Epic Lake Time


2 gentlemen, 2 ladies, 1 beast; running off into the sunset, the water shimmering all around, the wind whistling across my beard hairs, the majestic stride of the great beast, releasing his mighty battle cry to the wing-ed foes lurking at the water's edge. The beast's roar shook them to the core, and they took flight, scattering to the winds, peppering the blue swirls of the sky. The beast returned, covered in the blood-red mud from his conquest, yet satisfied.



Under the blue sky swirled with white chocolate clouds, we glided across the black expanse. The wind rushed past, biting and screaming a chilly protest. The rhythmic back and forth motion of the concrete surfboard lulled me into a trance of nostalgia and excitement.


 
Yeah. We Longboard.

White Chocolate Mousse

This is my own personal recipe for white chocolate mousse. Enjoy.



  •  8 oz White Chocolate chips (1 bag)
  •  4 tbsp Sugar
  •  1 Egg yolk
  •  3 Egg whites
  •  2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla 

1. Heat White chocolate chips, 1/2 cup cream, and 1 egg yolk in saucepan on medium heat until JUST melted, do NOT overheat, as you can easily burn the white chocolate. Set aside to let cool.

2. In a separate bowl, beat 3 egg whites until they form stiff peaks- add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar as you mix.

3. In another separate bowl whip the heavy cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 2 tbsp sugar until soft peaks form.
with a spatula, fold the egg whites into the chocolate in 3 additions, then fold in whipped creme in 3 additions.

4. Chill for at least 3-4 hours for best results. Serve in wine glasses with blueberries (or any fresh fruit) and some chocolate shavings for a fancy dessert that everyone will love!

The Beginning

Thus begins a blog of epic proportions, randomness to the max, and a few misadventures. We will laugh, we will cry, we will try not to get arrested, but lets keep it a clean and fair fight, gentlemen.


Everything is better with a mustache.


We don't discriminate.
