Denver Brownies
These are sooooo good. I think these may rank as one of my favorite of Maida's numerous brownie recipes (my favorites are the Palm Beach Brownies and the Santa Fe Brownies ). Maida Heatter says she got the recipe at a television station in Denver and was told that Julia Child had raved about them. I can see why. 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/3 cup honey 2 tbsp. water or coffee 4 oz. (1 stick) unsalted butter, in pieces at room temperature 6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 eggs 1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) walnuts or pecans, cut into medium-sized pieces 2 tbsp. bourbon, brandy, or rum Preheat oven to 325. Line a 9-inch square pan with foil. Butter the foil and set aside. (Note: It is helpful to cut the foil large enough so that it drapes over the sides of the pan. This will make it easier to remove from the pan). Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. Place the honey, water or coffee, butter and choco
So many lovely wide shots, Phillip. This garden was truly special, and you captured it so well.

ReplyDeletePhillip, thank you for this tour! I love the plant combinations, textures, stone work and, of course, seeing familiar faces!
ReplyDeletePhillip, You did capture this garden beautifully...
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this garden, The Saint and I have decided we need to add more green to the garden and spend less time on color! Would make for less work in the long run. But takes time for the growth of greens and I like my instant gradification. There gardens were impressive...
ReplyDeleteSome really gorgeous shots, Phillip. Mine didn't come out nearly as well ): But I saw myself in the busy bloggers picture which was nice.
ReplyDeleteLooks lush and tranquil.
ReplyDeleteThanks for these pix, Phillip. Would love to go on one of these tours one day. Several bloggers from Texas that I visit went. So enjoyed these! Hugs, Carol
ReplyDeleteOh, my! What a gorgeous garden. Just today my husband and I were talking about terracing a particular part of our yard. I will have to show him your post for inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!
ReplyDeletePhillip what is the last tree? This is my kind of trip. Hope to make it some time.
ReplyDeleteFabulous pictures Phillip! Your photos show the depth of the garden. What a wonderful place. Love the picture of the busy bloggers, very cute.
ReplyDeleteThis was my favorite too Phillip. I think the textures, various hues of green and the showy blooms as exclamation points were the perfect combination. Great presentation of the garden. I hope Michael has recovered.
ReplyDeleteI think I may agree with Michael on the height thing. The kitty would be a she since she appears to be a tortoiseshell. Great article and fantastic pics.
ReplyDeletePhillip, I remember commenting on the tripod you carried to the various gardens. Now I know the reason! Wonderful photography and summaries.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tour. What a wonderful garden.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots; beautiful garden. So happy I got to meet you and Michael!
ReplyDeleteYou captured the garden beautifully. Loved the tour!
ReplyDeleteI really wish I had been able to attend. I've seen this garden featured on a few blogs and it's so gorgeous!! Excellent photos! I wish I'd been there!
ReplyDeleteYou have been very busy since the fling writing about the gardens. I haven't even had time to download my photos (I am a little afraid that there are so many that my computer might crash). Gorgeous photos. Carolyn
ReplyDeleteMy goodness! Wasn't it lovely. I especially like seeing it through your lens Phillip. I didn't realize Michael has a thing about heights. I do too btw.~~Dee
