It makes me sad to consider how Maggie O'Connell would feel about what Janine Turner is up to these days.

television, politics

To be completely honest with you, I'm sad about the state of a lot of celebrity personalities and some of my closest friends and family at the moment. The support for Mit the Twit on my Facebook makes me want to vomit.

THANKFULLY, the man in your icon has a beautiful twitter account full of inspirational sayings and disdain for Mitt Romney. Lol. It is shocking the amount of bullshit that gets spewed every election year, man ( ... )

Yes, please, let me know how they turned out! I saw Paula Deen making brownies the other day and she used cocoa powder but she added boiling water to it first and turned it into syrup before adding it to her batter. I also thought that would be a good trick to try... but truthfully, I'd prefer using real chocolate. And I also realize that my idea of a brownie is different than some. A lot of folks think a brownie should be like cake. If I want cake, I'll make cake. I want my brownies to be fudgy!

I'd also love the gluten-free recipe you said was the best. I'm trying to find more gluten-free, and vegan recipes. (Speaking of vegan, you may be getting a note from T.Vo about vegan recipes since I mentioned to her that you know more about that sort of thing that pretty much anyone else I know. LOL.) I really do want to make my own brownies. I just need the right recipe. so thank you for helping me try to find it by sharing yours!!! You're the best. *hugs

Hmmm, I wonder what adding the boiling water does! Intriguing. And I agree, a brownie should NOT be like cake. Unless it's like... a super moist, chewy, fudgy cake. Lol.

I don't remember exactly how I did the gluten-free ones. I used the recipe I wrote out for you above, I just swapped out the wheat flour for a couple of gluten free flours. I think I probably used, hmm... maybe oat flour and tapioca starch? I'll ask my pop, he might remember. Nobody in my family is gluten-free so I've only had occasion to bake things that way twice. But I do have some experience with veganism! What kind of vegan recipes are you looking for? Dinner, dessert, snack...?

Haha, I'm such a dumbass, it's like a week later that I'm finally replying to this. Okay. The brownies were delicious. They were not cakey but idk what your standards are for "fudgy". They were more gooey-chewy I think? But maybe fudgier if you store them in the fridge.

Now I want more. I clearly have to work on finding a HEALTHY brownie recipe. I did make some a while back with zucchini in them...

Now who is the dumb ass? I'm replying almost a month later. LOL. I'm glad the brownies were delicious. I saved the recipe and will make them soon. It's getting to be that time of year when I spend more time inside baking and pining away from summer so it will be a nice winter project for me. :)

I hope you're doing well and having a lovely weekend. I just finished cleaning my house. It was very therapeutic. Cleaning is good for me after a rough week. Happy home is happy.

And even though I will ultimately regret it because I'm allergic, I've got my windows open to get some fresh air in here. YAY! And the house smells like crock-pot salsa poached chicken for taco salad. Mmmmmm.

It's a good day.
