This is what we do on Friday nights.
We watch our daughter Madison cheer on her high school football team.
Tonight is extra special because it's Homecoming. Madison goes to the same high school that I went to, except she goes to the newer, much nicer version. My class is having a reunion tailgate party so we can reminisce about the old days. I may have to dig out my Swatch watch and Jessica McClintock Gunne Sax dresses - does anyone remember those???? This is what I am bringing to the tailgate:
Cookies 'n Cream Oreo Brownies - oh my are these thing yummy! Of course I had to try one, I couldn't have my classmates eating crappy brownies.... if there is such a thing. Here's what you need to make them.
Thought I would save a few calories by using the Weight Watchers Ice Cream - ha ha. Actually it was the only ice cream in my freezer right now.

She is so stinkin cute. I remember those days.. my oldest Emily was a cheerleader from 4th grade to Senior. I miss those days enjoy them while you can they grow up so fast. And the brownies look awesome.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture! Those brownies look amazing!!
ReplyDeleteThose brownies are the ultimate in brownies. I imagine it must be a great combo of textures what with the chewy brownie and the crunchy cookie in the middle.
ReplyDeleteVaguely! :)
