Sweet Thursday & baby bunny

Sorry this is so late but better late than never! >>>>>>First let me tell you about baby bunny. Again, I had to go into work early this morning and open, so I was running to get out the door and I hear my dogs barking incessantly at something outside. I go out to see what all the commotion is about and they just about have a hole dug under the fence to get at this tiny bunny in the grass. He is terrified lieing there and shaking, so I pick him up put him in a box and rush to work. I wasn't even sure what it was. He is so young he still hasn't opened his eyes. I tried a few times through the day to get some water into his mouth to at least keep him hydrated and later this afternoon I was able to get some kitty formula with a small bottle and tiny nipple. I have tried feeding him but he doesn't want to open his mouth. I am terribly afraid he is not going to make it through the night. Mother nature can be so cruel sometimes.....


Well, onto sweeter thoughts.....CHOCOLATE! This recipe is for my son's absolute favorite cake. I call it "Death by Chocolate" but it is Oh So Good!!

*and following last weeks theme, a little raspberry topping probably wouldn't hurt.....what'd ya think? ;)

Well, it's already late. I was going to try and get to bed early (by 11p.m.) but as usual it didn't happen. 5 hours a night is just not hacking it! Spent much of the afternoon playing with my new cell phone. Old one finally died on me. Thank goodness I had a $150 credit to use towards a new one and on top of that I got a reburbished one (still new just returned) for 1/2 cost so I got a sweet deal on a sweet phone....2 more sweets!.....it really is a 'sweet' Thursday.
