You know what really grinds my gears. People not liking the idea of something rather than not liking the actuality of it. Brownies with nuts fall right into this category. I'm sure you've all experienced this scenario before:
Mr Hungry: Ohhh, are those brownies?
You: Sure are!
Mr Hungry: Oh, but are those nuts?
You: Uh-huh....
Mr Hungry: Urgh, I'll pass.
*Mr Hungry walks away shaking head*
Now, if you've tried nuts in your brownies and just can't get away with them, that's fine. Each to their own and all that jazz. But, if you just assume you don't like nuts to roll with the majority, you're no friend of mine!
Come on guys, lets unite, lets be friends even. Just give nuts a chance. For me.
Thanks to Tiffany of A Spoonful & A Heap for these delightfully nutty beasts! You're slowly helping me convince my boy that nuts are tasty too :)
