Chocolate

They may have been a little shy when they predicted 18 inches. We have that much on the ground right now and it's still coming down, although it's not so much snow now as sleet. (Oh, you thought I meant 18 inches of chocolate?) When you get that much on the ground – snow, not chocolate – there's no turning back. This stuff will be on the ground until March. At least.

Luckily, I have brownies. (This is where the chocolate comes in.) Somebody gave me a box of chocolate brownie mix this past weekend. I hadn't seen a box of brownie mix for 20 years. But there it was. And Monday I went out and bought some eggs. And now it snows. Fate.

The brownies are cooling on the rack right now. Winter, do your worst.
