100 Cal Chocofudge Brownies
by The Londoner
This recipe was passed onto me by my good friend M. Remember him? He's the devilishly handsome tennis player I dated for a little while.
While our love affair may not have lasted, our friendship thankfully has, which is great news for me but even better news for you because you get to be let in on the skinny brownie recipe!
When he first told me about 100 cal brownies I was sceptical to say the least.
They were going to be flavourless, dull and dry, right?
Oh I was so wrong.
You know I love a good brownie, but these are good. I mean really, really good. Like sit down & accidentally eat the entire pan good.
Their texture is a bit like eating slightly melted fudge & they pack a seriously chocolatey punch in the flavour department.
M's recipe comes out at exactly 100 calories per brownie, but I added chopped pecans to mine which raises them to 170… still ridiculously low for a brownie. Nuts are full of good fats that help your skin look fresh & your hair shiny. It's totally up to you if you include them, I like the texture & flavour but if you're a big calorie counter, leave 'em out.
Ok you'll need:
180g (3/4 cup) Low fat yogurt
60ml (1/4 cup) Skimmed milk (or almond/soy)
64g (1/2 cup) Cocoa powder
43g (1/2 cup) Wholegrain rolled oats
64g (1/2 cup) Truvia (or any natural/stevia based sweetener that pours like sugar)
1 free range egg
1 tsp Baking powder
Pinch of salt
150g Roughly chopped pecans (or nuts of your choice)
This recipe is even easier than a Betty Crocker box! Pre-heat your oven to 200°C/400°F & grease a small baking tray (about 8in x 8in) Throw everything except the nuts into a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into tray, scatter with nuts & bung it all into the oven for 20mins.
When they're totally cool, slice them up. The calorie count is based on cutting them into 9 chunky badboys.
I like my brownies ever so slightly undercooked & gooey in the middle, so took mine out a little early. If you wanted nice firm, uniform looking ones then leave them in for the full time. It'll make them much easier to pop in packed lunches too.
Quick, easy, utterly delicious & totally guilt free.

Detox Juice Tricolour
by The Londoner
You already know that I enjoy the naughty things in life; Champagne, chocolate, brownies, burgers, cheese... the list is endless. But I like to keep the balance when it comes to the healthy stuff. Fruit & veg cocktails are a really great way to do this. Detox juices aren't just for January, they're for life. Keep drinking these & you'll notice a remarkable difference in your health, skin, hair & nails. Even your eyes will sparkle a little brighter & you'll be one of those annoying people who never get sick.
Of course there are a bajillion (approx.) juice recipes out there, but these are my three favourites to get you going.
First, I'm afraid, you're going to have to invest in a juicer. Like all electronics, they vary hugely price wise. You can spend anything from £30 - £300. There are 3 main differences between the cheapies & the pricey ones. 1. How much juice & goodness you get from the fruit. The better the juicer, the more it will extract, the more nutrients you'll get & the less it will waste (meaning you'll spend less on ingredients). 2. Chopping & peeling. If you plump for a cheaper model, you're going to have to chop & peel your fruit and veg. Not a huge hardship, just a bit of a hassle. 3. Volume. Little juicers will make you a glass, a beast of a juicer will make you a jug! I've had lots in the past, but my battleship of choice is the 'Philips Advance Juicer' (usually £200 but £129 on Amazon).
It's big without been unsightly, I don't have to chop or peel anything, super easy to clean & hardly wastes any of the fruit at all.
If you want an extra kick up the backside, you're also going to need to take a trip to your local health food shop.
These three bad-ass little super heroes will supe up your juices & keep you in tip-top condition, whatever you get up to.
Grab a bag of:
Wheatgrass powder - detoxifies blood, improves reproductive health, aids weight loss, improves skin & muscle tone, lowers cholesterol, etc.
Spirulina powder - anti ageing, great for eyes/vision, seriously great for immune systems, detoxifies blood, etc.
& some Acidophilus capsules - unbelievably awesome for digestive health, helps with indigestion & IBS, lowers cholesterol, fights cancer, etc.
Ok, so my first recipe is the The Prince Harry:
2 carrots
2 apples
Third of a lemon (skin on)
Thumb sized chunk of ginger
1 capsule acidophilus
Ice
Juice everything, open up capsule, pour in powder, stir, pour over ice.
My second recipe is Godzilla Juice:
1/4 of a pineapple
2 sticks of celery
1/4 cucumber
1/2 lime
2 apples
1 heaped tsp wheatgrass powder
1 level tsp spirulina
1 capsule acidophilus
Ice
Juice everything, add your powders, stir the hell out of it, or mix/blend if you can.
Serve over ice.
Try not to destroy any Asian cities.
Ok, our final juice is the The Twilight Cooler.
2 apples
1 large raw beetroot
1 large carrot
1 orange
2 sticks celery
1 tsp wheatgrass powder
1 capsule acidophilus
Ice
Juice all the fruit, add your powders, mix thoroughly, serve over ice.
Good enough to satisfy any bloodthirsty, sparkly vampire.
If you want more juice recipes give The Funky Fresh Juice Book by Jason Vale a go. He should keep you going all year long. If you have your own killer detox recipes please share them in the comments, I'd love to give some a go!

Best of 2012
by Shaun Usher
Happy New Year!
2012 has been an incredible year for Letters of Note, with over 30 million visits to its 900+ letters. Of those featured in the past 12 months, the 15 most-read are as follows, beginning with the most popular:
1. To My Old Master
A stunning letter from an ex-slave to his former master which, when first featured on Letters of Note back in January, was read by millions of people in a matter of days.
2. Our differences unite us
A letter to Barack Obama from the young daughter of a gay couple, and the U.S. President's response.
3. Love, Dad
A wonderful letter of advice from Ronald Reagan to his soon-to-be-wed 26-year-old son.
4. What a world
Author Ken Kesey writes a remarkably touching letter to his closest friends following the tragic death of his 20-year-old son.
5. Part of this world, part of another
During production of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, Gene Wilder writes to the movie's director, Mel Stuart, and offers some feedback on Wonka's costume.
6. He is called Mick Jagger
18-year-old Keith Richards writes to his aunt after meeting Mick Jagger.
7. I am very real
A powerful letter from Kurt Vonnegut to the head of a school board who recently ordered copies of Slaughterhouse-Five to be burned.
8. Live like a mighty river
Beautiful advice from poet Ted Hughes to his son, Nicholas, on living life to its fullest.
9. Damn you all to hell
A typically charming letter from Tom Hanks in response to a request to appear on the Nerdist podcast.
10. Nothing good gets away
Author John Steinbeck writes to his son with some invaluable advice on love.
11. I like words
In my humble opinion the greatest job application letter ever penned, written by an aspiring screenwriter who later went on to win an Academy Award for his work.
12. Everything comes to an end
When author Stieg Larsson died in 2004, his partner found a letter in his belongings, "To be opened only after my death."
13. How could you go ahead of me?
A heartbroken 16th-century widow writes a moving letter to her recently deceased husband.
14. I shall always be with you
The night before her execution in 1950, Czech politician Milada Horáková writes a farewell letter to her daughter.
15. Love is love, and there will never be too much
A wonderful letter from Fiona Apple, on the subject of love.
I hope you've enjoyed them as much as I have. See you all in 2013.
