Somebody Stop Me...

...From eating the whole pan!

I made this Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancake, and it's AWESOME!!!!

Why did I do it on a day when Robb wasn't home, I don't know.  

I've been thinking about it a while, and had a huge container of blueberries to use.

This weekend was just too busy to get to it, so I made it as part of my brunch.

Not only was it SO easy to throw together, but it was a fantastic consistency once finished.  It was crunchy around the edges, chewy like a crepe, and thick like a pancake.  I'd suggest not adding so much cinnamon though, a little less would be good.  I just sprinkled it with powdered sugar, and it was perfect!

I'm already imagining different fruits: peaches, cherries, apples...

Make this today!  For dinner, lunch, brunch, breakfast, or even a snack!  

Daylillies

This year's daylillies. 

I'm still waiting for my third plant to bloom from the Daylilly sale. But, I had to transplant it, it may not be up until next year. 

Made It

200,000 and still counting on my Volvo. 

Happy Birthday Robb!

Happy Birthday Honey!

Tonight we're having dinner at Grand Rover Cellars

 and then playing in Geneva and watching fireworks!

Pajama Party!

On Saturday, our night ride at Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area, was a pajama party!

All the bikers wore pajamas and got glow sticks for the ride.

At the turn around, Century Cycles they served popcorn, snacks, and pop.

Here's I am, relaxing with my snacks before the ride back.

Robb and I before the ride back.

Here I am with my pj's (which actually matched my helmet).

It was really fun, and I love these bike rides!

Bumble Bee

This is Bumble Bee, our new scooter!!!

We got it to "buzz" around on, which is why I called it Bumble Bee.  (and it's bright yellow, so it fits)

Robb will drive this to work in the summer to save on gas.  It gets over 100 mpg, way better than the Jeep's 15 mpg.

Our little Bumble Bee goes about 40 mph max, and is very easy to drive.  It has an electric start, and all you do to go is just turn the handle.  To break you just squeeze the levers, just like a regular bike.  I'm glad, because there's no complicated foot shifting and braking like on a regular motorcycle.  

It's so easy to ride, even I can do it!  I love our new Bumble Bee!!!

Chinese Dessert

Chinese desserts, are, well, strange.  They are either not very sweet, or too sweet.  Most are flavored with strange things, like adzuki beans, or melons.  But, I happen to like most of them!

This is a treat from the China Market that I got a few days ago.  It's a Coconut Bun.

It's literally a bun (like you'd eat with your spaghetti, but stuffed with a coconuty cream frosting, glazed very lightly with sugar and coconut flakes.  

And I happen to love them!
