No Quilting Today
I was having a chocolate craving this afternoon and did not want to take the time to bake something in the oven so I searched on Google for microwave brownie recipes. Found one that sounded good but then remembered that I was out of butter. Went back to Google and searched for microwave brownies made with oil and saw one that sound really good. The recipe said to bake for six minutes but after that time they were still undone looking so cooked for six more minutes. They taste great and are somewhat chewy and candy like. And with cooking that long they were slightly hard the way I like. I made microwave brownies years ago and cooked too long and they were hard like biscotti which I love. That is why I cooked these longer than recommended and certainly a lot easier than making biscotti. But I also love regular brownies cooked for the proper amount of time.
Today I did not get up until a couple of minutes after one. One would think that after getting up around eight and working and being up for sixteen hours yesterday that I would immediately fall asleep when I went to bed at midnight. Not me, I was still awake at five this morning. I just hate when that happens. So as a result I did not get that much done today. Actually all I did this afternoon was bake a pan of brownies, decided where to place each block on the front of the quilt, did a load of laundry, and studied my Sunday School lesson. I just could not get going this afternoon but I did do a lot of thinking about things I want to do on the quilt so guess the day was not a complete waste of time.
It is only ten thirty but I am very sleepy so going to bed and pray that I fall asleep soon.
