Howdy, friends!
I hope y'all had a lovely Fourth of July extended weekend!
We did - mostly. Mannie, my three-legged Border Collie, is still very much scared of the fireworks and some idiots down the street had illegal fireworks that they were letting off at 10pm on the 3rd. To say I was livid was an understatement - I could practically feel my blood at boiling temps as I

No Bake Copycat Cosmic Brownies
So Sacramento has been having some wacky weather.
Good wacky, like when you see an elderly woman with lavender hair. Not bad wacky, like your uncle who may or may not be on some kind of stimulant.
