I read the most awesome book recently called, The Noticer. Author Andy Andrews says that, "The Noticer is rooted in the belief that our time on earth is a gift to be used wisely and one of the best ways to use that gift is by noticing those who have made an impact in our lives". That's what I hope to do this year. I want to notice EVERYTHING for 365 days - All of the God moments in my life - All of the friends and family that surround me - and as always, every bit of the funny that goes on in this world. Hope you enjoy and YOU become a noticer too.

Bread Pudding...



Day #188:



I had absolutely no intentions of working 12 hours when I went to work this morning; however, of all the long shifts I've worked, this was one of the better ones. The Sweet Taste of the Shoals was held at the Regency Square Mall tonight benefitting Big Brothers Big Sisters. We do it every year - dish up some delightful treats to area Shaolians who are getting fatter and fatter. This year, it was Bread Pudding with Whiskey Caramel Sauce. Best part about it? We didn't have to take anybody else (actually we couldn't recruit anybody else). IT was just me and Chef. He dished up the bread pudding, I topped it off with caramel sauce. In the meantime, we laughed hysterically at everybody there. They kept coming by and saying it looks delicious. No it doesn't. Bread pudding never looks delicious. In fact, Chef said it looked like somebody threw-up in the cup. Sure made me want to try some. We had a great debate about how to pronounce caramel (car-mul, care-a-mell, care-mel). Finally we agreed to just start saying it in Icelandic. It was a fun night. :0)

  1. Bread pudding is just one of the few sweet things I've just never been able to really get excited about. Caramel sauce sounds yummy, though!
