All I can muster

I am a pooped penguin.

I can only muster the energy to aimlessly peruse the iPad before I fall asleep each night. Here are two things I came across that you might find interesting? Sorry, this is the best I can do for right now.

Serious Eats: 10-minute No Bake Lime Cracker Pie

Sounds strange but, at the same time, kinda good? Right? Make it for me.

Also, I heard a really interesting story on NPR one night this week amidst runs to Lowe's and Home Depot. It was about face blindness and they did a test of the live audience on celebrity faces and I was shocked at the results. There were a few hundred people in the audience and fewer than 10 got all the celebrities correct (out of 10) and a handful didn't get any correct at all. And, this was just a normal audience - very surprising how many people have some degree of face blindness and may not know it.

You can take the Famous Faces Test here. I got all 30 correct, confirming my suspicion that I was pretty good with faces. Nice to know I have a skill to fall back on in case this house-fixing-uping does me in.

That sounds a lot like my new favorite, Frozen Lemonade Pie. http://www.food.com/recipe/frozen-lemonade-pie-397799 SUPER easy and super yummy to make! I topped each pie slice with a lemon drop. YUMM-O!

I knew all the faces, but I stumbled on two names. Still scored well --- and I will make you the pie -- Friday treat?
