your matzah brittle ROCKS! i made it last year and it was sooooo good, i couldn’t stop eating it!

Babe… it could be worse. You could have a gyno visit. See? Boys? Not so awful anymore.

Wait… You gave that dolt your CUPCAKES & he’s not *called* back for another date?! That’s like total BS. Wait there, I’ll get the dogs & we’ll hunt him down for you. I pity the fool! Cheers & Good Luck! ‘VJ’

It’s amazing the amount of attention I got after I learned to bake brownies. What really works is finding the Hershey’s raspberry semi-sweet chips and stirring them into the batter right before baking. Hershey’s now also makes these raspberry-cream-filled dark chocolate morsels. I’ll have to try those out in the brownies as well. Then I’ll have to bring them to work because I have a temporary promotion that I’m trying to keep.

Oh, on the baking subject — Many years ago I did make dinner for this woman I was dating at the time, and then she broke up with me after I made dinner (and she finished eating). So us men don’t have the monopoly on being dolts!

“In other silly boy news, I received an email from Midwest Guy today complimenting me on the cupcakes I gave him last night. No mention of hanging out again or anything so I don’t know if I should reply, or what to say. Ugh.”

I think you’re trying to play too many games here. You don’t know if you should reply? Of course you should. What to say? How about, “I’m glad you liked them!” No further plotting/planning required.

Icky, then you’ll be happy to know I responded last night by saying: Thank you.

Loved the matzah brittle — made it last year and brought it to a seder, and it was the most popular dish of the night.
