They've begun to bake now wafting their aromas about routing their chocolate into my snout With nares flared I savor each morsel of scent. They weave their way into the sinew of my being riveting each nerve to the ready tantalizing me tempting me titilating my tongue with anticipation. Anguish begins chewing its way into my demeanor citing me to riot each ounce of common sense, should I tempt to carry out my plan, the plan I had to share wholeheartedly, with friend, with neighbor that I may not undo any good that's been accomplished heretofore. Surely those nutty, fully insane brownies that are lacing themselves up within my increasingly powerless self would fully undo me vein by vein limb by limb will by will and would place me in the valley of darkness. The darkness of rich, fudgy, sweet tender chocolate. Only five and a half minutes to go of this life as I know it. Soon it will be a river of creamy cocoa fluff to chew and endure, and it is such a burdensome task with which to deal. © July 17, 2001 |

Sounds delicious, throw in some walnuts and I'll eat the next batch. Do not fear going forward slowly, |

Thanks, all, glad you enjoyed and you're not on your way over here to string me up. Shadow, I was fresh out of walnuts but I had some mixed nuts in the freezer. Never made them like this before, but there's enough rich, fudgy, chewy chocolate to combat the odd nuts. At least the tern "odd nuts" isn't an oxymoron. There's Brazil nuts, cashews, hazel nuts, almonds and pecans. |

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sounds GOOD. Shall I send a self-addressed, postage paid next day mail box that would hold, say, 3 dozen? |

Well, I. if I cut them small enough, maybe I could make them 3 doz. But wouldn't it be cheaper to make yourself a box  I know but not as much fun as TAKING MINE! eh? |
