Did you know that today is National Maple Syrup Day? Yeah, I know Maple Syrup can be used for a whole lot more than pancakes, waffles and French toast. Yet that’s typically what comes to my mind, with just a hint of sadness at times.

In case you haven’t noticed, I love food. So glad we have a National I Love Food Day to celebrate all the goodness of food. While we do need to eat in order to fuel the body, eating is meant to be more – it’s meant to bring joy. Why else would God have given us taste buds?

Today is National Grand Marnier Day. I was all in favor of whipping up my favorite dessert – a Grand Marnier Soufflé served with a Crème Anglaise or Vanilla Custard Sauce. Yeah, that’s my favorite. It’s not Hubby’s favorite when it comes to Soufflés. He prefers a Chocolate Soufflé with a light Dove Chocolate Sauce.

I know what you are thinking – big deal, so you made some French Toast. Yeah, but this ain’t no ordinary, run-of-the-mill French Toast. The zest and juice of an orange seems to wake up the taste buds. Yum! And while the recipe says to finish with Maple Syrup, if you can find a Bourbon Maple, that’s even better!

Welcome to Cyber Monday. This is one of those shopping traditions I could do without. Too impersonal. I am not with the crazies on Black Friday, nor do I have any interest in shopping on line today. I say whatever rings your bell, that’s fine.

Do people actually drink Grand Marnier? I ask because I’ve never poured it into a glass to drink. To me, Grand Marnier is that ingredient used to elevate the ordinary into something extraordinary.

Wow – we’ve reached the middle of September already. Hard to believe. Of all the seasons, I really think I love fall the best. The days are still warm, but the nights are cool. There is a hint of smoke in the air from nearby fireplaces. And a crispness that no other season can impart.
