I can be kind of a trainwreck sometimes. I don’t mean a lose-my-pencil or knock-over-my-milk trainwreck (although I can be those too). I mean a National Lampoon trainwreck.
Christmastime always reminds me of this fact, mostly because of something that happened a few years ago. My parents had decided to travel to South Korea for the holiday to visit my sister, who was living there at the time. I was sullen about having to spend Christmas alone, and on top of that, I had been appointed petsitter.
Magical, magical Magic Bars
Everything would have been okay if this position merely entailed taking care of my parents’ toy poodle, Abbey, who — while getting crotchety in her old age — is still a little scoop o’ sweetness. But no. Petsitting meant taking care of the dog, the finch, the very animated Roomba, and THE RABBIT.
THE RABBIT, y’all, who — I KID YOU NOT — eats two freshly made salads per day. I don’t even eat two freshly made salads per day! Or, uh, even one freshly made salad per day.
THE RABBIT, who snuggles and kisses everyone EXCEPT ME, because he hates my guts.
THE RABBIT, who attacks me whenever I’m within range.
THE RABBIT, who was THIS CLOSE to being turned into a stew and not making it out of the experience alive.
Don’t worry — no rabbit in the Magic Bars.
It was clear from the very beginning that this was going to be an interesting week, but I had no idea what kind of shenanigans were in store for me. I thought the worst of my troubles was THE RABBIT. Not even close. Because:
1. In the middle of one of my first nights at my parents’ house, I woke up to a waterfall raining down from the living room ceiling. There was apparently a leak in an upstairs bathroom. Over the next few days, what started as a tiny crack in the downstairs ceiling became a gaping hole.
2. The Roomba stopped working after a few days. It already required daily maintenance to manually clean out the gobs of bunny hair it had to consume, but halfway through the week, it gave up the ghost. I barely fiddled with it before giving up, which meant being buried in bunny fluff the rest of the week. It was EVERYWHERE. Covering every article of clothing, stuck in my eyelashes, garnishing every bite of food.
3. Abbey decided to start spontaneously bleeding from her head midweek, staining the couch and sheets. Still no idea what happened there.
4. Speaking of Abbey, she and Byrd (my toy poodle) were mortal enemies all week long. Byrd likes to pester Abbey. Abbey wishes Byrd would fall into a hole and get swallowed by the earth. This makes for interesting interactions, including what I like to call “the great potty war,” during which each dog was determined to out-pee the other.
5. That $#@*% RABBIT attacked me and almost broke my hand as I was cleaning up his gross cage. Apparently he’s territorial about his hay. Noted.
6. The bird died. IT JUST UP AND DIED. I promise I fed it, watered it, milleted it, cooed at it, kept the temperature steady. Mom later assured me that it was an old bird. At this point I kind of felt like telling her that she was an old bird. Just kidding, Mom. Love you!
7. The day had finally arrived when I was supposed to pick my parents up from the airport after school. Everything was going to be okay! I was on my way to work, gleeful at the prospect of leaving the demolished ceiling, bleeding dog, dead bird, and vicious Monty Pythonesque bunny behind — when I totaled my car. TOTALED. Some dude pulled out in front of me leaving me no room to stop, and bang! Cue the airbags, the traffic jam, the police report, etc.
All of this occurred without a reliable way of contacting my parents since they were, you know, across the globe and all. I picked them up from the airport that night in Mike’s car, and I’ll bet you can imagine how well that went: “Hi guys. Your ceiling’s destroyed, your bird is dead, your house is one giant furball, your dog may or may not still be bleeding, and I just totaled my car. How was your trip?”
Anyway, I can be a trainwreck of epic proportions. That’s why when I received a copy of Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook to review a few weeks ago and promptly failed at the first recipe I made from it, I knew I needed to give it another go.
My first try was the Lemon Wafers. They’re described as “cake like,” but mine were thin, crisp, and burnt around the edges. They still tasted amazing (I may or may not have eaten half a batch by myself), but they were quite the ugly ducklings. With no photographs of some of the recipes, it was hard to decide how they were supposed to look; nevertheless, I’m pretty sure they weren’t supposed to look like that.
I’m so glad I tried again, because the next recipe was a winner. Magic Bars consist of pecans, bittersweet chocolate, and coconut bound by sweetened condensed milk on a graham cracker crust. They were so simple and quick to make, but were definitely magical! I took them to a crafting party (I feel so hip to have gone to a crafting party – did you see how deftly I slid that tidbit into this post? Am I ruining it now? Oh.) and they were a huge hit.

