I had the greatest time whale watching the other day, but when it comes to cooking, well, let's just say creativity always comes in handy. It started out innocently enough, I just wanted to make a really cool dessert for AS Day. A friend was willing to lend me a few bucks and besides, I love boats. I'd watched my mom make them dozens of times.
Every great cook starts by making up a shopping list.
I just needed brownie mix, eggs and oil. The top was a chocolate layer which involved the very difficult task of melting chocolate chips with a sprinkle of rain and an ocean of three parts H2O and one part salt. I took advantage of the hood on my infamous, bright fuschia jacket and tied it up so that I looked like Kenny from South Park. Some people don't realize how hard it is to get to the store when you don't have a car. As the boat picked up speed it rocked back and forth on the waves.
