We went to Serendipity for lunch. It’s located at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. This place is famous for it’s Frozen Hot Chocolate. Susan ordered one and I tried it. Good stuff! This is actually the main reason we came here – she’s been wanting one of these for a long time. Serendipity is also ... Read More about Serendipity

A Real Egg
Since my breakfast was a fail yesterday I decided to try eggs today. I have a bunch of generic egg beater cartons, but was craving a “real egg”. So, I made an over-easy egg with toast.
