Process 2

I kind of left my readers hanging with my blog titled "Process".  I suppose that now I could explain what I was talking about? Haha. In mid- August, a major life change happened in my life.  I was transferred from the branch of my bank in Marble Falls, to our Westlake branch location.  I met a lovely person at the Westlake location who allowed me to stay on her couch, so I would not have to drive back and forth, until I was able to find my own place. She has become a very dear friend of mine.  We seemed to have an instant connection and I just started telling her things that I either don't tell people, or I wait a long time to tell people about.  Things worked out beautifully and I quickly found a wonderful roommate and a great place to live in Austin within my first month of transferring.  About a month after transferring, I got transferred once again, this time to our Barton Creek branch, but what came with it, was a promotion.  Instead of a teller, I am now a personal banker! I applied to go to graduate school, but that fell through. I did not get accepted, but I can always apply again, or figure something else out.  There's a reason for everything.  But God has definitely moved a lot in my life these past few months and I am very happy and grateful.

Ultimate Chocolate Chip Oreo Fudge Brownie


I made this amazing brownie last night.  I found the idea on Pinterest.  Here's what you do

you will need one of these & of course what this requires ... I believe it's an egg and a stick of butter..
Follow Betty Crocker's instructions to make your mix and then pour this out covering the whole bottom of your glass pan... I sprayed some Pam on the pan before.

Then...


Take your oreos and place them side by side covering the cookie mix in your pan, this is your second layer


and then...



Follow Betty's directions to make the brownie mix, I believe she wants 2 eggs and some vegetable oil for this one.

Once you have the mix ready spread this out on top of your oreos and cookie mix as your top layer


Heat your oven to 350

Place your pan in the oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes

Take out and cool and enjoy the amazingness!!!

Beautiful People

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.  These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.  Beautiful people do not just happen.
