Maybe not the best bakers?

We CLEARLY need help.  Stupid Brownies.

Nick and I were invited to have dinner with two of our favorite people ever, Jessie and Jonathan. I am a lot like Jessie and Nick is a lot like Jonathan so it was bound to be a perfect night. Earlier this week, Nick and I were reading in our schools newspaper and found a recipe for eggshell brownies. Sounded difficult, but considering the fact that Nick and I bake often, we thought it would be an easy task. Wrong. While trying to blow the egg out of its shell, the entire egg shattered in Nick's mouth. Gross. We also had a spoon slip and fling batter all over me. We had managed to get brownie batter everywhere, all over the counters, on the floor, and even inside cabinets. Trying to pipe the perfect amount of batter into the shells was nearly impossible and I was frustrated easily. Thankfully, Nick is extremely patient and piped the rest. We took our weird dessert to the Grider's house because if anyone was willing to try our eggshell brownies, it was them. They were so pumped to try our dessert that was most definitely NOT picture perfect. They were good sports and ate the brownies even with the risk of finding pieces of shell in the brownie. After eating our messed up brownies we were planning on playing lots of games. Nick and I were obviously going to win. We ended up only playing one game and then spent the rest of the night talking. It was perfect. I got to talk with three of my favorite people ever for hours. It got late and Nick and I had to rush out the door but the night was absolutely perfect even though our brownies were not.

so excited (:
