we made brownies.
these were, alas, not an impromptu batch of brownies. they were brownies-out-of-a-box. organic brownies out of a box, no less.

we made pasta beforehand, which was impromptu, and turned out fabulously. we waited for the brownies to cook. lacking any toothpicks or a clock, we guessed they were done when our fingers no longer were covered in brownie goo upon poking. we pulled them out of the oven and put them on the table. with much excitement, we pried one free.

"hmm... doughy and tasteless. well then."

however, i dutifully cut them up and wrapped them in plastic. it turns out that brownies improve with boredom. i've eaten four in the past half-hour.
