dessert experiment
Made brownies with crushed peppermint sticks on top this weekend. Trying to emulate my aunt's amazing recipe for selfsame brownies, but I got a tough, glassy top instead of the chunky crispy bits. So I'll have to get the details from my aunt. But they were most delicious, even if a little challenging to eat.
Staying late at work today since FE's got a late class. Figured I'd take advantage of getting to ride home fast in a car rather than slow in a bus, as well as the opportunity to have a few uninterrupted hours to get some thorny, difficult stuff done that requires concentration. Having just finished this thorny stuff, and feeling pretty confident I'll get other needed things done this week, I'm thinking I'm going to head into the weekend not thoroughly drained from work stupidity. So refreshing.
