    Testing a New Treat Recipe

    Stay @ home order day 13.

    Gorgeous day here in Colorado Springs.

    We were really tempted to go to one of the nearby parks for a hike. But we had multiple deliveries coming ... with no scheduled time frame. So, we stayed home and made the most of the sunny, blue-sky day — with temps reaching up into 72F — on our own deck. Mui even set up an umbrella to give us a bit of relief from the sun.

    Mui was in and out of the house, working on a recipe he recently found for chocolate dipped orange peel strips. Yummy!!! One of my favorite treats. The result ... delicious ... although we didn’t have enough chocolate in the house this time to entirely coat each orange peel strip. You can bet that will change when he makes the recipe again.

    (His recipe is in Turkish, but you can Google chocolate dipped orange peel and come up with quite a number of recipes online should you suddenly have a yen to make your own treats.)    Read more
