not really a dessert guy BUT....

You will be surprised:  with all the pie in this house (pumpkin and chocolate!) we made the very famous triple chocolate cookies Friday....to impress guests on Saturday, you see?  That is a lot of sweet stuff around the house...and as I say, I am not a dessert guy BUT the wife is....and I like pie for breakfast....I don't know if I had ever eaten chocolate and pumpkin pie for breakfast before....
in other news, we went to what is a city park in Ithaca, but in actuality a zillion acres of forest and gorge called the Mulholland Wildflower preserve or Second Dam on Six Mile Creek...it is hard to believe this enchanted forest and glen is right by our house (many enchanted forests are near our house) but it is dangerous in the summer when teens drink beer and jump to swim...and each year somebody gets hurt or dies...look below and the video shows why....anyway, have an awesome Saturday!

    We were jumping off the bridge into the local pond until we discovered some damned fool had thrown a broken, rusty swing set in there. It took close to a dozen of us more than an hour to get it out of the water.

    I love the wildflower preserve. It's one of minchy's and my favorite places for adventures. And lovely for taking a quick dip to cool off. Although, yes, those kids are idiots for jumping off that cliff.
