Oh my! Your brownies look so chocolate-y! What a beautiful picture of you and your daughter-in-law! I am so sorry for both of your losses. The bracelet certainly is a beautiful tribute.
ReplyDeleteThese fudge brownies are hard to look when it's almost midnight. I have a very weak spot for brownies and oh my...this looks perfect...
ReplyDeleteI can never resist brownies and yours look fantastic. Pretty pic of two pretty ladies too (breast ca also runs in my family). I will have to get my act together to bake some cupcakes for October as well.
ReplyDeleteI also love that bracelet! I will click on that link in a mo.
* Thanks for the Facebook invite too but I don't have FB sadly :(
Oh, hát ez fantasztikusan néz ki! Van egy nagyon kedves, csokifüggő barátnőm, el fogom készíteni neki, szerintem odáig lesz érte. :))
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post, Lizzie! First up, these decadent brownies!!! SO beautiful...I'm glad you featured them again so I can put them on my baking list. Bill is currently pleading for Tollhouse cookies again :)
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the focus on breast cancer awareness. What a thoughtful daughter in law...I love the idea of these cute bracelets. My MIL is a survivor...a 60 year survivor as she was diagnosed before she was married!
Have a wonderful week, my friend. xoxo
Fudgy, almost gooey...those brownies look divine!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo of you and Cara!
What lovely brownies Elisabeth. They look so dark and moist... just divine. Have a nice day.
ReplyDeletethe brownies...the kugel....sigh, overwhelmingly fantastic!!!! I don't know why all my recent comments haven't been posting lately bella, normally when I hit "post comment" it shows immediately, but lately it just "disappears" - at first I thought maybe you had changed your setting to moderate comments, but then i heard that other people are having problems posting on some blogger sites too :( My MAC crashed a few weeks ago and I've had to use our HP laptop which has a different browser, maybe that's why. I'm using my sister's MAC now :) but I have missed you so. Your Israeli couscous had me in a trance, the colors were so magnificent and I longed for it long after I left your site! Hanging in there in my last 3 weeks of pregnancy (hoping it doesn't last the next 3 weeks) - definitely feeling weary, definitely persevering....sending warm wishes and warm thoughts your way this week, much love sweet bella!
ReplyDeleteLucious brownies, and with my favorite chocolate too! Nice photo of you and Cara :)
ReplyDeleteHugs
I agree, your brownies do look luscious! I love the photo of you with your daughter-in-law Cara! You have a beautiful family, Elisabeth. Thanks for bringing awareness to this very important cause. I have a sister-in-law going through radiation right now and I'm so sorry to hear about your mom and Cara's mom. I stopped by the website and the bracelet is beautiful - with 50% going to breast cancer research, I'm going to purchase a few for Christmas gifts. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth,these brownies look simply the best,loved the dark color along with the gooey chocolaty centre,just the way I like them...mmm..mmm You & Cara look so good,you have a lovely family and the bracelet is very pretty and stands for such a powerful cause,thanks for the ongoing breast cancer awareness. Lots of love & hugs!!!

ReplyDeleteBreast cancer is a largely unknown disease until today, despite the fact that it affects almost ten percent of the women above the age of forty years all over the world. The causes of this killer cancer are not known even after decades of research into it.

Millions of women are affected with breast cancer all around the world. Breast cancer is growing like an epidemic and is predicted that 45,000 patients will die from breast cancer, this year. If you feel a solid lump in your breast, you must visit a specialist for consultation.
ReplyDeleteBreast cancer is the most feared disease amongst women and yet most ladies actually do not know that much about it. This article highlights what women should know but very often don't hear. It will empower them to make informed decisions about how they want to approach their own breast health.
