I'm a MAC, He's a PC

The moment has arrived! Tom got a new computer! He had his old one since the early 2000's and waited for Windows 7 to be available before purchasing a new one. It's big news for him because he will no longer have to wait 30 minutes for his computer to load and it will actually be able to handle more than one application at a time. All I've heard for the last year was Tom letting out frustrated grunts and his fists pounding the desk whenever he used his old computer.

Fondue for Two

We celebrated Tom's birthday yesterday evening by enjoying some fondue, cold beers, and homemade dark chocolate cake. Since cooking doesn't come easily to me and I had been fretting over what to make for Tom's bday dinner, I was extremely relieved to have a simple meal. Tom whipped up four sauces for dipping: horseradish, tomato with a hint of tabasco (surprisingly delicious), egg, and garlic. ALL very good. I did, however, make him an AWESOME dark chocolate cake with butter creme icing. Baking, on the other hand, comes every easily to me.

I highly recommend this recipe for dark chocolate cake - not very sweet and extremely moist. I'll be making it again and again and again.
