek
Nothing defines "first-class resort" as perfectly as Beaver Creek, with its immaculately groomed slopes, charming village, heated pathways, escalators and some of the best skiing and snowboarding Colorado has to offer. This family-friendly village is just a couple of minutes up the hill from the conveniences found in Avon, but it offers a world-class resort living experience that feels worlds away. The 18-hole premier golf course has some of the most picturesque holes in the valley, while wintertime skiing offers guests a unique village-to-village experience connecting Beaver Creek to Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead. The Vilar Performing Arts Center attracts big-name acts throughout the winter and summer months, offering a performance schedule so diverse that it rivals what you'd find in large cities. The Resort's slogan, "Not exactly roughing it," captures its elegance and luxury perfectly. Real estate includes condominiums near and around the Village's core, where European architectural influences transport residents and guests abroad. Impressive ski-in/ski-out homes scattered around Beaver Creek's base areas, as well as golf course properties below the village core, round out this gated community that's quaint in size but massive in its beauty, luxury, privacy and charm. Beaver Creek Resort is consistently ranked among the best ski areas in North America. Known for its impeccable service, pristine grooming, steep-and-deep runs, and the Vail Valley's home to World Cup alpine skiing with the annual Birds of Prey men's ski races, Beaver Creek offers a skiing and snowboarding experience that's hard to match anywhere in the country. When bakers serve warm chocolate chip cookies every day at the base of the mountain to boot, who could complain?

Successful brands use data to direct business strategy, optimise customer journeys and craft relevant content to build long-term relationships. The beauty of loyalty is it's the most influential mechanism for capturing customer data while operating within data privacy regulations because the fundamental principle of loyalty is a customer willingly volunteers their data in exchange for benefits. As they opt-in to the terms of the program, marketers can serve up offers and content that helps emotionally bond the customer to the brand. However, many brands are struggling to pull insights from their data from which to build the strategy and campaigns to make their data come to life for them.
To start their data and insights strategy, marketers should consider their primary goals, likely personalisation, comprehensive view of customer, customer growth, churn reduction, etc., from which to establish KPIs that align with business needs. These KPIs go beyond loyalty program mechanics and metrics to affect all business units, from operations carrying out customer experience to merchandising determining the products to feature to marketing as a whole in making acquisition more cost-effective.
The point to remember is that the goal of both technology and strategies is to make data useful. This may require that some data is pared away or left unused. As such, the platforms and strategies that brands choose to adopt should focus on structuring data into unified, accessible views that will enable the team to design successful strategies.
Using the right analytic tools can help combat data overwhelm and enable marketers to interpret data efficiently to craft the campaigns that influence customer behavior. Some examples include:
From where Aimia sees it, tackling the data and analytics challenges can be done through both finely tuned martech and expert resources that bring data to life to create insights that can translate to action. This is an exciting time for brands to differentiate from competition, demonstrate their customer obsession, and continue to grow their customer base and revenue.

kitchen icone
design by jy le corre from arthur bonnet «signatures» line
18th-century furniture revisited
Icône is a kitchen for chefs, and combines the nobility of its materials and a freely reinterpreted Directoire style. « The reference to the Directoire style », explains designer Jean-Yves Le Corre, « is something that imposed itself on us quite naturally. Simple and refined lines and discrete but identifiable decorative elements: Directoire style expresses timeless modernity, in keeping with Arthur Bonnet's wishes. » With Icône, its lozenges and high mouldings, the spirit of French cabinetmaking will inhabit your kitchen.
The comfort of a great layout
With its central island cooking and sink unit surmounted by a specific rectangular hood, the kitchen layout harmoniously dissociates preparation areas from storage areas. Two showcases frame a dresser equipped to house cookery books, recipes and tips acquired over the years.
On the material side…
Icône is also the result of a clever combination of noble materials: the warmth of solid golden-coloured oak blends with the slate-coloured quartz stone work surface. Aged shell-shaped metal handles give this kitchen a workshop atmosphere.
Ingenuity and tradition
Just because you have a taste for tradition doesn't mean you should be deprived of Arthur Bonnet's clever innovations! Discover all the fittings and specific pieces of furniture concealed behind the lovely Icône fronts: Arthur Bonnet's ingenious spice and bottle racks, the sliding components included in the cooking-sink island unit, the large 1.2m sliding components capable of housing 16 bottles or the fitted pilasters (spice rack, tray storage and broom storage): all the details are there to help you enjoy this character kitchen. The choice of electrical appliances also bears witness to a real taste for cooking, with top-of-the-range equipment by ROSIERES: double oven with mirror finish, gas and induction cooking hob, fridge-freezer and dishwasher and an island hood exclusively designed for Arthur Bonnet by ROBLIN.

