Brownie Blues


I keep rewriting this post. I've had it open in a tab for days now and left unfinished. I still enjoy doing this blog but I went through a really tough time and I have trouble faking my emotions. I want this blog to be positive because cooking and baking are great passions of mine. If the tone of my blog is negative I feel like the blog would just be counterproductive.
Today I went for one of my long walks to sort out my thoughts and I didn't come to any concrete conclusions but I found a slight moment of clarity.  I would like to post as often as my psyche would allow.  I realized after sharing my thoughts with others, that most people feel the same why as I do. We're all just human, trying to figure it all out and seek happiness. My happiness comes when I bake. I don't want to promote emotional eating but I know I am victim of it... these brownies I made are the result of my overwhelming sadness. They turned out really well actually and I've been slowly eating them ever since. So maybe, thank god for brownies... otherwise this world would be a dull and scary place.

These are the brownies fresh out the oven

 I cut off the edges for a even look. The cut off pieces of brownies looked like large pieces of poop so I buried it in my cats litter box to play a prank on my mother.  It worked and it was quite hilarious.


 The finished product... 


Yom!

This is a recipe from Chloe's vegan cookbook and here's what I thought...
I changed a few things in the recipe.  I added apple sauce for moisture and used brown and white sugar instead of just white sugar.

Ease of recipe: 5/5

Taste: 5/5

Friends/Family thoughts: 4/5

Likely hood to remake recipe: 4/5
I would remake this recipe again but I would add extra things like bananas or nuts or even something special.... 

Overall Cooking Experience: 4/5

Bonus Casey Points: 0/1
Casey was not around to judge this recipe.


Final: 22/25

Having a bad day ?? Make these brownies !!! As you eat them, just remember keep on keeping on little one.
