Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Itty
Bitty Nutella Cakes
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
I figured out that there are
689 calories per serving, if you eat ¼ of the family size pound cake. (Please note that the calorie
counts vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to
use.)
You can half the calories by
just cutting the fourth section in half and then the calories are
manageable. I had to do this even
though I wanted the whole darn thing.

This is one of the
quickest desserts I have ever made. I created it in about five minutes. I
really love Nutella and Cool Whip so what more is there to say? I also sprinkled some walnuts on top,
the second time I ate it, and that was even better. Kids would love this one!
Trivial Triffles
I
have spent a lot of time on the road this summer and had time to notice and
really pay attention to construction work and speed
limits. I watched what I would call a lot of close calls. They were really just
speeders and bad drivers too close to the workers. I totally respect the
reduced speed limits and feel for the families who lost a member due to
impatient and thoughtless motorists. Are we really so important that we must
risk someone’s life because we are late? The next time you near a construction
site – slow down.
Memory Musings
Bikes
were not the only thing we rode in good ole’ Rainbow Hilles. Brian Stopka had a
homemade go-cart. Now this was nothing like the ones that you see today.
Brian’s go-cart was loud, but it ran great and looked like so much fun. Brian’s
older brother, Tom, also loved loud vehicles. Tom had a very loud Camero that
we could hear driving down Rt. 64 from our homes. I thought it was fabulous, as
would any kid at that time. I guess you could say that the Stopka boys loved
their vehicles loud and fast.
