Brookie

The brookie Bill dismissed as “another small one” was 16 inches long, thick and weighed about two pounds.

We now have crookies, brookies, duffins, and cruffins, all mash-ups of familiar treats (cookies, tarts, brownies, doughnuts, croissants and muffins respectively).

They were not only combining doughnuts and muffins, but just about any other kind of food you could think of. There were piecakens (a pie baked inside a cake), brookies (brownie and cookie) and cherpumples (cherry, pumpkin and apple pie).

When you can’t decide between a cookie and a brownie, why not make both—in the same pan—for what we fondly refer to as the “brookie.”

And the few skirts which are past remaking are carefully cut down into small brookies for the young hopeful, who will get the last ounce of wear out of them.

[…] you cannot do a poopy in your brookie, […]

I notice, too, that the child is wearing red brookies [shorts].
