Day 331 – Brownies Day!

I was totally stoked when I saw that today is National Brownie Day! Who doesn’t love brownies, right?!?! I thought for my intention I would celebrate this day by trying something new. I decided on the Betty Crocker Peanut Butter with Hersheys and Reeses…YUM! So after dinner that’s just what I made. Usually we like the chocolate with walnuts but these were extremely good.

Then just to take things up a notch, I looked up on the National Day sight the background on this day and shared it with the fam. Did you know that brownies were first created when a group of ladies attending a fair in the late 1800’s asked a Chicago chef at the Palmer House Hotel to create a small cake-like dessert that they could take in their boxed lunch with them? To this day that same hotel serves the original recipe on their menu (it features an apricot glaze and walnuts). Anyways, it was a fun fact to go along with our tasty treat.

Today was a good day. #Cheers #HGAl
