Last weekend Jorge dug out the sod in the backyard in two spots for me to plant my raised garden beds in. He sweated his booty off and got a big blister. This weekend I was supposed to do my part and plant the actual garden. That didn’t happen. I bet you can guess how thrilled Jorge is.
I could blame it on not having any sleep because Ellie is sick with a nasty cold. Poor kid has a super raspy voice, cough and is congested like crazy. I could also blame it on all the stuff we had going on this weekend.
However, if I really tried, I probably could have squeezed it in today. But a garden doesn’t grow money, extra hours or chocolate…making it much lower on my to-do list.
I swear I am going to get it planted this week, but if someone could come up with a plant that grows chocolate chips in the meantime — that would be superb. 😉
These Rocky Road Brownies are perfection. You sadly can’t grow them in the garden (yet — fingers crossed), but you can whip them up quickly! The brownie base is dense and fudgey and then topped with a layer of marshmallows, chocolate chunks and nuts!

I just finished eating 2 of these brownies. I made them for my son to celebrate the end of school and I already ate two…and he’s not home for another 3 hours. I blame you. 😉
I would so plant chocolate chip plants EVERYWHERE. And make these ALL THE TIME.
Ha ha! Girl, I know exactly what you mean. It took me an entire WEEK to get six perennials in the ground. One thing at a time. (Literally.) Good work on the brownies!
These ooey gooey brownies look downright delectable! You can’t go wrong with a dense, fudgy brownie, and the melted marshmallows are the perfect topper! Thanks for the recipe!
Poor Ellie!! Also, the only way I think you’d get me working in the garden was if it could actually grow chocolate…
These brownies look absolutely perfect.
If we could grow brownies in a garden…well there would be a lot more gardeners! Ha!
