Chocolate fix fixed

I found myself eating straight out of a bag of chocolate chips last night, so I decided to make something with the chocolate in an attempt to eat less of it. After a quick cookbook scan, I chose Puppy Chow. I don't think I have made the stuff since Tyler and I have been married! The kids thoroughly enjoyed it and P. proceeded to liquefy her portion. What does liquefied Puppy Chow look like? Glad you asked. Glad you asked.


This picture hardly does it justice. Perhaps I should have taken a full-body shot. She somehow managed to suck all of the sweet coating off of the Chex and then deposited the soggy Chex onto her legs. As I was cleaning her up, most of the Chex fell onto the floor where the dog was eagerly awaiting a treat. He turned up his nose at it. What a picky dog! (I will have to add soggy Chex to the list of foods he doesn't eat, including Cheerios--perhaps he has a distaste for cereal?--any fruit, jello, and green vegetables.) So there I was, wiping down the floor of soggy Chex as P. gleefully ran from the room on her newly acquired sugar high. Perhaps eating straight from the chocolate chip bag is the better late-night option.
