During the time I was off LJ, I kept finding myself storing anecdotes for entries. I remember one of them:

The boys and I went to Marianne's Ice Cream in Santa Cruz. One of the flavors was "Alice B. Toklas Chocolate Brownie." I commented to the young man behind the counter, who looked all of nineteen, "Love the name." He replied, without missing a beat, "Unfortunately, all we have is the name -- we don't have the recipe."

I just love knowledgeable sales people.

You make incredible brownies, yourself! Albeit lacking access to certain ingredients above ;-).

Don't ask, don't tell recipe? Perhaps they really followed her recipe...

I'll take a pint or two. :D
