giada & brownie perfection
went w/ chanda today to meet giada de laurentiis at sur la table...

she was probably the most down to earth of all the food network people i've met (jamie oliver & rachael ray)...she was so genuinely nice & happy that we were her fans...

i really like her now...

then we went to bread workshop to get sandwiches & after figuring out what we wanted (w/ the cashier staring) he told us sandwiches were only til 3pm what a butt chanda even said "why didn't you tell us" haha...they have pretty gourmety sandwiches & of course they make their own bread...we both bought a sweet baguette & chanda bought a cheese twist & i a valhorna brownie...all the desserts looks fab...peach tart & even the vanilla cupcake was decorated w/ fresh berries & such...

the cheese twist was addictive...i tried the baguette at home..it was almost sourdough-y..but it's also no acme...or semifreddi's for that matter...but i guess i will have to try the others to fully say that..they had an olive one & gruyere one etc...

but gawd the brownie...
i mainly bought it cuz it was made with valhorna chocolate

but it was possibly the best brownie i've had in my life...

it was topped w/ walnuts & i think butterscotch chips? very sparingly which added just the needed diversion from chocolate cuz it was a deep deep chocolate but it wasn't dense like you'd imagine...it was incredibly soft & moist & light...

perfection
