I should have taken a picture of it to put on here, but we inhaled it. All of it. In less than 5 minutes. Chris first introduced me to this treat when he took me out on one of those awesome and rare things called Date Night. We cleaned up pretty good and he took me to Downtown Atlanta to the Hard Rock Cafe. This was our appetizer before some pretty darn good steaks. I knew that I just HAD to learn how to make it because, let's face it, driving to the Hard Rock every time we got a craving would get crazy expensive. I cannot believe I had gone 33 years without eating this!

I remember one of our first winters in our newly purchased home. I awoke freezing cold and hearing trees explode and fall all around my house. What on EARTH is going on? An ice storm. It was a particularly nasty storm; we had received a few inches of snow and then that snow turned to ice, and a layer of ice 2-3 inches thick was deposited on top of the snow. The result: 70 foot tall pine trees snapping under the weight of the snow and ice taking out power lines, blocking roads and leaving us stranded with no power, no water, no food...we were hopelessly helpless.
We home school our children. It is not in a million years what I ever dreamed of doing. In fact, I have a Sociology Major with a minor in Psychology so people studying is my thing. I swore I'd never home school my children because they would never turn out normal. HAHA! That's the issue with taking a vow--it never works the way you think it will. We are 2 years into our journey now and I have no regrets.
Why is it when I sit down to write something all the thoughts in my head seem to get muted by the voice that says "Uh, do you REALLY believe you have something to say? Do you really think you have something to offer?" Have you heard that voice? I'm quite familiar with it. It haunts me on a daily basis it seems.
