"Who could ever weary of moonlit nights and well-cooked rice?"
__Japanese proverb
"What I love about cooking is that after a hard day,
there is something comforting about the fact that
if you melt butter and add flour, then hot stock, it will get thick! It's a sure thing.
It's a sure thing in a world where nothing is sure!"
__Nora Ephron
"A good cook is like a sorceress who dispenses happiness."
__Elsa Schiaparelli
"Noncooks think it's silly to invest two hours' work
in two minutes' enjoyment; but if cooking is evanescent,
so is the ballet. "
__Julia Child
"Cooking is a creation."
__Piero Selvaggio
"'Tis an ill cook that cannot lick his own fingers."
__William Shakespeare
"Cooking is like love.
It should be entered into with abandon or not at all."

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1) Preheat oven to 350�. Grease and flour a 9x13" bakin' pan.
2) Melt margarine in a medium sized saucepan, then remove from heat.
3) Add cocoa powder, white sugar, eggs, almond extract, and
vanilla extract in exactly that order, stirrin' well after each addition.
4) Add flour, bakin' powder, and salt, stirrin' 'til just moistened.
5) Fold in nuts.
6) Spread batter in prepared pan and bake for twenty to twenty-five minutes, or 'til brownies have begun to pull away from the edges of

and the best of intentions for whoever wants to try 'em,
but if somethin' goes wrong, don't blame the varmint.*