15th Annual Firefighters Memorial Ride to honor SIX Ohio Firefighter Line of Duty Deaths
On Sunday May 26, 2019, the 15th Annual Firefighters Memorial Ride (the FFMR) will take place starting at the Cleveland Firefighters Memorial, (the Memorial) in front of the Cleveland Science Center (east of Browns Stadium). As in past years, we will honor and remember Fallen Firefighters/Paramedics. During calendar year 2017 there were Ninety Three (93) Line of Duty deaths , the majority were cardiac or similar health issues. However, vehicle wrecks or roadway safety resulted in Twenty Three (23) Line of Duty deaths, caused by careless drivers not paying attention. Those line of duty deaths could have been prevented if the public were more aware of slowing down and pulling over when they see safety vehicles stopped on the road or highways.
John "KIKS" Kikol, President of the Firefighters Memorial Ride, indicated that the Firefighters Memorial Ride Ceremony at 9:30 AM will be honor and remember the following Six you Ohio Fallen Firefighters/ Paramedics:
Madison Township-Kunkle FD-Ass't Chief Rodney D Baker - Last Alarm- March 16, 2018
Paint Creek FD Greenfield Ohio Firefighter Joseph M Patterson -Last Alarm- June 24, 2018

Monica Robins of WKYC will be the Master of Ceremonies and will open the 9:30 AM Ceremony with the singing of the National Anthem. Speakers include Cleveland Chief of Fire Angelo Calvillo. An estimated one thousand (1000) motorcycles are expected to stage their motorcycles on Alfred Lerner Way beginning at 8:00 AM until 9:15 AM. Additionally, the FFMR will award five $1000 scholarships to students of Firefighters/EMS in NE Ohio. The FFMR processional ride will begin at 10:00 AM from downtown Cleveland at the Firefighters Memorial and travel through the following communities and their Fire Houses: Cleveland, Lakewood, Fairview Park, North Olmsted, Westlake, Bay Village, Avon Lake and Sheffield Lake and ending at Lake Erie- Harley-Davidson in Avon at approximately 11:30. The detailed route is available on our website www.firefghtersmemorialride.com.
This is a MEMORIAL ride to honor Ohio's Fallen Firefighters/EMS and will result in various intersections along the route being closed for approximately twenty minutes to allow the procession of motorcycles to wind its way from downtown Cleveland to Rock N Roll City Harley Davidson on the thirty-three-mile ride. The Ceremony and Processional Ride will take place regardless of the weather. Interested motorcyclists can still register at Rock N' Roll City Harley Davidson in Cleveland, this year's FFMR sponsor and destination for food and entertainment.
The public is invited to attend the 9:30 AM Ceremony and support the processional ride along the route. For more information please go to www.firefightersmemorialride.com or contact John "KIKS" Kikol, President of the FFMR at 440-263-8121.

