er, or something near that.

so let us see. now outside of city. renting part of large-ish professor on sabbatical house. lovely yard. greenery everywhere. walk to work. life could be worse.

but what is there really to write about?

made a chocolate pudding over the weekend:

3cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/4 tea salt
1 capfull vanilla
2 tab butter
1/2 bag chocolate chips, melted


whisk sugar, cornstarch and salt in pan. add milk and whisk. keep on medium heat, stirring occasionally with increasing vigil as liquid thickens. melt chocolate in separate pan, put aside to cool slightly. when milk mixture has thickened remove from fire and add vanilla, butter. stir until butter is melted. stir in chocolate. continue with an occasional stir until pudding is cool, refrigerate.

to have vanilla pudding omit chocolate. almond extract can also be used in place of vanilla or really any extract.

depending upon the quality of your ingredients this can taste like box mix or something extraordinary.
