An appreciation for someone, who has a generous heart and is clearly generous with her time as well. It is a sort of Ode to the Chocolate Brownie.
Known as @Mozartsgirl on Twitter, Rachel has two blogs; and yes you won't get any prizes for guessing that she's a Baker (noting the capital 'B'). These blogs are:
"Mozartsgirl's Blogspot"
and
"Brownies for Mozart"
Oh, and one final thing, you might not have noticed, she is a fan of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Wolfie to his friends, which does of course include Rachel.
In the course of a couple of months she sent to me, at her own expence, two large boxes of her brownies - the first were walnut based, the second revelled in the glorious title of "Peanut Butter Swirls". I hesitated at the thought of peanut butter based chocolate bronwies at first, but my hesitation was only momentary. As soon as the box was unsealed, the aroma hit me and I was in dreamland! You might not be surprised, therefore at a few references to "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland".
I hope you enjoy the poem: "Eat Me"

What can I say to this but...thank you! You are very welcome - so glad to have 'met' you, and I'm sure that one day it will be in person. Spreading a little happiness with brownies is my way bringing joy to this sometimes dark world!! I couldn't resist that peanut fragrance either - I took a chance that you'd enjoy it too! The poem is one of the nicest things to have happened to me this year. Thanks again x
ReplyDeleteShe deserves every bit of it----how wonderful....both the poem and the lovely miss Rachel!!
ReplyDeleteAs a father of a Royal Marine Warrant Officer and a Royal Navy Petty Officer I can see your meaning.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, John Gillies. It doesn't take much to appreciate the aroma and taste of these exceptionally rich chocolate brownies.
