Super Moon in Clouds 2012 - Newfoundland, Canada

The Soul Calendar: 51 Spectacular New 2012 Super Moon Photos: From Denny: Forget what the main stream media put up for Supermoon photos. I found some superior ones over at flickr from both amateur and professional photographers. They also tell you how they constructed these photos or video from a series of photos. In this post are 49 photos and two videos.

And, yeah, I like to promote photographers so any info they provided with their awesome photos is posted here too so you can purchase prints or visit their websites. Most of these photos are All Rights Reserved, some are Creative Commons, some ask to be licensed for Getty Images. All have embed codes available for your blog or site.

Dennys: News Politics Comedy Science Arts & Food: Fun St. Patricks Day Facts To Ponder While You Swill Green Beer: From Denny: Mardi Gras just happened last month, and, well, Lent can be a dull affair while we are waiting for Easter. So, why not spice it up with some St. Patrick's Day frivolity and celebration?

South Louisiana is primarily Catholic and we like our champion demon-chasing warrior saints. Honoring him is serious business.

Here in Louisiana we celebrate with none other than a St. Patrick's Day Parade, complete with official bead-throwing and green beer freely flowing.

Since all good holy days have a serious component along with the feasting here's some brain food to feed you too. Be sure to check out my other St. Patrick's Day posts at the end of this post. Lots of interesting historical trivia, quotes, poems, Irish blessings and funny thoughts too.

Romancing The Chocolate: Cookies: Almond Nuggets with Chocolate Drizzle

Romancing The Chocolate: Cookies: Almond Nuggets with Chocolate Drizzle: From Denny: Chocolate and almonds are the ideal combination for a cookie. This is basically a sugar cookie with sliced almonds that makes for a stiff dough.

It is a simple exercise of dropping the cookie dough onto the cookie sheet - so that makes it easy even for beginner bakers. The chocolate comes in when you ice the cookie with bittersweet chocolate that has been melted together with real butter and almond extract.

What's amusing is how the recipe creator actually thinks these mere 24 cookies will last long enough to make it into a covered container. Bring your friends! :)
