    Marvy, you live just close enough that I could take you up on that offer : ) And cream cheese icing on brownies? How did I never think of that before. I have leftover homemade cream cheese icing in the fridge right now, may have to bake a batch tomorrow.

    hey yeah, just a couple hours drive and you could be here, eating brownies with me :)


    honestly i was too lazy to look up the cream cheese swirl recipe so i just threw cream cheese icing on them. not bad, not bad at all!....although i kinda wish i left some without so i could add some PB on top.....I think i will just do something like that with the next batch

    Crushed oreos sounds good on top

    hmmmmm, interesting idea. that could be really good. too bad the icing is already set & i do not have any oreos. that will have to be on the list to try later.

    It's not uncommon for me to miss sleep several nights out of the week. So I know your pain, OP. Also, sweet Sithis. Those brownies sound awesome. Good thing I have cake.

    I've suffered from insomnia for years...I take 3mg of melatonin and even that sometimes takes hours before I finally crash...

    Melatonin is very hit or miss for me. when it works, it works well. when it doesn't work i will stay p even later that night.

    and did you ever notice that it makes you feel off balance? after i take it i feel very groggy and stumble around like i'm drunk in the morning.

    I go through cycles of no sleep... I hate the feeling of being so tired you feel like you are walking in slow motion all day... And then still too tired to sleep.

    Actually I never feel the groggy side effects with it...but if it doesn't work it's usually not working for a few days and by then I am like "grrr" and about to murder someone because I am sooo exhausted...
