I printed the logo the size I wanted and cut it out. I then traced around it with a toothpick in the buttercream.
She was a bit uncertain of her usual vantage point with the deck missing. The squirrels in her back yard quickly enticed her.
Also known as the brand name "Phernergan", it's an anti-emetic (anti-nausea) medication which is now recommended only be administered via IM (intramuscular) injection. There is a so-called "black box" warning associated with IV use. This medication also has an off-label use (one for which it was not invented, but is useful) for sedation.

UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization) has added the French baguette as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and wrote this about the iconic bread of France, which is also PROTECTED by French law since October 1798 and can ONLY be made from wheat flour, water, and yeast —and— which has been reaffirmed numerous times, and most recently was reaffirmed by French law again in the French Bread Law 1993 (French = Le Décret Pain (1993)) and stated in part, that:
The baguette is “the most popular kind of bread enjoyed and consumed in France throughout the year.”
“Baguettes require specific knowledge and techniques: they are baked throughout the day in small batches and the outcomes vary according to the temperature and humidity. They also generate modes of consumption and social practices that differentiate them from other types of bread, such as daily visits to bakeries to purchase the loaves and specific display racks to match their long shape.”
In fact, the French themselves have jealously guarded and taken immense national pride in their bread, and have demonstrated as much since October 1798.
"Considering the decree n° 84-1147 of 7 December 1984 further modified application of the law of 1 August 1905 on the frauds and falsifications as regards products or services with regard to the labelling and the presentation of the foodstuffs;
"Considering the decree n° 89-674 of 18 September 1989 relating to the additives which can be employed in the food products intended for human consumption;
"Article 1 — Bread called “pain maison” or an equivalent name can only be sold under those names if the bread has been entirely kneaded, worked and cooked on their place of sale to the ultimate consumer. However, this denomination can also be used when the bread is sold away from the premises to the ultimate consumer by the professional who ensured that the operations of kneading, shaping and cooking occurred at the same place.
"Article 2 — Bread called “pain de tradition française”, “pain traditionnel français”, “pain traditionnel de France” or some name combining these terms can only be sold if they have not been frozen at any point during their making, do not contain any additives, and are produced from a dough which has the following characteristics:
1. Made only from a mix of wheat flours suitable for making bread, safe water and cooking salt;
2. Fermented with yeast suitable for breads (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and a starter, in the sense of article 4 of this Decree, or either yeast or a starter;
3. Relative to the weight of the (wheat) flour used will contain no more than
a) 2 percent broad bean flour;
b) .5 percent soya flour
c) .3 percent malted wheat flour
Article 3 — Breads sold under the category of “pain au levain” must be made from a starter as defined by Article 4, just have a potential maximum pH of 4.3 and an acidity of at least 900 parts per million
Article 4 — Starter is a paste made from wheat or rye, or just one of these, with safe water added and salt (optional), and which undergoes a naturally acidifying fermentation, whose purpose is to ensure that the dough will rise. The starter contains acidifying microphone-flora made up primarily of lactic bacteria and yeasts. Adding bread yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is allowed when the dough reaches its last phase of kneading, to a maximum amount of .2 percent relative to the weight of flour used up to this point.
The starter can be dehydrated provided that the dehydrated starter contains one billion live bacteria and one to 10 million yeasts per gram. After rehydration and possibly, addition of bread yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) under the conditions envisaged with the preceding subparagraph, it must be able to ensure a correct lifting of the dough.
The starter can have micro-organisms added to it, authorized by decree of the Minister for Agriculture and the Minister in charge of Consumers, made upon advice of the commission of food technology created by the decree n° 89-530 of 28 July 1989.
Article 5 — Article 2 of the decree No. 63-720 of 13 July 1963 relating to the composition of the flours of wheat, rye and méteil (a mix of wheat and rye) and the decree No. 67-584 of 18 July 1967 fixing the definition of the bread of current consumption taken pursuant to article 13 C of the law No. 66-10 of 6 January 1966 bringing reforms and various provisions of a financial nature are repealed.
Article 6 — The Minister of State, Guard of the Seals and Minister of Justice, the Minister for the Economy and the Minister for Agriculture and Fishing are entrusted with the execution of this Decree, which will be published in the Official Journal of the French Republic.

