Not So Sweet Home Alabama

Yes, it's me, AngieDoe, and yes, I'm really stuck in Alabama for the ENTIRE summer.
With a job that doesn't start until the 7th of June, one must find something to do with their time, and as good as "lounging around the house"all day sounds, it get's old, for me at least, after about 4 days.
Therefore, I decided, after be inspired by the movie Julie & Julia, to start a blog of my very own.

SO, This is just me attempting to successfully survive an entire summer in this hell hole that the map of the United States calls ALABAMA......

Enjoy,

Chocolate Thunder from Alabama!!!!

Pierre Conielle said "Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from the praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile."

Well after lastnight's Laker game, I needed some real joy. If you didn't already know, the Lakers lost to the Suns lastnight and now the series is now tied 2-2. I tried to make myself an omelette this morning for breakfast, but that turned out looking about as good as Michael Jackson's 18th nose job....ok, sorry Michael. you know I love you. R.I.P.

So since my breakfast wasn't worthwhile, I decided to make something that's not exactly the healthiest dish I could've prepared, but that contained an ingredient that brings me real joy...CHOCOLATE! If you really know me, then you know that I believe there is no such thing as too much chocolate. So, I decided to make my own version of Outback Steakhouse's Chocolate Thunder from Down Under. Instead, it's the Chocolate Thunder from Alabama. In a way, it's still down under...I guess, since Alabama is in the south lol.

It's basically a warm brownie (this one had walnuts...Mmmmm), topped with vanilla ice cream (Blue Bell ice cream), and hot fudge (Hershey's chocolate syrup). It was really easy to make, and let me tell you, it was DEFINITELY worthwhile. :)
