whoops, haven't posted in awhile, but i guess that doesn't really matter since it appears no one really reads about our stupidity anyway hahaaaa..... anyway, so the cheese pie was demolished. i think. it's been to long so i don't really remember. the MAIN reason we haven't amde anything for awhile is because (if you ghost readers don't remember) we ran out of stevia making our cheese pie. soooo, we finally conned our mom into driving us to the nearest Trader Joe's (nearly 1 hr away in case you were wondering)and bought some bulk stevia. =) Trader Darwin's variety.....on a side note, why does Trader Joe's sell Trader "Darwin's" stuff?? what is Trader Darwin's anyway? why don't they just sell it under Trader Joe's. maybe Trader Joe had a brother? why do we care so much anyway?
moving right along. to make a long story short, we attacked our next project, chocolate cherry biscotti, with gusto; certain that our new steiva woul be a sort of magical charm that would make all our cooking efforts worthwhile. we made them, tasted the dough (mmmmm sweettttt) rolled it into a log, baked it, cut it into biscotti, popped them back into the over, took them out (smelling deliciously chocolaty) and took a big bite! ...........remember how the brownies tasted? yea, it was kinda reminicent of that. sweet? most definately not =\ it wasn't a huge failure though, the unsweetened dried cherries were a nice touch, the texture was impeccable, and they tasted fab with sweetened tea. (sweetened with setvia of course)
oh and in another side note, i nearly doubled the amount of steiva Lisa Jobs called for........and dad cautiously took one bite and screwed up his face like a five-year-old who just got his candy taken away. thanks for building us up dad. and no, he didn't finish the biscotti. he just went away saying "why should i waste my calories on THAT??" >=(
