Word Problem 101

My friend, "Shemily", makes a delicious 9x13 pan of chocolate orange brownies.  If she takes a 2 inch squared bite 8 times a day, how many days will it last?

I dunno, but this "Shemily" sounds like my kind of friend!

One day. As delicious as they sound, I think you are lying about only having 8 bites/day. Just a guess...

twice as many as than if her friend shmrittany were visiting.

please tell shemily that it would be nice if she let you put that recipe on your blog. I know someone *ehem* who would like to try it.

Stay-at-home dads like me are shameless. Give me the recipe and I will eat an entire pan in one sitting with half a gallon of whole milk.

Yes, I do think the real problem is mentioning a delicious dessert and NOT posting a recipe.

I could really go for a Chocolate Orange right about now.

Bites shmites, Shemily!
Just sit down with a spatula and finish her off!

Someone needs to check me, but I think it will last 7.3125 days. Of course, if Shemily shares with your brother, we could cut that down to 0.33 days easy.

One hour, because let's face it, who could really only eat one a day? Get real!

PS: I think everyone is on to you.

Recipe, please? Are these like the mint brownies, but with and orange layer instead. I _ Must _ Have _ Some. NOW.

Wow that sounds so good.

And they say you'll never need math skills in real life. I vote that once shemily's kids come home from school the rate of brownie eating increases exponentially, and they are gone in 0.25 days. (at Schmarlotte's house the answer would be 0.0001 days. I saw what her kids did to a pan of corn bread just yesterday).

Share them with me and they'll be gone in half the time!
