Chocolate souffle: check

I finally got to make chocolate soufflé!
And it was probably the best dessert I've ever made!
Toots was going to take step by step pictures for me but I just got to cooking and forgot about telling her when
I finished a step and needed a picture.
But she was able to get a couple pictures of this chocolatey goodness:)

you may have noticed that there were six dishes with the batter in it and only five fully baked ones why is that? Well again our mischivous dog got hungry and thought she might like a snack so she licked the dish clean in about ten seconds. But it was all ok. The soufflé was so rich I couldn't even eat a whole one so the person with only half a soufflé for the rest of mine.

Lots o LOVE and chocolate soufflé!

Happy Thanksgiving!

P.S. I'll be gone for most of this week so I may not be able to post But I'll try to!

So what am I up to?

Hello dears!

So the question what am I up to? The answer is ...

Spending my beautiful saturday afternoon climbing trees

Designing my dream house that would just happen to be in a tree

Planning my trip to Paris

Dreaming about going to another world beyond our fence

and then jumping out of my favorite climbing tree

digging my toes into cool green grass

then give myself a satisfactory jump to tie off my adventure in

the magical tree.

Dear sky

Dear sky...

I was just wondering why are you blue?

Can you ask the clouds to turn into cotton candy?

(Pretty please with cream and sugar and a cherry on top)

Do you ever get mad at airplanes for polluting your beauty?

Thank you for getting in fights with rain,thunder,and lightning (every once and a while).

Please right back soon!

sincerely,

Raggedy Ann

Hi Everone!
I was going to post about this a long time ago but time just slipped through my fingers.

A couple weeks ago my mom, my sister(toots), and I

got to go to an antique store. And I found two little treasures.

An adorable 1960's Raggedy Ann doll

and a red bandana with white flowers all over it(I keep imagining that it used to be one of Audrey Hepburn's bandanas:)

I was admiring my cute clean cut doll with a little homemade dress until a friend came over and I stupidly left Ann on the counter instead of taking her upstairs to be introduced to the other critters on my bed. Within only a couple of hours I heard my mom yelling "Bad dog you give that to me" to my annoying (and still adorable)dog Penny.I ran downstairs to see what my mom was scolding my dog about and when I saw a couple of piles of red hair I knew that Penny had gotten bored and thought "oh look it's a new little doll and she's smiling at me so that MUST mean that she wants to play." So right now Ann has no hair.(sorry about the bad photo I'm not nearly as good of a photographer as Tootse is)
