I like it a lot!

Our move went well!  We have all adjusted to the new area fairly well. The weather is amazing  it's least 10 degrees warmer than where we lived before! The neighborhood is quiet,clean and the people are friendly. Most of the residents have lived her for 10+ years.

The actual apartment its self is much bigger than our last one and it feels homey and cheerful.

We even have a little lizard that likes to hang out on our patio, the tadpoles named him ED.

What I love the most about our move is we now have a dining room table and can have family meals.

 We just finished our first meal. Mini meatloaves ( I have the best meatloaf in town) and salad and for dessert bite size mint brownies!


Here is the recipe I use for regular brownies. To make the mint brownies I just add Andes Chocolate Mints to the bottom of the pan. For the bite size I use a Wilton silicone mold

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powde

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350
  2.  Grease and flour an 8 inch square pan
  3. In a large saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter. Remove from heat, and stir in sugar, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat in 1/3 cup cocoa, 1/2 cup flour, salt, and baking powder. Spread batter in pan.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes  
If using the bite size mold it only takes about minutes.
