Surgery and Syrup...

First of all... a little update on the MOLE story... Trent had a surgery on one of the BAD moles on Friday... This one went better than the first one I think. He definitely didn't have as much pain and the scar will be smaller. So YAY for that! Thanks to everyone's thoughts and prayers!

WARNING!!! Graphic picture of scar and bandage and Trent's back!

You can see the BIG scar on his shoulder from the first surgery, a litle scar,  and the bandage from yesterday. Mike and I watched the procedure while the surgeon told us stories about Dante, purgatory and the hot fiery place (but he used the real word) and about how we should NOT visit Naples Italy! Very interesting... we just smiled and nodded and then just busted out laughing when we got in the car! Very nice surgeon... crazy conversation!

NEXT... here is my new breakfast discovery!... It pays to watch the food channel sometimes. We watched Throw Down with Bobby Flay and he was at a restaurant that made blueberry pancakes and MAPLE BUTTER SYRUP!!!! That syrup looked SOOOOOOOO good ... even better than the pancakes... that I had to look it up on the internet. It's SOOOO easy and SOOOOOOO yummy! WANT the recipe?!?!?! Do ya?!?!? Here it is:

1 cup maple syrup (I just used what I had on hand, not any fancy kind, just Aunt Jemimah)
4 Tablespoons REAL butter ... it has to be REAL butter!

Heat together in a pan and stir or whisk til it's thick and gooey. That's it... very easy...Pour on your pancakes while it's warm! I tell ya it's SO good I could drink it!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
