Oh gawwwwwwwwwwwds, I just hocked up a wad of thick, bloody mucus the size of my thumb. (And writing that, I’ll probably never have anyone read my blog again but I had to share. heh) Either my sinuses were bleeding yesterday while I was sick or my throat was. Either one would explain my headache, sore throat, and stomach ache. Why? Well, yeah see boys and ghouls, blood’s an emetic and irritant. In other words, swallow enough and you’ll throw up.
I feel 100% better though, thanks for asking. Ugh, I hate being sick. It’s such a waste of time. Plus, the Nyquil makes me sleep so heavily I don’t have any dreams. On the other hand, I feel more rested than I have in months.
In other news, I promised to make Leprecaun Fudge for work tomorrow and now I can’t find my recipe! Wah
They may have to settle for carrot cake. Least that way I can have some too. (I’m allergic to chocolate as I think I have stated before.)

I’m glad you’re feeling better. I hate being sick, too. Good thing I’m sick so rarely, or I’d just hate myself.
Carrot cake. Mmmmmm. I love carrot cake. I’d rather have that than chocolate, myself. I’m just weird that way. In fact, carrot cake is really the only cake I like.
Leprechaun Fudge
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup vanilla chips
1 TBS. peppermint extract
Green food coloring (optional)
Melt chocolate chips with 1 cup condensed milk in a heavy saucepan. Stir in
vanilla. Pour half of the mixture into waxed paper lined 8×8 inch pan. Chill
for 10-15 minutes. Keep remaining chocolate mixture at room temperature. Melt
vanilla chips and the rest of the condensed milk in a saucepan. Stir in
peppermint extract and food coloring. Spread over chilled chocolate layer.
Spread reserved chocolate mixture over the peppermint layer. Chill for 2 hours
longer. Invert into cutting board, remove waxed paper. Cut into 1″ squares.
Harmony, Sorry you have not been feeling great! I know this recipe is late in coming, however, maybe for next year. Happy YULE my friend.
P.S. Got wonderful fantastic gifts you sent THANKS
