| Chocolate Liqueur Truffles |
I saw the new George Clooney movie 'The Descendants' on the weekend and enjoyed it. This well-acted drama is set in Hawaii and the scenery is just beautiful. I think I have to put Hawaii on my bucket list!
And here's an interesting fact for you that I received in an email:
REMEMBER THIS AT CHRISTMAS TIME According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December.
Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.
