Who doesn’t love brownies?! I’m kind of famous for these at work. If I don’t make them at least twice a year, I lose tenure! 🙂 My dear friend, Mary, gave this recipe to me years ago back when we were next-door neighbors. I’ve been making them ever since.

Good Dessert, Bad Dessert
I made this last night for tonight’s dessert. It is actually good for you while tasting indulgently yummy! I can’t take the credit for this concoction.

Well, I found a solution this evening that won’t waste those hours at the gym. I’ve… Continue reading (Ba)Nana Bread
