Baking and other adventures

So between my computer getting devoured by spam-spewing viruses and the "Chocolate Baking Day!" that I thought would be a walk in the park but actually took all day, I didn't write a proper blog for today. Instead, here is a picture of the amazing brownies and not so successful turnovers (undercooked & exploded) that Husband-cat and Drama Queen™ Cece made.

The brownie recipe is Ina Garten's "Outrageous Brownies" and can be found on the Food Network's site (Cece is a cooking maniac, we chose this out of the billion she sent us). It is so good it will change your life.

Don't plan a baking day for a week after you move and you have no baking supplies... or know where your appliances are. Any supply run which involves Trader Joe's, Safeway, Whole Foods, and an emergency appliance pick-up from a friend? Bad idea. Doing this supply run on Halloween? Very bad idea. That said, the brownies were delicious and by God, I pulled it off.
