Dominoes Effect
Dominoes Effect was conceived by a group of six, 60+ friends who gather monthly for an afternoon of Mexican Train dominoes, accompanied by food, laughter and of course, conversations that move randomly through a myriad of topics including Medicare, health, theatre, electric bikes and how Judie with an "ie" has become the new Karen (of course there is a story there)! Some topics are best reserved for a mature listener group because....well, it's the Dominoes Effect!
After months of creative yet foggy minds molding the Dominoes Effect podcast into it's initial form, the group realized the complexity of recording a podcast while playing live rounds of Mexican Train. Thus, the Dominoes Effect podcast content is created from a variety of sources including conversations from the monthly gathering of friends, world events (yes, politics included) and the life journey of its host and guests. The podcast will bring in guests to share their knowledge and insights - making each episode unique as it evolves live!
You may not become wiser from tuning into the Dominoes Effect podcast, but your life's journey will be fuller, and you will learn to hold each moment before letting it go into the universe!
"If you let yourself be absorbed completely, if you surrender completely to the moments as they pass, you live more richly those moments." - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Dominoes Effect continues with Episode 15! Springtime brings Rich and Kim back with more interesting topics on aging well (or trying to), current events and a few stories that bring us back in time. Of course you need not worry, they also reviewed the political scene since the last episode was produced and that isn't easy to do in a time limited podcast! The duo tried a two-ingredient cheesecake (that doesn't have cheese) and have included the recipe below so you can give it a try if you wish! Thanks for your support of Dominoes Effect!
Two-Ingredient Cheesecake
INGREDIENTS
· 1 1/2 cups (360g) Greek yogurt, full-fat, I recommend Fage or Chobani for best results
· 3 large eggs, room temperature preferred.
· Fresh berries for serving (optional)
· Drizzle of honey or maple syrup for serving (optional)
· Lemon zest for serving (optional).
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 6-inch springform pan with parchment paper, pressing it into the base and slightly up the sides to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Add the Greek yogurt and eggs to a large bowl. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until the batter is completely smooth and well-aerated. Don’t skip this step. Proper mixing gives the cheesecake its light, creamy texture.
Step 3: Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Place on the center rack of your oven.
Step 4: Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still has a gentle jiggle, like set Jell-O. Pro tip: avoid overbaking or the texture will become dry and grainy.
Step 5: Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. This slow cool prevents cracking and keeps the surface smooth.
Step 6: Remove from the oven, cool to room temperature (about 30 minutes), then refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Overnight is ideal for the cleanest slices and best flavor.
Step 7: Once fully chilled, release from the springform pan and top with fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or lemon zest before serving.