Magic Bars
Recipe by: Kathleen King of Tate’s Bake Shop
Yield: 24 bars
Ingredients:
1/2 cup salted butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 1/3 cups dessicated shaved coconut (unsweetened)
1 1/2 cups bittersweet chocolate chunks (I use Ghirardelli)
1 1/4 cups pecans, chopped
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a 9 x 13 inch pan, mix the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs. Press the mixture evenly to cover the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle the coconut over the crumb base. Sprinkle the chocolate chunks over the coconut. Sprinkle the pecans over the chocolate chunks. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk evenly over the top. Bake it for 25 minutes. Cool it completely and cut it into bars. I like these magic bars served cold.

Hope the third attempt from the cookbook is a success, too! If only I could enter the give-away, but sadly location negates this. Good luck to everybody, though!

I love a million different kinds of cookies… favorite I’m thinking of at this moment: oatmeal white chocolate cranberry.
Lisa
December 22, 2010 at 2:06 pm (14 years ago)I LOVE Magic Bars (except I use walnuts in mine). They are so good with coffee. MMMMM. The last time I made them, I used peanut butter chips because I was too lazy to go to the store and they were good but nothing beats the original.
My favorite cookie is a hard one. I really like a good, old-fashioned sugar cookie but also like decadent rich cookies like the Caramel Delights/Samoas the Girl Scouts sell. Oh, and shortbread, can’t forget that!
I just love cookies. 😀

I mean with the dogfight, dead finch, and the bunny — ugh bunnies terrify me. Really. I mean they’re all twitchy and have ear funk weirdness. I’m glad you made it out alive.

I mean, not LOVE because damn you had one seriously hard week. But it was just so comical because I knew you obviously got through it all alive. By the skin of your teeth. But alive nonetheless. i guess when it rains it pours.
Magic bars – delicious. Yet another recipe to try from that cookbook. And my waist just keeps on expanding…

December 23, 2010 at 4:01 am (14 years ago)I must admit, I belong to a LOT of blogs. I visit them daily, and I must admit, sometimes they blur together. That’s NOT a bad thing because each one warms my heart and I log off with a smile on my face. Honestly, I must admit, with all the blogs I pour over, I get very confused, and that has nothing to do with me being a blonde. Also, I find myself saying the words, “I must admit” a LOT! Anyway, a few minutes ago, I was happily reading along — at a good clip and retaining EVERY word I read. During the week, I SKIP over the photos. HORRORS! I save those for weekend viewing, so I can take my time and savor them. I adore looking at photos — especially those that focus on food. Today, I just HAPPENED to linger over your photos. OMG! When my eyes scanned the photo of your Browned Butter Pumpkin Croquemcake with White Chocolate Chai Mousse I jumped out of my chair and FLEW around the room — with my arms flapping wildly. OMG! Sensory OVERLOAD! As soon as my mind could put 2 and 2 together, I was “over the moon. “YOU” are the creator of the most BEAUTIFUL confection in the world! The girl that I lost my heart to on “Project Food Blog!” The picture brought it all together for me. I rarely pay attention to names. I apologize, but I don’t. Julie, how did I NOT know, after reading your blog for a LONG time, that you are the person who inspired me to race out and purchase a Tasty-Fill Cake Pan, and hope against hope that I could duplicate your masterpiece with my own towering mass of snowballs and snowflakes that would evoke an avalanche of emotions in all who looked at it? I’m a dreamer. I haven’t taken the pans out of the box yet. 🙁 Someday I want Aunt Beaut’s Fried Chicken. It looks to sigh for!
Please enter me in the Tate’s giveaway! I’d LOVE to win and I PROMISE to open the box!
PS…I’m SO happy you didn’t make stew!
