It's that time again for the fastest 2 minutes in sports...The Kentucky Derby! (http://www.churchilldowns.com/). Check out the latest happenings. There are also a lot of festivities surrounding the Derby (http://www.kdf.org/events/eventcalendar.asp). So, you shouldn't be bored....get out and enjoy it!!
One of the things that I truly enjoy is making chocolate. For Derby time, we have "Chocolate Horseshoes." They are a solid piece of chocolate cast in the shape of a real horseshoe, provided graciously by Paula Nieto, founder and director of The LUCI Center (http://www.thelucicenter.org/) out in beautiful Shelbyville Ky. (By way of dimensions, the horseshoe is a 00 shoesize if that means anything to anyone - I love random facts). They look like...well a rusted horseshoe! But they are oh so good to eat...I'm holding the very first one we did.
We are showcasing our new bourbon ball this weekend at the Derby Museum for the Thoroughbred Club (http://www.thoroughbredclub.org/). They are hosting a fundraiser for The LUCI Center which we are delighted to be a part of. I hope many of you can come out and be a part of this event.
