Chocolate Cream Pie

"You know what I love about cooking? 
I love that after a day when nothing is sure, 
and when I say "nothing" I mean nothing, 
you can come home and absolutely know that if you add 
egg yolks to chocolate and sugar and milk, 
it will get thick. It's such a comfort."

Made some Whipped Cream for the top.  It didn't thicken like it should have, but it was still yummy!!

Tonight for dinner, I was going to make Chicken Enchiladas.  But we were out of Green Chillies and that is a very key ingredient in the recipe.  I had already cut up the Chicken, found some Apricot Preserves in our pantry, and searched the web, and found a recipe for Apricot Chicken.
It was really tasty.  Would like to make it again and add some veggies to it.

"For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations."
-Psalm 100:5
