Quick, somebody call me a whaaambulance

The Lakers just won the western conference. Buggerall. Now I have to root for the eastern team in finals.

 

In commiseration, GM suggested we have some of the canneles we got from Trader Joe’s for dessert. Not to be deterred in my whining, I protested they aren’t very good, and needed chocolate sauce, and we don’t have any chocolate sauce. AhHA! Says GM, we have my mother’s chocolate sauce recipe! (GM’s dear mama gave me some of her mother’s recipe books while we were visiting last weekend, and in amongst all the booty was a photocopy of her chocolate sauce recipe.) So we put all these things in a pot and boiled for four minutes: 1 cup sugar, 1 Tbl flour, 4 Tbl cocoa powder, 1 Tbl butter, ½ cup whole milk, 1 tesp vanilla and a dash of salt. Mmmmm. I had thought GM was merely being sentimental, but it’s really good. We ate some, and saved a jarful for later.