Learning Spanish Can Enhance Your Vacation Experience
By: admin
If you are wondering why people are rushing to learn Spanish these days, it might be hard to pinpoint one particular reason. If you are an American, your reason for learning Spanish may be far different than a European who has decided it's time to learn the language.
So, why is learning Spanish important to so many people? Let us give you some facts first:
- Spanish has become the second language of the United States
- The Spanish language is gaining importance as a second or third language in many European countries
- There are over 400 million Spanish speakers around the globe, only exceeded by those groups speaking English, Chinese, and Hindustani.
- Spanish is the fourth most popular language in the world and the native, or official, language on four different continents.
So, enough for the geography lesson. So why should you make the time and investment to learn Spanish? Let me tell you some of the more popular reasons why people like you and me want to learn Spanish:
It's Very Easy to Learn
The Spanish language is truly one of the easiest foreign languages to learn. Much of the Spanish vocabulary is similar to English. Better yet, written Spanish is almost completely phonetic. Even a complete beginner can look at almost any Spanish word and tell how it should be pronounced. Of course, there are a few differences in the grammar and verb structure, but the basic grammar is relatively straightforward enough to allow you to carry on a meaningful conversation after just a few lessons.
Learning Spanish is Fun
If you like to take on a basic challenge, then learning to talk, read, and speak Spanish is your cup of tea. As far as difficulty, learning the Spanish language is quite basic and you can really have some fun in the process. The enjoyment involved in mastering a second language and being able to speak with native speakers can be extremely rewarding. The thrill of having a second language also opens up a whole new world, and different cultures, to you.
Enhance Your Travel and Vacation Experiences
Knowing how to speak Spanish expands your options when you scour the globe for a new vacation experience. Countries that you have avoided in the past due to the language barrier now become prime targets for your new travels. There is nothing worse than traveling to a new country when you cannot communicate with the local population. Imagine being able to converse with people in most Central and South American countries (and many European countries) in their native language. Whether you just learn a few common Spanish phrases or learn Spanish vocabulary and pronunciation like a native speaker, you will find that it can really open new doors to you while increasing your fun and excitement in a new land.
Improve Your Job Skills
It's amazing how many new jobs are now requiring candidates to possess multilingual skills in order to meet the qualifications of the position. For instance, certain regions in the United States have a significant Hispanic population and influence. Employment candidates with Spanish as a second language are highly sought after in these areas and are paying a premium to attract them. Being able to speak Spanish is also a big resume booster and can lead to a better paying job, regardless of your area of employment.
Hopefully we have provided a reasonable answer as to the question posed earlier; "why is learning Spanish important for so many people?" We have touched on the more common reasons given by many Spanish students for wanting to learn this wonderful language, but not a comprehensive list for sure. Of course, each person has their own motivation for taking Spanish lessons. But regardless of your motivation for wanting to speak Spanish, the experience can be fun and rewarding and leave you with a new skill that you can use for a lifetime.

The most popular style was the molded pedestal stem. After 1800 the edge of the foot is usually folded upwards & most had solid tops. The most spectacular role of the salver was in a dessert pyramid comprised of two to five salvers of graduated diameter set one upon the other to create a pyramid effect. Each layer bore an arrangement of glassware (syllabubs) filled with jellies, creams, & sweetmeats. The smallest salver at the top was usually crowned with a 'Top Glass' for preserved fruit. And you thought Martha designed that look????
Interestingly, these stands were first made in America in the 1770s in Philadelphia. South Boston Flint Glass Works listed the form among its products in 1818; their salvers ranged from 8-15 inches in diameter and cost from $1.67 to $6.00 each. The following year, the firm extended the range down to 6 and up to 17 inches.
In the 1800s these stands were in everyone's homes. And...now...face it...even a stack of Twinkies would look good on them. I use them in my shop for display pedestals as you can see.

