Ha, so I just read a cooks illustrated review of boxed brownie mixes, and THEY said that the kind you got were god-awful and the only boxed brownie mix that had any redeeming value was Ghiradelli. Perhaps another brownie night is in the works?

but think of all the calories you burned to make the brownies! scrounging up the equipment, going to the store, mixing feverishly, BENDING OVER to put the pan in the oven… the way i see it, you’re coming out even. and there are starving children who have no dessert at all in buffalo. they would happily accept even the most disappointing of brownies without complaint.

Actually Browwnies are like ex-boyfriends..Some are Brown…some are nutty or gooey….some are rich….some are warm and soft to the touch…but hard….on the edges.. some are burnt..like burnt out!!!!!Some ya want the whole damn pan..but they want to be shared!!!!! But they all if you leave them alone get stale and sometimes moldy..then you can only do one thing…DUMP THEM!!!!!!
