For the perusal of those that have refined tastes are some fine prosciutto and gruyere croissants, white chocolate and cherry scones, and pumpkin cranberry muffins. Also, succulent dried apricots dipped in 70% dark chocolate, plus blueberry granola filled with the natural goodness of homemade granola and dried organic blueberries ~ added to the granola is wheat bran, walnut halves, sunflower seeds, grape molasses and coconut flakes.

Other selections I'll be preparing are;

Assorted Miniature Quiche, and a delectable Smoked salmon pate' with bagels & whipped cream cheese.

Fancy Scrambled Eggs with fresh asparagus, herbs & swiss cheese.

Creole Grillades of Seared Beef Tenderloin.

Brioche French Toast with maple syrup, Sweet Potato Biscuits and pepper jelly.

For those of you with a more traditional sweet tooth; Sassy Strawberry Cupcakes - Pure strawberry cake filled with fresh strawberries and topped with decadent cream cheese icing.

Chocolate Mousse Tarts - Tart shells half-dipped in dark chocolate ganache and filled with chocolate mousse, topped with a sprinkling of cocoa powder.

And for the elders amongst us, Granola cereal with low fat yogurt, Low fat cottage cheese with fresh fruit coulis and low-fat fruit yogurt.

Bran flakes and low-fat milk with prune juice for those who need to 'go'.

The espresso that I am serving today is Espresso Bella Vita Blackberry Mint.

Some of the coffee selections available today are;

Rainforest Organic. This selection has a smooth taste, floral undertones and aromatic character.

Peruvian Organic. Rich volcanic soil, watered by melting snows and abundant tropical rains, creates the ideal conditions for a uniquely superb coffee. Peruvian Organic is mountain-harvested using pure, simple techniques that produce beans of exceptional quality. Light and smooth, with a medium body and pleasing, slightly floral acidity and subtle earthiness, this is a Certified Organic coffee that I'm sure you will love!

For those of you that prefer the flavored ph00, may I recommend;

Irish Crème. Experience the delectable taste of Irish crème in this buttery coffee. Irish Crème is a sweet coffee blended from mountain-grown Arabica beans grown in South America. This buttery, non-alcoholic blend is lively and full of fun - making for a delectable treat with every sip.

Chocolate Raspberre'. Just a touch of rich chocolate flavor combined with the essence of tangy raspberries is all it takes to unleash a unique coffee experience. Made from carefully selected, mountain-grown Arabica beans from South America, this delicious blend is a perfectly balanced, aromatic coffee experience that can make any occasion special.

And of course the menu wouldn't be complete without the traditional DTR Janitors Blend Crème Brulee Deluxe! Tobacco, caramel and cream flavor add just the right amount of sweetness and tartness to this extremely heavy-bodied blend. Crème Brulee coffee is an enticing full-flavored blend that combines premium Arabica beans from East Africa and Central and South America, and the floor sweepings, moppings and urinal remnants from the DTR restrooms. Pour a cup and sip the day's troubles away with DTR Janitors Blend Crème Brulee Deluxes' superbly balanced and velvety smooth flavor.

Hope you enjoy!

That’s another problem with being gone for a couple months. Have to give them a bath and put new ribbons in their hair.

Thanks, I really missed the insanity around here. Very good thinking on the camera thing. Sounds like they work a lot better than the last time (9 yrs ago through X-10) that we tried it.

Dang it, I must be getting old. I actually had to look up epok. First definition that came up was kissing a girl you like than throwing up. Not sure I want any epoks either.

Evening DTR. Went over to the FILs today. Him and the BIL need to move some furniture from one side of town to the other. So I drove my truck, they did the loading since I can't do a whole lot because of my back. Better than him having to rent a uhaul truck.

Watched the Green Bay/Dallas game this afternoon. That was on of the most boring games until the 4th quarter. Happy Green Bay won! The BIL wasn't happy... he's a dallas fan.

Relaxing now and enjoying a cold beer.

Hey Grace!

Seen you fly, and land twice in the 20 minutes leading up to the program. That sure looks like it hurt your pride. (remembering we're G rated) Whoops you're on!!!!

Hey Raymond, welcome to breakroom. I wouldn't look to hard for the dragon, you might find him.

Hey Heidi, for someone who didn't want to be on TV.........you sure gave a long interview. I also noticed they referred to you as 'jockey' Heidi instead of ..... Heidi. Do you want me to call and get that straightened out? Be happy to help.