Manga Review | No Game No Life Please!
Who do they think is going to appreciate the word 'plenipotentiary'? That's one cumbersome word if you ask me. Long story short the average reader is gonna need a dictionary or Google at the ready to read this book. It's littered with words that are not commonly used by most people. As for me, I've never been a fan of complicated things when an easier much more user friendly option is available, but with No Game No Life those kind of eccentricities are to be expected.
In No Game No life Please! We follow the exploits of one of the side characters from the No Game No Life main series, Izuna Hatsuse. The way the story is written, it's not necessarily what you'd expect from the standard plot of the main series, as this is a spin-off from the point of view of another character, who is dare I say, innocent to the ways of the mature world. The story is portrayed from this character's point of view, so no matter how mature it gets, it's still treated as though it were a kids tale that sometimes happens to stumble upon stuff that kids don't understand. We do get to see both protagonist from the main series, as well as other other characters, but it's got more of a short skit comic feel to it. This is because there are no real big stakes in this first volume, and each of the chapters seem to be an excuse to show some lolli fan-service. It's even on the back of the front cover… O.O
If you're not a fan of lollis, or indifferent to them like I am then this book is gonna make you cringe. It's littered with the stuff.
Oh and did I mention that this manga is lewd yet? Oh it's quite lewd. In fact the front cover has a warning label that states that the book has mature content, which I assumed meant some basic ecchi, but oh no. This manga has some real P-life ecchi in the form of some good old fashion naked boob shiggle. For me the main character had zero appeal to her as she's just a kid, but the other ladies around her…. Oooohhh….
Oh, and that image above is something I snatched from a scanlation for the review. The real images is much more lewd. I present Exhibit A to the court:
@Momo_x0x @DKSKris When @yenpress put 'warning explicit content' on a book, Good damn…. They mean it 😳 (@SiteTBS review in progress…) pic.twitter.com/015ZDP56qL
— Qudduws (Q) 🏴🇹🇹 (@Lpgardian) June 25, 2017
Oh lord rest a hand on my shoulders, because my thoughts have so much sins. ?
The ecchi in this one is propelled even further by it's exceptional art. I'm gonna get even more lewd here, so skip a line or two if you're a bit sensitive to that kind of stuff. In the manga each of the boobs on display are quite distinct. No two characters have the same shaped boobs, and they don't all look like those hooker boobs that are usually presented to us in these types of books. They're more natural looking shapes, and for the most part they fit the characters. I found the shiggle to a healthy mixture of what I consider to be more realistic boob shapes, and they do get the engines going if you know what I mean. ?
No Game No Life Please! also features the type of art I prefer in the manga I read. Clean, clutter free, cute characters in a beautifully illustrated manner. The backgrounds are detailed enough to give a sense of the environment, but not as detailed as stuff like the Jojo line of books. I like to think of it as the baby bear's porridge of the manga world. Not too little detail to seem lazy, and not too much that the background steals the attention, or makes it difficult to read. Just a healthy middle ground.
As for the personalities of the characters. We get the main character, Izuna who is an adorable innocent adolescent Werebeasts with a filthy potty mouth (she's to honest). In a way I just think she doesn't know any better. Then we get the attractive childhood friend type, Stephanie, who always seems to be up to some scheme that ultimately blows up in her face (she may not be the most clever, but Steph is waifu, "Love her!"). The two Flügel sisters, Jibril & Azriel, and their dominative personalities,
the old man… no more need to be said about Him, the mischievously devilish Dhampir, Plum and her fine petite booty, and of course the brother and sister rulers, Sora & Shiro, who make a couple cameos, but I hope they are fazed out a bit more in future books, or at least the brother.
Hmm…. wait, I think I'm forgetting someone… just a sec, let me mentally recall all the boobs. Hmmm… Ahh… I remember there is one other character, that's important to this manga's plot, I'd even go so far as to say she's probably the most important character to the plot after Izuna. I'm speaking of the leader of the Werebeasts, Miko. By the end of this first volume she makes an interesting revelation that I think sets up the subsequent volumes in a really nice way. I won't spoil what it is, but it got me really interested in reading more volumes of No Game No life Please!
Final Verdict
Leave your innocents at the door when picking up this one, because though it may have a cute innocent character for a protagonist, the rest of stuff around her is anything but innocent. This book is something that fans of the No Game No Life main series should like, dues to all the familiar characters, as well as fans of good old fashioned shiggle. Just keep in mind that it is littered with lollis.

Apodyopsis, what is it? What does it mean?
Allow me to explain.
First, I'll set the scene.
It's a nice warm summer's day, and you're just hanging around in a bar, or in a beer garden, enjoying a lovely and refreshingly cool beer with some good friends of yours.
Cue some smokin' hot girl or guy walking into said bar or beer garden and sitting somewhere facing you, right in your line of sight.
You take a good look at them, what they're wearing, and that's when you start to do it.
Your imagination takes over and their clothes slowly fizzle and melt away, leaving their naked body exposed to your mind's eye.
You may have done it discreetly, you may have done it brazenly, either way you have just undressed that very person with your eyes in every sense of the term.
And that act itself is Apodyopsis.
Apodyopsis Word Origins
Despite being a word not found in modern dictionaries, Apodyopsis is derived from Ancient Greek.
Although the Greek 'apo' has many different meanings as a prefix, the Greek 'dy' is used with 'apo' in the word 'apodyterium', meaning a room where people would undress.
This word is similar in structure to Apodyopsis, even though the latter half differs.
This latter part of Apodyopsis, 'opsis', relates to vision and sight, one such example in modern language being the word 'optics'.
So put all of this together and what we essentially get is the action of undressing a person with your eyes.
Make sure to tell your friends about it and make sure to use it at every opportunity you get so you can get this awesome word the recognition it deserves!

