I am not at all certain how my thirtieth birthday could possibly be next week. I mean, nothing about me feels thirty. Nothing at all, not one bit. But here it is, thirty, peeking at me from around the corner. And regardless of how I feel or don’t feel, thirty is just gonna happen. So what am I going to do about it?
Well, I’m going to run away to LA for nine days at the end of the week (see, I’m not much of a thirty year old).
But first, I’m going to host a giveaway for lots and lots of Just Good Chocolate goodies. Fifty dollars worth of top notch cocoa powder, brownie mix, hot cocoa, and chocolate nib/fruit/nut snack mixes could be yours. And the winner, the winner will be announced on my thirtieth birthday.
And just to give you an idea of how good Just Good brownies are… I made an entire batch this afternoon. I ate two. I left one out for Hansell, only because he’s moving to Austin today. And I froze the rest so that I can have a Just Good brownie whenever I darn well please. There’s minimal sharing going on here, folks, because Just Good brownies are just that good.
To enter, simply leave a comment below letting me know your favorite chocolate dessert between now and 8PM CST on Wednesday, May 8th. I’ll announce and contact the winner first thing on my birthday, May 9th!

Happy early birthday Kristin!! My favorite chocolate dessert is brownies. But I want a piece with edges, warm with a cold glass of milk. So make this happen Kristin! I need to win.

Happy Birthday. Age is just a number! And I’m pretty sure 30 is when you hit your prime, right between fearless 20-something and refined adulthood!
Favorite chocolate dessert…has to be a fresh out of the oven chocolate chip cookie!

All-time fave chocolate dessert?? Chocolate Mousse from Bern’s. I haven’t been able to forget its deliciousness since I was 12 years old.
Molly says
Yay…30! It’s not that bad (coming from a 32 year old). I actually love my 30’s…but I love brownies more, I think! My favorite dessert has to be a warm chocolate brownie with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top and some hot fudge dripping down. Throw some strawberries and whipped cream and I’m in heaven! Can’t wait to celebrate your big 3-0 when you’re back in Austin. xo
Jon says
Ummmm…. favorite chocolate dessert? My vote is going to Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. Sure, the “peanut butter” filling steals the show, but the balance with chocolate can’t be beat.
Chrissie says
I CAN’t BELIEVE IT’S ALREADY YOUR BIRTHDAY AGAIN! ENJOY!!!
Can double chocolate chip blondies be considered a chocolate dessert? Because I add so much chocolate I think they should be…
Tom Landry says
We call it YUM YUM – a whippey chocolate delite’
Billy says
Brownies all the way.
Amber Knight says
Right behind you on turning 30th. Sending birthday hugs and wishes your way! Favorite chocolate dessert… Does turtle cheesecake count? If so, that’s for sure mine! If not, I’ll go chocolate icecream w chocolate sprinkles.
Alexis says
(I think I may be too late 🙁 ) BUT I love all things chocolate so i could make real fine use of the goods !!
Cynthia says
I’m turning 40 on the 17th…I will hide with a bag of chips because I’m learning to eat more healthy. But on the 17th I will indulge because I’ve cut most everything disastrous to my health. My favorite chocolate yum yumminess is chocolate silk pie! I will have to get me one of those just to remind myself that chocolate makes everything happy 🙂 Happy 30th…enjoy because all of a sudden you are 40!