THIS! IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ONE TAKES PRIDE IN WHAT THEY PRODUCE!
That does NOT happen in the United States.
Food is viewed as a Wall$treet overlord-ruled, corporate profit-making venture to be manipulated for the maximization of shareholder profit.
In fact... THIS IS NOT A JOKE — take a glance at the ingredients label of your favorite (so-called) Parmesan-cheese-in-a-plastic-bottle. There, you'll see an ingredient called "cellulose," which is ostensibly added as an "anti-caking agent," or some such tommyrot.
Let's be EXPLICITLY CLEAR about what CELLUOSE is.
Cellulose is sawdust.
It's the absorbent stuff in disposable baby diapers.
Now, do you REALLY wanna' eat baby diapers, or sawdust?
I doubt it.
And NO ONE can say that the contamination, adulteration, and profane debasing of GENUINE Parmigiano Reggiano with sawdust does not affect taste.... because IT DOES.
How desecrated and defiled is THAT?!?
Eh?
It's like so-called "turkey bacon" which is not bacon, and rather, is highly-processed, adulterated turkey meat posited as "bacon."
IT IS NOT.
Same principle with so-called almond "milk" and other fraudulently labeled, highly-processed chemically-adulterated gobbledygook presented as "milk."
IT IS NOT.
That American food manufacturers have so LITTLE regard for — and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has so LITTLE REGARD for We The People, that they KNOWINGLY ALLOW such befouling of food.
But then again, the FDA is a captured and corrupted agency — "captured" meaning that the proverbial fox is watching the henhouse, which refers to the businesses and industries which the agency is supposed to be watching, have been infiltrated and taken over by them.
A lost relative, only my dad and his sister remain with a memory of her name and existence.

Proud moment...not to be credited to me for what these small folks are doing but to be a witness to who they are. Thing One took piano for five years and we had several battles for him to do his daily practice in those early years. Princess Fierce gleefully practices every day and was doing her own practices every day for a year before she even began formal lessons. Thing Two rarely fights the daily task. I think Thing One just was not excited about piano. However, the guitar he cannot put down. I was in the other room when I heard strumming accompanying Princess Fierce during her morning practice...I stood silently in the doorway to this scene. Thing One came in and with her permission played the same notes she was learning on the piano with his guitar. She loved this. And he loved it too. My heart just grew three sizes when Thing One noticed me and just smiled at my presence. This moment of sibling love, cooperation and respect makes all those silly fights over practicing piano worth it. And yes, I do see a thin string connecting it all in my mind.

An often seasonal treat, prime rib is quite easy to cook. In fact, while I have investigated numerous other methods, I rely exclusively upon the “closed door” method, which goes like this (you’ll NEVER FORGET THIS!):
1.) Actively cook the cut in a 500°F oven 5 minutes for every pound.
2.) Then, turn off the oven, and LEAVE THE DOOR SHUT FOR TWO HOURS.
3.) Then, it’ll be ready.
How EASY is THAT, eh?
Picking up our traditional birthday balloon bouquet for Princess Fierce's Monster High birthday tomorrow. The Human Torch photobombed my pic.

