Good. I would like warm crusty bread slathered with butter followed by chocolate cake with chocolate fudge icing. Thank you. ---

And a pony, while I’m at it? BTW, I’ll be having a big piece of KILLER chocolate cake this afternoon when I go out to lunch, and I will think fondly of all of you. 'Til it’s gone. ---

Well I plan on making my home-made chocolate cake with pecan fudge icing this afternoon. You pour the icing on while it’s warm, and it hardens into real fudge. It includes my “secret” ingredient (cinnamon) which makes it extra delicious. So 😛 ---

The shower head in the master bath has several dozen tiny holes for the water to rain down. Recently, I noticed a couple of the little streams were shooting off at weird angles. I turned off the water and, being blind as a bat, closely examined the shower head. Each little hole had a tiny amount of some crusty mineral-ish goop on it, causing the water to spew off in other directions. I cleaned off all the crust and now all the water flows the same. But the pressure is way down now because the crust constricted the flow and made the shower punchier. The silly part? You read all this! 😃 ---
