Dulce De Lache

The Pioneer Woman

Ingredients
4 cups Strongly Brewed Good Coffee
6 ounces, fluid Dulce De Leche (*see Note)
6 Tablespoons Kahlua, More If Preferred
1 cup Heavy Cream
2 Tablespoons Sugar
6 Tablespoons Chocolate, Grated

Preparation Instructions
Add Dulce de Leche to the very hot coffee; stir until completely dissolved and combined. Keep coffee hot.
Combine cream with sugar and whip until stiff.
Add 1 tablespoon Kahlua to each coffee cup. May add 1 1/2 if desired, or may add whiskey or brandy in addition.
Pour the coffee/dulce de leche mixture into each glass. Top with a heaping tablespoon whipped cream and grated chocolate of your choice.
Absolutely sinful!

*Dulce de Leche is sold in the Hispanic aisle of supermarkets, or in Hispanic specialty markets. It is sold in solid 15 ounce blocks, or in cans or bottles in more of a liquid form. You can also find recipes for making your own Dulce de Leche using sweetened condensed milk. Yum!

Sea Change - Aimee Friedman


From the moment Miranda Merchant steps off of Georgia and onto the ferry destined to sweep her off to Selkie Island she is ambushed with fairy tales of the Kracken and mermen. Miranda is six-teen years old and has a scientific way of looking at life, she does not believe in the things of legends and happy endings. She believes in science and logic and must see something before she believes in it, she is not afraid of being smart. She has gone to Selkie Island for the sole purpose of helping her mother get her late grandmothers house ready to sell and along the way Miranda’s personal beliefs are tried by everyone and everything around her. Throughout this book, a coming of age story, you see skeptic Miranda find out that life is full of secrets.
Overall, the story is fascinating but in the end everything was not wrapped up properly. The need to leave a little mystery is understandable so that a sequel can be made, but the ending was rushed and some crucial answers were left out, for instance are the Selkie Island Legends true? are Mermen real? It left one without that feeling of wholeness. On the other hand, the book was filled with just the right amount of southern girl charm and juicy secrets. The description and the reality of the relationship between the poor fisherman and the rich elite just there for the summer was perfect. Through the book the blemishes and the expectations of the southern upper class are exposed, and they are captivating.

The Devouring by Simon Holt


were a pretty decent series. i was a little surprised because i was just reading em to read something. i think i liked them cuz i havnt read the story line over and over again. ya know? nice girl falls for bad boy, and bad boy almost gets nice girl killed and it turns out bad boy really isnt that bad he just had a bed rep. blah blah blah yaaa nooo?
it was refreshing. The girl was strong and did not rely on a boy to rescue her because she was weak and frail and needed some boy to save her .) not that i dont like those books, i just get tired of reading the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. There was a boy and he did help her but she did not rely on him! he was not her crutch. get it?

>,[


So, things i like to do:
cut and paste
critique
play dress up
read

now, what career lets me do all this????
please i wanna know!!!! i wanna be happy when im older!!!
cuz incase you havnt noticed i am a force to be reckoned with when im not happy >.|

During Baby Loss Awareness (9-16 October) We remember all Babies born sleeping, or whom we have carried but never met, or those we have held but could not take home or the ones that came home but didn't stay. Make this your profile status if you or someone you know has suffered the loss of a baby....In Memory of all Lost Angels.
Rest in Peace.

Bird House.

I was having a dream about vampires this morning! My clan of good vampires went to get this clan of bad vampires and i was like a princess! and i was just running around in like this balcony above everyone trying to stay out of the mess and not get killed and then my people captured all the bad people! but then this other clan comes in! and somehow two of them got on my balcony so i jump down to where everyone else is and then i was talking to the leader of the new clan that just walked in the door and for some reason the guy handed me a weapon and i set it down on the table and then a bunch more people came in the door and this guy in a bowler hat came up to me and reached behind me and stabbed me in the back! so i stabbed him in the neck. but then the pain of the guy stabbing me woke me up like i could feel it after i woke up. it was CRAZY!

yesterday i built a bird house! it is awesome opossum.