Today, March 14, 2015 - is International #Pi Day - 3/14/15 9:26:53
More specifically, it will be "more fully" Pi Day at 09:26:53.
So, in recognition of that "nerdy" fact, I'm wearing this fragrance today - Pi, by Givenchy. It's long been one of my favorites. Seriously!
Here's a bit about the fragrance... and then, we'll move on to the math.
"Oriental woody perfume Pi by the House of Givenchy is excellent for eternal explorers and fans of sensual experiments. Its geometric bottle with perfectly clear lines contains a woody, sensual scent. Basil, rosemary, tarragon and neroli introduce freshness into this generally warm, oriental composition with an accentuated strong note of Guaiac wood standing in union with balmy notes of vanilla, tonka and benzoin resin. The perfume was created by Alberto Morillas in1998.
"There are several successors of this edition. Their bottles were designed similarly, with an exception of modern and futuristic Pi Neo perfume from 2008. The bottle for Pi was created by Serge Mansau.
"The successors of perfume Pi from 1998 are the following: Pi Fraiche 2001, Pi Metallic Collector 2004, Pi Original Code 2006, Pi Leather Jacket 2006 and Pi Neo from 2008.
"Their composition opens with aromas of basil, rosemary, tarragon and mandarin. A heart encompasses neroli, geranium, lily of the valley and anise, while base notes include: vanilla, tonka, cedar, benzoin, almond and yellow sugar."
Fragrance Notes:
Top Notes
Mandarin, Rosemary, Galbanum, Pine
Middle Notes
Orange blossom, Basil, Tarragon, Capucine, Guaiacwood, Iron wood
Base Notes
Benzoin, vanilla
Pi is a mathematical constant which is: 3.141592653... etc.
To analogize, or more adequately express the idea, consider a wheel as it rolls.
The "zero," or beginning point, is the point at which the wheel touches the ground.
The distance between any two numbers is the same.
And the wheel is of sufficient size to "touch" the next number adjacent number.
If we started to roll the wheel over/through the numbers, it would go to 3.141592653 before it returned to the "zero point."

A hardy, wild grape with a somewhat thick skin, often found in the Southern United States, which is used to make jellies, jams, juices, and less often, wine.
Took the boys to see Avengers for breakfast this morning. 11yo Thing One and I sported Iron Man and Captain America tees. But Thing Two chose to wear his full Captain America costume. He was so happy you could practically feel it. He received lots of compliments from theater staff and patrons further boosting his joy. Here he is watching the end battle...he never took the mask off for a second. Love it!
Turned Princess Fierce's arm cast into a funky lamp. She's super happy to still have it. I'm super happy to not have it just lying around.
It's been a while since I've enjoyed a cigar.
Hopefully, you'll enjoy this photo just as much as I did the cigar!
Thing One was struck with inspiration last night and created this Lego arm. It's articulated to move at the elbow just as he moves.
Sausage + Breakfast = Sausage Fest
Yeah... I know.
But hey! It's becoming Thanksgivukkah and we're gonna' be so deluged with food pics, so I thought I'd get mine in early. ;-)
Hah! Get mine in early... sausagefest... Hahah!
This is Conecuh brand smoked sausage, since 1947, made in Evergreen, Alabama.
I boiled it up, and then added Jasmine rice to it.
Then, I threw some of it in a skillet, and added scrambled eggs.
High protein breakfast in a jiffy!
Talk about "stick to your ribs" breakfast?
This is it!
I wasn't hungry all day!
And... I didn't eat all of what is seen here, either! ;-)
All seriousness aside...
Folks, this is some GOOD STUFF!
Give 'em a call!
They'll ship via UPS M, T & W if orders are placed by noon.

This may be the best two dollars I've spent in a very long time. First you need to know my man is impossibly hard to scare. He's damn near unflappable. But this, this gets him! It's a light activated screamer. It's awesome! Every time he turns on the light in the main floor bathroom it screams a blood curdling scream. And after two full days of my man working at home, he still screams or curses every time. And the man takes a lot of pee breaks. <3 It's so super fun I went out and bought a second screamer, this time a pumpkin, and put it in his medicine cabinet. Got him again! Then he put it in the fridge to get me. Then I put it in the freezer and got him. Then he took the pumpkin out and just sat it on the counter. Fool. He noticed at dinner it wasn't on the counter but I wouldn't tell him where the pumpkin screamer is now. *evil laugh* I king cuss love Halloween!
Seen here: Purple corn tortilla chips, tostadas, and plantain chips.
Man... those things're GREAT!
And importantly, when it comes to dips – though salsa verde is comparatively thin – the plantain chips STAND UP!
Salsa verde is similarly easy to make.
Tomatillos, cumin, onion, garlic, jalapeños, cilantro, S&P... run 'em through the food processor, or blender until smooth.
I adore how my little loves to give me custom tattoos with markers. This design she created is a momma turtle, my favorite creature, with three baby turtles. <3
Finally found a much talked about local house with over 150 inflatables. However, it was raining and they were all down. Looked like a nylon massacre.
