You know what my problem is? I'm way too ambitious in the morning, and then my day is a series of lowered expectations until bedtime strikes. Like, this morning I'm contemplating buying a new bicycle, and reading online stuff has made me all ambitious to buy a recumbent bike (long body).

Thank goodness, the bike store doesn't open until noon.

Whiskey fudge is delicious.

God, that sounds amazing.

Looking at that recipe I think I could find a way to tweak it and make it less sweet (less milk product and maybe replace some of the chocolate with unsweetened).

My recipe review is that the fudge never really set. It's rather gooey, and if I kept it out of the fridge, it might almost liquefy. I didn't use all of the bacon recommended in the recipe, and I wish I had, because in some bites, the bacon is overwhelmed by fudgy sweetness. I would like to try this again with a proper fudge recipe (one that involves heating sugar and milk and the soft-ball stage.)

It is very sweet fudge, so you could totally try it with darker chocolate, or less sugary liquid.

I would get the Andouille & Sweet Potato Biscuits, shrift

Me too. Unless I got overwhelmed and got the old standby (two eggs over medium, bacon crispy, potatoes).

Hmm.

Am pondering whether it would be possible to make a low carb variation on the bacon fudge theme.

I'm sure it would be -- there are no-wheat fudge mixes out there already! -- but then the question arises as to WHY WOULD YOU?

I can barely imagine the attraction of bacon salt, but bacon fudge is totally beyond my ken.

I think Daybreak is a difficult show to watch out of order - because everything he does is built on something he did previously.

Prison Break - still on. Not sure where they're going with it and I heard a bizarro rumor for next season. Casting stuff tied to something that happened last season.

Would love to try bacon fudge - do you suppose that was what Ilan really meant to do when he did those chicken liver truffles?

Snerk. Just got a call from some group looking for donations. The pitch started with, "We have children in Israel who are straying off the path of Yiddishkeit!" (My mom answered it and didn't let them get any further than that. I kinda wanted to know what their solution was.)

OMgoodness, now I want to eat at that restaurant, it looks amazing. I's get either the eggs alexander or the fried green tomato BLT. Probably the latter.

egad, now I need to go look in the kitchen and see how close I can get to a proper brunch-like breakfast. Plus coffee, I must make coffee.

DUB Pies have been achieved, and we have now decided that since it is SO beautiful out, we're going to head out to Coney Island after D's nap. We'll have to be back by 3 to get our groceries delivered, but we should be able to get a good 2 hours of sun and sand if we hit the trains right.

Oooh, Coney Island sounds nice.

I'm heading back to DC today. My train leaves in about two hours, which means I ought to be leaving the house in about one hour. I've still got a bunch of stuff to do first. Need breakfast first, though.
