Alice had seen the ghost, but what he could be making loud noise in an old house? The one time she had been down in the basement was her buying the house unseen. Once she saw the shelves with old glass jars, she was a de put off. But what made her keep the door shut and locked was the abrupt end of the concrete floor halfway across the room Because nothing good ever happened in a basement with a diet for Alice had seen enough horror movies to know that

Ace stared at the basement door, trying to gather enough confidence to open it and march down the stairs like she owned the place. Because she did-or she would, once she finished paying her mortgage in 30 years. Alice took a deep breath and yanked the door open. She marched down the stairs, only to stop abruptly at the bottom. Because she was face to face with not a ghost at all it was a calico-cat one who looked utterly unimpressed by her brave journey into the basement

The rain is sapping footsteps on the roof

 It sounds a lovely dance inside my head

The blankets form a most enticing nest

They wrap me in a shroud that won't undrape

 I'm tempted further by my furry friends

They've taken er the mattress in a pile

Oh, how want to nestle in with them!

But first, I know that must work awhile

I promise, bed, I will be back for you

I’ll surely nap before the day is through

Egg help emulsify the disparate ingredients of your recipe into one homogeneous batter or dough. To achieve this is most effective something with protein or fat that will bind to the starch. One options a quarter cup of plain yogurt, sour cream or butter for each egg- either dairy or non-dairy will work just fine. Another option is ground flax or chia seeds. For each egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground seeds with 3 tablespoons of warm water and leave the mixture to rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes before using.

Either of these options will effectively bind your ingredients. However, if you are baking something that needs to rise, like a cake, you may want to give your dessert a little additional help.
