Birthday Blunder

My husband's birthday was Saturday. Since we had a wedding, I decided to surprise him with Bon Jovi tickets for Friday night. I wanted to make something for the tailgate, but nothing too elaborate that you couldn't eat with your hands.

Not to mention I had to work a full day so it had to be quick and easy over my lunch hour. I *settled* on a quick box of brownies. I decorated them with chocolate chips and sprinkes to make them a little bit more appealing.

I baked them according to the directions and still burnt them. Ugh, boxed mixed disaster! I guess that will teach me to bake from scratch! If anyone has a favorite brownie recipe - I would appreciate!

Star Sighting (literally) - Ringo Star

I work in Midtown Manhattan, and walking out for lunch today I ran into the 70th birthday celebration for Ringo Star. I threw myself in with the poppa - rozzi and waved to Ringo on his way into the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square. They also were throwing out peace and love cookies. I'm currently sitting at my desk enjoying a big red heart shaped cookie.

Thanks for the treat Ringo - Happy 70th Birthday!
