This is a funny conversation that we had today. At least, it made me laugh and guffaw!! I was looking at recipes on the Internet because Gnome said that the chances of finding a chocolate eclair in Belize was very, very slim (almost impossible). I have cravings for chocolate eclairs and they consume my thoughts entirely sometimes!!
Anyway, that part wasn’t really the point of the story. I decided to look at recipes for choux pastry (I made it before a long time ago when I was a medical student…I went through a crazy phase of making profiteroles). I think that if I really want to satisfy my need for a chocolate eclair (and stop the day dreaming) then I have to make choux pastry and stuff them with cream and then put on the top chocolatey layer (mmmm….yum…yum!!).
That part still isn’t the point of the story!! To get the point, I found a very nice choux pastry recipe (it was explained very well with the scientific principles behind the reasons for the ingredients and manipulation of ingredients). When I scrolled down and read the profile of the writer, it was really cool…the description included working in organic farms around Italy ,etc, etc and the finally he mentioned that he once herded 200 sheep on a mountain top (for how long, I don’t know…but it sounded too cool, right!!). So, I got all sucked in about cool blog profiles so I told Gnome about it and mentioned:
‘Can you think of something cool to say about us?”
Gnome’s response:
‘We herd geese!!’
Yes Indeed!! Picture Munchkin and Gnome herding geese around our farm in Belize!! So Cool…Ha-Ha!! Now, we have a blog profile to brag about!! 😉
