Need a use for extra eggs? Got to pick up some cocoa and try this -

Microwave Chocolate Cake

chocolate cake at any time of the day or night

Ingredients:

4 tbsp. flour
4 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. cocoa
1 egg
3 tbsp. milk
3 tbsp. oil
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)

Method: Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

70th Anniversary Party is over. It was a huge success. I am so exhausted I am resting all day today, hopefully.

Mary, do you have their wedding picture? Our local paper always prints both together and I love to compare them.

They were married in the preacher's car at midnight. Just the two of them and the preacher and his wife. This was the next day.

I love it!

When I was a kid, headscarves were real big for women and my sister and I wore them often too. I love the white ankle socks with the loafers and my Papa (grandfather) wore a hat just like that. He looks like a happy man and she a demure bride.

Thanks for sharing!

Do you think I might have waited a little longer than I should to lockdown the call duck eggs? Now I have to wipe out the dang cabinet!

When the calendar says "lockdown bottom shelf" on Friday, it dang well means it! At least they didn't have to fall through all three shelves to hit bottom. But Happy Mother's Day to me! There's a third one zipping, a few more call eggs and a few chicken eggs waiting to join them.

I managed to catch Mama and Daddy Duck overseeing the ducklings' swim in the pond yesterday.

(I've been leaving the kiddie pools dry because there used to be five ducklings, but one got into the "turtle" pool and couldn't get out.... when I was not around to rescue it. No steps out for the babies..... but the new pond has an excellent ramp.)

I WANT your duck pond!

Linda, your pond looks great

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers!

I'm glad the anniversary party went well, Mary. Nice photos.
