It would all depend on who I was sharing the class with, for otherwise I am not too fond of oven baked brownies... Though going to the beach to pick out a sun baked brownie might be fun!!!! I always did have a thing for brownies from brazil and the phillipines!! :hypocrite:
Will the real Brownie Bandit please stand up?
I believe she IS standing. Short people appear to be sitting even when they're standing. :lol:

The only bachelorette that is full is the brownie bandit. ;)
:laughhard: PF
Jonathan: The degree that the bachelorette earns will make sure that certain bachelor(s) are FULL!! lol Thus, it is called a "full bachelors" degree.
Yoop: it's okay. I happen to have written a "Dear John" note of my own today. :bigcheese:

And the good folks here at GP... I think they want to know where John is during all this letter writing... :laughhard:
Good point Rainbow. Ok, a Full Bachelor degree works.
However, a warning to the wise, get too good a grade at the Full Bachelor degree could result in a MRS degree. Well if they are some really good brownies. LOL :laughhard:
It wasn't brownies that worked to nab my pirate. *cheeky grin* It was Butter Brickle bars. And a batch that didn't turn out so well, at that. *lol*
:beret:
:o
You mean the right brownies could earn a bachelorette an honorary MRS degree??
What if she sends more than one care package to more than one bachelor?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :o
That could end up kinda scary!

How do you feel about if someone were to mail themselves in a suitcase to your door...?

Well I do not know many ladies that could do that, but that would be an interesting package to receive. Nothing I am concerned would happen, but that could leave a guy a little startled. LOL

Godwin's Law, slightly modified: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Obama approaches 1 (100%)."
This thread brought back a flash of many great memories shared with a good friend. It also makes me extremely sad tonight. I will cherish every conversation we had and the hilarious moments we shared Yoop. I will never understand God's timing and I don't think I am suppose to anymore. I thought this would be a fitting place to say goodbye because I know how much you enjoyed this thread. I will miss you greatly brother. I am so thankful we were able to meet face to face. My heart is heavy/happy knowing our next meeting will take place on streets of gold.

As an original Founding Bachelor, and taking into consideration a conversation I had with my partner in this "Ministry" not long before his promotion to glory, I would like to announce the passing of the torch. Thomas and I discussed how we should step down from running this "ministry" after we were both married. We decided we would pass control over to two individuals that could insure this great organization carried on long into the future. Therefore I would like to announce the two new bachelors in charge are Newsman and Cheese!! As Thomas put it "Either this will get them married or keep Feed the Bachelors going for years into the future." lol
I wish Thomas could be here to make this announcement, but I am sure he is in a better place. With great memories of a great friend I turn control of Feed the Bachelors over to these new men. I charge them to use it wisely, and try and get as many laughs and sweets out of it as Thomas and I did. lol
I apologize that I just read this.
I'm honored.
So, any Lady that would like to Feed The Bachelors, as in Seth and I, are free to do so. Mailing address available by PM If you have anything with rotten carrots in it, causes ones' guts to have trouble, or requires an ALN after consuming it, please send to Seth.
Everything tasty should go to me! :thumbsup2:
John :waving:
From what I hear, you are working on a special lady to feed a particular bachelor!
:freaky2: :laughhard:
did someone say food!!?!?!?! :great:
I just now read this, cause I noticed lojack posted in the thread last and had to come and see what caused that grand appearance.
Well, I'm keeping my former bachelor well-fed. Has anyone begun feeding the other bachelors?
I'm a bachelor, but I make all the things on the list of foods with which to feed bachelors, so I have not as yet submitted my name for membership.
By the way, anyone want some cookies?
Me!
:marry:
Anyone care for my brownie recipe? :bigcheese:

Good point Rainbow. Ok, a Full Bachelor degree works.
However, a warning to the wise, get too good a grade at the Full Bachelor degree could result in a MRS degree. Well if they are some really good brownies. LOL :laughhard:

Jonathan: The degree that the bachelorette earns will make sure that certain bachelor(s) are FULL!! lol Thus, it is called a "full bachelors" degree.
Yoop: it's okay. I happen to have written a "Dear John" note of my own today. :bigcheese:
Actually, in all seriousness I need a good brownie recipe. If you don't mind.
Chocolate brownie? Butterscotch brownie? What kind do you like? 'Cause I'm thinkin' Elona could help with several recipes. :)
:beret:

Me!
I'm thinking this is the correct order of posts... Isaac just got in the middle inadverdantly. :laughhard:
So, Sunlight- care to enlighten us? Is it Cheesehead? Or the mediapersonage? Or an as-yet unmet by us, FB? :biglaugh:
Yes. :grin:

You're gonna hate me, Isaac, but here's the brownie recipe that won me a Taco. :-)
1. Go to the store.
2. Buy one Ghirardhelli brownie mix (the one with meltaway chips)
3. Buy one Betty Crocker fudge brownie mix
(if you're in the mood, buy a pack of mini chocolate chips to add for fun)
4. Take the mixes and chips home.
5. Follow the directions on the box for each of them, combining them in one bowl, and cooking the way that looks best on the back of the box.
6. Don't let them get TOO done.
7. Don't eat them all at once.
8. Ignore the brownie bandit.
I was kinda hoping for something homemade...
Speaking of homemade... I came home from work and was looking for one last chess bar in the freezer for a late night snack, and found two apple bread cupcakes instead. And they were still good!
lol I figured you were. That's why I said you were going to hate me. :-)
I used to make brownies from scratch once in awhile, but I don't have my good cookbook here.
Chel has a good brownie recipe.
But how do you track down Chel to get the recipe?
"How do you catch a cloud and pin it down... how do you keep a wave upon the sand... how do you hold a moonbeam in your hand..."
I just saw a picture on FB. Cookie dough in a muffin pan, Reese's PB cup on top, and topped off with brownie batter. Oh yeah...
:sing: How do you solve a problem like a Chelbert?...." :sing:
;)
:beret:
:grin: I blessed you for that.
*curtsies* Thank you, dearie. *grin*

Sprang? As in a springform pan? :D No thanks, I already have cheesecake recipes.
Where's the fun in that??

