Double Chocolate Chili Brownie Cookies

Kudos to Elizabeth at Guilty Kitchen for whipping up these completely amazing-looking Double Chocolate Chili Brownie Cookies.  

These remind me of drinking Mexican hot chocolate while visiting family in California... during summer I am all about healthy foods and fancy salads but winter makes me want to pull out my apron and bake.  Mmmm... we had our first big frost last night and these (plus a glass of festive red wine) look perfect to take away the chill.

Aww... check out Animals Talking in All Caps, my new favourite website.  

The internet is amazing sometimes.

Manchester ahoy

I have another post over on Matador travel about my recent trip to Manchester... in the meantime, check out this awesome photo of the Lowry Centre (by startinsalford on Flickr), new home of the BBC in Salford.  Went to my brother-in-law's graduation there last year, am glad I've been to see it in person!
