This treat comes compliments of MY FOOD AND FAMILY. Click on over for the nutritional details. I happen to be a big fan of both cinnamon and chocolate, and anything I can whip together in five minutes to curb that craving? Oh, heck yeah! I’m totally on board. And I’m not the only one. Mariska needed soft food after a chemo treatment and was craving something sweet. Cory whipped this up because it’s quick and yummy. Turns out All the kids–including Maxim–think this is an awesome snack, and/or dessert. Cory shared the recipe with Meg and the two of them have been known to whip up their own servings when there’s no one else around. You can find out more about the kids and how Meg came to Key West with Kin in CROSSFIRE. The book is now available wide in most major on-line booksellers. Grab it while its “hot off the presses,” mix up some cinnamon chocolate pudding and enjoy! Simply click on the pic up top or the title to head to Books2Read to get the link to your favorite store. What about y’all? Cool flavors during hot temps: yay or nay?
**There is no individual cover pic like I normally post for TTT because weirdness is still happening–the pics are fine here on the blog and in my RSS reader feed but on Facebook? It gets weird! Let’s see what happens. 🙄

So your saying your FB feed is haunted?
The Spawn is complaining about having the windows open as it’s getting much cooler, esp at night and in the early morning.
I laugh.
Still no sink.
Can’t mow because it rained for 2 days so it will be a couple more before I can.
Bought fall stuff at Big Lots yesterday. YAY Fall!
Laughed at the segment on the Today Show about Stratton VT blocking off the road so people can’t leaf peep. Makes me happy esp since so many of them come through here on the way to VT and Rt7 is packed all weekend. Can’t go shopping and have to head to the next town over across the Hudson. Pain in our butts!
Tourists are so rude–unless the local economy depends on them. LOL We have friends that live in a resort lake community–and their family was there BEFORE the lake was even built. They constantly complained about the “lake people” but also appreciated the new restaurants, shops, and big box stores that came to town to accomodate them. Me? I just hate people and try to avoid them at all costs. And yes, there appears to be a glitch in the matrix on my FB author page. 🤷🏼♀️ I’m all out of clues.
The spot they are talking about is the most photographed place in VT. It wouldn’t be so bad but people trample all over private property to get their selfies, bring changing rooms with them so they can change outfits and block traffic. Last year they tried making it one way so residents could get in and out but emergency vehicles still had problems so this year they petitioned to close the road, complete with a locking gate and cameras, that they paid for themselves. I don’t blame them. People have no respect at all.
Wow! I bet’cha someone comes, leaves, and comes back with a chain cutter! And yeah, those kind of people are beyond rude. There’s not many things worse than a bunch of entitled people. Good luck to the residents and I hope y’alls road sees less traffic due to their efforst!
Yum
If you like chocolate and cinnamon, it really is tasty! And almost instant gratification. 😉
