This is the best brownies recipe I have ever tried. It's super fudgie, gooey ooey goodness is unphantomable (is that a word?). Especially delicious right out of the oven!!

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup of butter or margarine, melted
4 oz melted chocolate
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 Tbsp water or dark rum (or espresso)
1/2 cup nuts if desired

Preheat oven to 350˚F. Grease 13x9 inch baking pan.
Combine flour, baking soda an dsalt in small bowl. Stir sugar, butter, chocolate, eggs, water and vanilla extract in large bowl. Stire in flour mixture. Stir in nuts. Spread into prepared baking pan.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out slightly sticky. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into bars.

Enjoy!!

Vegetables and Fruit garden

My son and I planted some okra and cantalope seedlings and some basil and mints in our backyard yesterday. I was not planning to get in the dirt, but it happens to be so. It was fun none the less. Well, Tommy had fun running around the yard amongst the tall beautiful purple flowers from our weeds :( Oh well, they're beautiful none the less. I just hope the chicken wire will keep the bunny out!!

Family and I are off to the Dogwood festival today. It will be very nice!! This will be the first time for us taking our son to an arts and crafts festival. I know...shame on us :(

Crochet Velvet Earrings in Moss Green

One of my favorite color: MOSS GREEN!! Elegantness in its own right. If there is such a thing as 'Urbanly Classy'...I think this is it!! Be careful viewing this picture guys as it has a calming effect, like the sea...even though they are green. :)

Back at home

We're back from Savannah. We had so much fun...it was sad to leave. It was a very pleasant trip...very inspiring. A very encouraging trip for an artist trying to find her way, her place in the universe such as me :)