From 31 December 2020, all ships of 500 GT and above – regardless of the flag they are flying – will be required to carry an inventory of hazardous materials (IHM) when calling a port or anchorage of a country that is a member of the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA). Failure to do so may result in penalisation.
The European Union's Ship Recycling Regulations (EUSRR) that came into force in December 2018 pose certain obligations to all ships of 500 gross tonnage (GT) and above, flying the flag of countries in the EU or EEA, with certain exceptions such as warships, naval auxiliary or other ships on non-commercial service.
In addition, there is a requirement in EUSRR that applies to not only ships flying the flag of countries in the EU or EEA but also to all ships of 500 GT and above, regardless of the flag they are flying, when calling a port or anchorage of a country that is a member of the EU or EEA.
The requirement is that from 31 December 2020, all such ships should carry an inventory of hazardous materials (IHM) that is compliant with EUSRR, and for ships flying a flag of country outside the EU/EEA region, this must be accompanied by a statement of compliance from the flag state.
Port state control officers will control the certificate and the quality of the IHM and in case of non-compliance, ships may be warned, detained, dismissed or excluded from the ports or offshore terminals under the jurisdiction of a member state.
For existing ships, the IHM should be based on visual and sampling checks and include the approximate quantity and location of a number of specified hazardous materials on board. While the IHM can be generated by own resources of a shipowner, there are IHM service providers, including classification societies, which already offer such services.
The following guidance documents on this subject are available for users through:
When external companies are used, visual and sampling checks require IHM service providers to board each ship. Experience has shown that the whole process may take three months or longer, depending on the size and construction of the ship and how the desktop review has been prepared by the shipowner.
The International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) provides the following guidance about IHM surveys: "The initial desktop review may be performed remotely and followed up by onboard verification at a later date, subject to flag administration's approval."
In the present COVID-19 situation however, possibilities of having IHM service providers and surveyors on board is limited due to travel restrictions and lock-down measures arising from COVID-19.
It is therefore recommended that owners and operators of existing ships, who trade in EU and EEA countries, plan well in advance to comply with EUSRR IHM requirements by the 31 December 2020 deadline.

Well bad news all, the new gbb sling I received last week has died. She arrived to me extremely dehydrated and sluggish, I feed her one time( or so I thought) tried to nurse her back to health and failed. I am bummed. After cleaning out her enclosure I noticed that she just killed the tiny cricket and never ate. This was a great gift from my amazing girlfriend we are both disappointed.

OCWR Brown Bag Lunch Series: Supreme Court Preview of Employment Cases
In its upcoming October term the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) will be deciding several important cases that could change or clarify the rights and obligations of covered employees and employing offices under the CAA. Some of these cases deal with substantive rights and protections, which would affect litigants in both judicial and administrative proceedings, and which could also require employing offices to reevaluate their employment policies and practices. Another case the SCOTUS will consider this term concerns a matter of civil procedure that could apply in CAA cases brought in federal court, and might also influence administrative proceedings.

Shauna Hoj is the mother of Taylor Hoj. Taylor is in his last few weeks of MTC training and will very soon be off to the land of the Icelanders. Shauna sent me an email a few days ago with a link to the Danish Mission Newsletter. The link is http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?aeojpo41sn3viio. It just so happened that in this particular newsletter, pictures of her son, Taylor, and his two companions in the MTC were shown. So the newest three elders about to arrive on the scene are:
Taylor Hoj from Salt Lake City.
Skyler Wilden from Henderson, Nevada.
Samuel Whitworth from Idaho.
The newsletter also included the picture of another senior couple who I had not heard about yet: Öldungur & Systir Callaway, who I assume are recently arrived in Iceland. Don't know anything about them. Will need to start asking some questions!

