I’m speechless

[private]

No, really.

I have nothing at all to say right now. Take note of the date and time, it happens so rarely.

Do you ever have so much and so little to do at the same time? I have all these minor tasks that are sitting here like gnats buzzing around my face, but I refuse to touch any one of them.

Its thundering outside and my house is dark and dreary from the shadows and its making me want to haul my coke, my mini brownie, and my butt back up into bed.  I know the absolute second I get heavily involved into some project, the Internet will crap out for the next 4 hours leaving me in a state of panic wondering if whatever I was doing saved.

Come to think of it, my desk could sorely use to be cleaned off.

I guess I could do that.

But I am not sure I have reached that level of complete and utter boredom to attempt it. No. No, I have not.

Ooh, I know, I’ll talk about these brownies. I bought brownies, which rarely happens, to make with Charlotte. I usually buy cakes, but this time I decided to step out of the box and get brownies.  Whoever said stepping out of the box forgot to include instructions to read the box first.

Somehow I missed the big picture on the front that was for MINI brownies. They came with the worlds tiniest brownie pans to create the worlds tiniest brownies. Morsels, if you will.

Colossal disappointment upon realizing this predicament.

I had a 4 year old ready with her spatula for some cooking. I couldn’t very well return the box for regular person size.

I am not denying that they were tasty.

Really tasty.

But I had to eat like 6 of them to equal one brownie and they only came with enough batter for 12.

And since the box insisted on telling me that they were “only 100 calories a piece”, I knew that I was having a 600 calorie dessert and it totally put a damper on eating them.  I mean, I forced my way through, but ignorance tastes better.

Nope. I have nothing to say today.

    You’re right. Ignorance does taste better. I make it a point to not read the nutritional labels on snack products. I only read the ingredient list to make sure it’s not going to send my son into a state of hyperness that will make me want to tie him to a chair (red dye).

    Love the header.

  2. I have to say, I love brownies any way them come. But the little pans would be annoying.

  3. Natalie says:

    Ok…those brownies are ridiculously small! But hey, it looks like they’re mostly edges…my favorite part! ;)

  4. Brandy says:

    Nope you have nothing to say Trisha! Never seen brownies like that? I bet Ki would love to make them .. so need to know where to find them!

  5. Stefanie says:

    This sounds like me the past week. Nothing to blog about and too much work to do. Grr…hope we both get out of this funk. Pass some mini brownies my way please! :)

  6. Caroline says:

    Oh, brownies. Crap I just started Weight Watchers on Monday and now I am thinking about brownies. I wonder how many points each of those little bad boys has?

  7. YA but I bet you ate them and they were good too.

  8. Firefly says:

    See I know I forgot something :) I love your header LOL ;)

  9. Firefly says:

    LOL I don’t remember last time I made those!

  10. Cat says:

    See that’s why I just buy those frozen Betty Crocker brownie dish things and just bake it.

  11. Matt says:

    I would have eaten all twelve! My wife made cookies the other night with our son and I had eaten 4 before she had them all frosted.

  12. Elizabeth says:

    I would have eaten six, too. If you’re going to have a dessert, HAVE A DESSERT, right?

  13. OMG too funny…..I made the brownies the other night too. We are totally on the same wavelength. I got so pissed off at those pans.

    I need to start writing potential posts. I have all of these thoughts in my head. And then I forget.
