Desserts

So there was this little column thing in the newspaper, and the writer had apparently gotten some email with a recipe for a chocolate cake that could be baked in a mug in the microwave.
And she said that a similar recipe for brownies would obviously be "even better".
Huh? Since when was this an undisputed fact?! Or even a generally agreed upon opinion?
Newspapers give me new reasons to hate them every day.


If I were to make a list of the best five desserts, in order, it would look like this:

1. Cookies
2. Jello
3. Ice cream
4. Pie
5. Cake



...As you can see, brownies did not even make the list. Not mine, anyway.
There aren't even that many kinds of brownies. And they're all boring.

Furthermore, if the list were to continue, it would go something like:

6. Popsicles
7. Pudding

I would put in milkshakes and shaved ice and other frozen dessert type things, but they're fairly similar to ice cream, popsicles, and either ice cream or popsicles, respectively. So they may not deserve their own entry.
Anyway, brownies would probably not even make the top ten. I just don't like them that much. I mean, they're OK; I'll eat them. But they've got nothing on cookies. The great thing about cookies is that there are so many kinds, and they aren't so difficult to make so there are many opportunities to eat them.
Jello gets second because it's simple and tasty and there's lots of cool stuff you can do to make it even better (whipped cream, fruit, etc.).
