Anyhow- Last Wednesday, I did make brownies (with spinach & carrots), and banana bread (with cauliflower), and chocolate/peanut butter dip (with carrots) to dip apples in. (It took me 1/2 of the day to make/bake it all)! It was all ready to go in a tray to take with me to Pasadena the next day to have our community there try, and Reese gets a high fever that night. So obviously, I wasn't going anywhere the next day. So it sits in my freezer, waiting for this Thursday. However, we did try some of the brownies. I was careful not to serve them warm. The book warns to serve them cool - otherwise, you can taste the spinach. Wow! I sprinkled some powdered sugar on them - THEY WERE DELICIOUS! I am not a big brownie fan, but man - these were good. I couldn't limit myself to just one! They aren't terribly sweet - maybe that's why I like them. To be honest - they have a lot of fiber in them too - according to the book. I haven't made Bailey try these yet - he is not a fan of brownies... we will see when Thursday rolls around. And I can give you other peoples' opinions as well.

DAY 21: An unexpected Break with some brownies on the side
It's been a few days since I've made anything new. My daughter has had a fever for about 5 days straight. So my attention has been on her. She was really burning up. My hubby didn't even get a proper father's day celebration, because I was so pre-occupied. Oops! I feel really bad about that! My husband is such a great dad - just ask our kids, he deserves the best father's day ever! I managed to have the kids help make a present for Brian's dad for Father's day, but poor Brian kind-of got neglected! Reese is better now, so Maybe I'll have to make some of Brian's favorite recipes for him... hopefully - that will help make it up!
