Snazing Up Brownie Mix

I had a box of Fiber One individual brownies that I was taking in my lunches for work, and they were good, so when I ran out, I thought I would try and add some fiber to a box of brownie mix I had on hand. The results? Tasty.

1 box brownie mix that makes a 13x9inch pan
2 Tbsp carnation instant breakfast essentials mix
3 Tbsp whole psyllium husk
6 teaspoons (how many tablespoons is that, 2?) olivio coconut spread
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Walnuts (or other nuts if you prefer)

Mix everything but the walnuts, and pour in a greased 9x13 inch pan. Sprinkle as many walnuts on top as you want(I only put them on half). Bake at 350 for about 33 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean.

My notes on the recipe:
- the psyllium really wasn't obvious; I think next time I'd put in 5 or 6 tablespoons (and correspondingly more extra water to keep it moist)
- we also couldn't really taste the coconut oil spread, which I think is just fine. I think it helped keep them pleasantly moist too.

Organizing Craft Supplies

When it come to getting your crafting gear in order, there are some ideas that have made the rounds; keep pens and pencils in a can or cup, put tiny things in an empty egg carton or chocolate box, and thread spools of ribbon or trim on dowls. You can keep sheets of stickers and decorative paper neat in file folders, and keep larger numbers of beads or buttons in jars or lidded plastic containers. What I don't have a good storage solution for is yarn. As an avid knitter, I have a good-sized yarn stash. My current storage method has the yarn skiens and balls gathered by color in plastic grocery bags, and those sacks are gathered in a larger trash bag. Does it keep the yarn together? Yes, but I'd prefer a more elegant arrangement.
