Harvest Modern Country Kitchen - Gooey Brownie Bowl
A pool of perfectly melted mallows cascading over an elegant bowl of beautifully crafted brownie: This is the cream of the crop at Harvest Restaurant in Greeley, Colorado. Nestled appropriately under a mound of wholesome vanilla ice cream, this delightful dessert simmers in anticipation of every tempted mouth. Digging in just in time, as the generous scoop of ice cream begins to surrender to the brownie’s radiant heat, four eager spoons finally harvested its warm, gentle core. One draw back, if any, was that mouths were plenty. At first inclination, the brownie is a fair size, however, the white, whipped décor served somewhat as a disguise, and this humble brownie is not fit for four. Highlighted Quality: Melted Marshmallow

Brownie Dialectics
As critical brownie enthusiasts and scholars in the discipline of communication, after much deliberation – hey, we’re comm students – we have decided to follow a communication tradition and rate these delectable delicacies using a dialectical tension spectrum. As you can see, on one side you have a tension (i.e. hot) and on the other you have another opposing tension (i.e. cold) and somewhere in the middle you would hope to find your ideal description. We believe that communication studies can enhance every aspect of your life, including, yes, dessert. We hope you enjoy!
Dialectical Tensions:
Hot or Cold – Warmth
Overwhelming or Plain – Brownie Décor
Crowded or Complementary – Brownie Favors
Massive or Miniscule – Brownie Bulk
Starving or Sedated – Brownie Bias (as is with any scholarly endeavor, there is some bias, ours, limited thought it may be, is our physical state of being prior to partaking in the experience)
Satisfying or Longing-for-more – Brownie Depth (was this merely a romantic fling, or did this brownie offer lasting satisfaction)
Exceptional or Dreadful – Brownie Significance
Yours Truly,