Önnur hjón! (Another couple)
A colleague just came into my office with some happy news. He said that a couple from his home town in Nevada just got their mission call to serve in Iceland. They are Nick & Bonnie Bowler from Logandale, Nevada. At first they were going to Denmark. Brother Bowler served his mission there. But then they were asked to go to Iceland. They enter the MTC in March 2011. Here is their picture. And hallelujah for willing servants to go to a land they know nothing about!

Thanks to the development of the medical science, we now can choose the best age to get pregnant. Age is the most important factor that influences a woman's fertility. Find out what is the best age to have a baby for a woman!
Improve your chances of conceiving with fertility supplements from Jiji
1. Fertility in your 20s
When is a woman most fertile? From a medical point of view, a woman reaches her fertility peak in her 20s. At this age you still have plenty of healthy eggs. How many eggs does a woman have? You are born with 1-2 million of eggs, but only 300,000-500,000 remain by the time you reach puberty.
When you are in your 20s, you also have a much lower risk of a miscarriage or conceiving a baby with serious genetic abnormalities like Down syndrome. Diabetes, high blood pressure, uterine fibroids, and other fertility issues are also less likely to happen before the age of 30.
Women in their 20s have more energy and resilience, which allows them to tend to a newborn baby during the night and still feel great all day long. However, having a baby before 30 may interfere with your career aspirations, so you need to set your priorities straight.
2. Fertility in your 30s
You've probably heard that the average time to get pregnant by age increases in your 30s: it may take six cycles and up to conceive the baby. However, the age from 30 to 39 is believed to be the golden age for motherhood: you are financially stable enough to provide for the baby while your fertility hasn't deteriorated too dramatically.
However, you shouldn't wait for too long, especially if you're planning to have more than one child. Try to get pregnant and give birth to your first baby by the time you're 35 to avoid a higher risk of miscarriage or conceiving a baby with genetic abnormalities.
By the time you turn 38-39, your chances of conceiving drop significantly. You may need to seek help from a medical professional to diagnose and treat your fertility issues. Keep in mind that women over 35 have a higher chance of needing a C-section.
3. Fertility in your 40s
Even if you haven't done any special research on fertility, you probably already know the answer to the question: when is a woman least fertile? There is no going around it – a woman's chance to have a baby is at its lowest by the time she celebrates her 40th birthday.
The number of eggs you have drops significantly, as does their quality: older eggs have a much higher risk of miscarriage and genetic problems. However, it doesn't mean that you won't be able to conceive at this age.
After you turn 40, every month counts. You have a much better chance of getting pregnant naturally at 41 than you do at 43. You'll likely need medical help to conceive and then to maintain the pregnancy, since pregnancy after 40 statistics reveal that the older you are, the more likely you are to encounter various pregnancy complications.
4. Conclusion
In a world where social, economic, and medical situation is always changes, there is no ideal age to become a mother: you have more eggs and energy in your 20s, but it's harder to support your family financially, while in your 40s you have more financial security but a lower chance to conceive.
Given all that and the data on what age are women most fertile, most doctors advise their female patients to start trying to get pregnant with their first baby by the time they're 27 to 30, although being a younger or older mother is not just possible, but also may have its advantages!

RHC Announces RAT Tail Distortion Cable and RapcoHorizon Volume Control Cable
RHC has launched two new specialty cables through its brands RAT FX and RapcoHorizon. The RAT FX RAT Tail distortion cable offers distortion built into the cable itself while the RapcoHorizon V-Cable gives you volume control.
The RAT Tail distortion pedal is built with the same clipping diodes as vintage RAT pedals. Its connector has a dial with a knob that selects between three modes: true bypass, distortion overdrive with unity gain, and distortion with +3dB gain.
RapcoHorizon's V-Cable is updated for 2018 and is suited for acoustic or electric instruments with or without tone and volume knobs. The knob allows for adjusting the volume via the cable and can also be used in an off position to function as a mute. "With a "pop-free" guarantee, players can interchange instruments without worrying about unplugging sounds that can infringe on their performances," the company writes. "A 500K Ohm version ensures compatibility with virtually any pickup configuration on the market."
Both the RAT FX RAT Tail distortion cable and RapcoHorizon V-Cable come in 10, 18, and 25-foot cable lengths. They have prices starting at $69.99 and $59.99, respectively.
