Celebrate The Small Things -- August 8

It's Friday and I'm Celebrating The Small Things!  Celebrate The Small Things is a weekly celebration where some bloggers have decided to post about something worth celebrating...no matter how big or small it is.

This week I'm celebrating boxed brownie mix.  I've made brownies from scratch before, and although the brownies were delicious, it was a lot of work.  With a boxed brownie mix, all I have to do is add an egg, and some water and oil...and BAM!  Deliciousness!  I love quick and easy...especially when it's combined with chocolate yumminess :)  And a touch of extra chocolate chips made the brownies even better...hey, you can never have too much chocolate!


What are you celebrating?

  5. I had to laugh. I'm one of those 'self-made is best' advocates - usually. I was in a hurry a few weeks ago and picked up 2 boxes of brownie mix, one with caramel and one with Reese's mixed in. I fell in love! Now, I have to eat my words ;)

    1. Well, self-made is best...then you know what you're putting in it, yadda-yadda...but with the box, you have ready to eat brownies in an hour :) You just can't argue with that!