On behalf of my F.B.I. Fellow Bachelor In Tennessee :hypocrite:
John :waving:
Your fellow bachelor has nothing at all happening in his personal social life. Go dig up dirt elsewhere. Sorry to disappoint you.
Be well, my friend. I know you borderline vehemently dislike the word twisting and observations we used to make all the time here about singles.
John :waving:
Rereading my last post, in context with past comments I have made, I find that sounds a bit more terse than I intended. My apologies. I didn't mean it as a brush-off.
What I did mean was you would find a lot more excitement if you dug around in my music, food or church life. I have a rather interesting life that is constantly changing and usually surprising me, but my social life is nonexistent. I don't really miss it though, as one cannot truly miss what one has never had. I've never even been on a date before.
However it seems facts are irrelevant when investigating rumors... so dig away. I'll be interested to see what kind of social life y'all dig up. :popcorn: It has to be more interesting than my real social life. :biglaugh:
Hmmm... Perhaps we could begin the saga of Psalm's social life and make up a fascinating saga for him...? :bigcheese:

* Ponders what level to which I can put my fabricating and writing skills to best use......... :freaky2:
uh oh...
i think i've finally scored a doozy. I was eating at one of my favorite restaurants (Indian) last Sunday and i was talking with one of the co-owners about seeing if they'd possibly offer cooking classes for $200-$300 range. His eyes lit up and he told me that he'd teach me for free! So, in the very near future, i'll be heading on over to learn some of my favorites, ie Butter Chicken, Chicken Biryani, Beef Vindaloo and much more!! The recipes I learn will be put into a book for any single ladies who might want to fix me supper!

To quote a Chris Rice song, "Start with an infant world, in an open sky, on a perfect day..."
Just start at the beginning and the story will write itself as you write it.
Um... *crickets*
Writer's block?
Isaac, are you interested in your new life story or something?
Yeah, I'm waiting to see what they come up with. It's the closest I've ever been to having a social life... and they leave me hanging? Really? :-\
:headrub:
Are you kidding?! After you already let it be known that you despise it when we make up tales about GPers? Hmph. *throws a dirty sock at Isaac for being so inconsistent* :P
:beret:
Making up tales I am accustomed to (I teach children's church Sunday nights.) :P The deliberate misquoting is what I found somewhat disconcerting, as it made it look like I was saying something I didn't say. Understood it is all in fun, but it still makes me leery.
Let the tale making begin!
And for the record, the only dirty socks I deal with are dress socks, and that is only because I don't want a slice of white ankle showing between my black dress pants and black leather toe shoes. And I had to pay a bit for black toe socks. Normally I don't wear socks with my shoes - they're made for not wearing socks.
*Psalm_97 throws the dirty sock back, and follows up with a veritable blizzard of outdated, useless, probably nonfunctional computer bits and pieces he has accumulated through the years.*

:freaky2: :freaky2: So....It's fair game to say Isaac DID something, but not SAID something. :freaky2: :freaky2: I LIKE this..... :laughhard: Not that I would ever abuse this knowledge, of course. :hypocrite:
Go for it dude. :popcorn:

:pound: You are trying reverse psychology. Sadly, it is working. It don't seem near as fun to torment you with your permission. :laughhard:
In the words of a certain fat, orange cartoon cat, reverse reverse psychology. I was serious, and I was waiting to see what my new social life was like.
Once upon a time there was a little bald baby. He liked to count his toes. As a matter of fact, it entered into his head at a very young age that he NEVER wanted to cover them up. It was so much fun to count them and play that piggy-to-market game that he was sad when it came time to put on shoes.
How's that for a start? :bigcheese:
:pound: RainbowJingles
Leave my shoes out of this. :P
But you said to start at the BEGINNING!!!??
:biglaugh:
:beret:
:listen:
hmmm.....
love at first sight... a light bright...
preferring bread dough to play dough...
starting out as gopher boy for the sound guys...
being mistaken for Sherlock Holmes...
Somehow Isaac's tenacity needs to be articulated... force feeding women fine chocolate...
Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing. -William James
I caught all of them except the first one and the Sherlock Holmes one. What was love at first sight and when was I mistaken for Sherlock?
just stuff to make up in your story.
light bright being your first love since you like computers...
sherlock from your new capes coats.
idk, just throwing stuff out there for the writers... hehehe
Ah, I get it. Carry on then.
Actually I have... well, had a pic of someone modeling the tan cape and striking a deliberately Sherlock pose. I deleted it because said person is reported as being embarrassed about the pic being taken, which I can fully understand.

I do hope Newsman sees this post. I really didn't mean to brush him off. Where is he anyway? I was looking forward to the tales he'd spin.
I have decided I need a translator. Or maybe an interpretor. Someone who can take what I mean and put it in words that mean what I want to say, and that will not be seen by everyone else as something besides what I mean. Sometimes I use words that mean one thing to me, because I know what they're supposed to mean, but when other people who don't know what I'm thinking read them they seem to mean something else. Life would be so much better if we could communicate telepathically.
The only time I don't have this problem is when I'm preaching or teaching Children's Church. For some reason I say exactly what I intended to say then. Go figure.
