When I was young and carefree I would go out dancing at night. Most of  the time I would get the urge between 9:00 and 10:00 pm, head out, and arrive  back home after 12:00 am.  I always found myself energized the following day  despite my lack of sleep.  I loved dancing.  I loved the late nights.
Husband,  kids, and a long early-morning commute have changed my options for  dancing and late nights.  Most evenings will find me winding down and  climbing into bed between 9:00 and 10:00 pm.
Sometimes I still feel that  longing.  The 9:00 craving.  The 9:30 restlessness.  The 10:00 urge.  There must be somewhere I need to be.  Something that must be done.  Dancing!?
I have found my replacement.
Food.
Sometimes it just means I get the munchies.
Quite a few evenings it means recipe research and experimentation.  This month alone has included the following late night recipes:  Fresh goat's milk mozzarella, baked healthy doughnuts, homemade yogurt and ice cream (without an ice cream machine).
We will see if this trend continues and I will post recipes soon!
