I always look forward to your roundup. :) Yay for honeycomb ice cream! (Hi, Dini!)

I have been on a contest kick lately, so I'm excited to see one that involves chocolate.

And of course I love the junk food brownies! I've been trying to figure out something salty to put in the middle of a brownie that's half chewy dark chocolate and half white chocolate, and this gave me some ideas.

Have a great weekend!

Thank you so much for the Shoutout!! :D (Hi to you too Katie!!)
Cannot wait to check out some of these awesome links! The junkfood brownies sound awesome! but I cant wait to read your article on the theory of colour! That always fascinated me!
Hope you have a GREAT weekend!

Thank you for your sweet comment, Dini!! And for appreciating that I write about art too. :-) I loved coming across your blog and will certainly be sharing more links in the future.

Katie: I hope you win the contest!! And enjoy those junk food brownies. Too clever, right?
