Made tonight: Brother Alton's granola bar recipe with the part of the "dried fruit" component played by 2 ounces toasted coconut, 2½ ounces semisweet chocolate chips, and 2½ ounces dried cherries.
I was hoping the chocolate chips would maintain some degree of structural integrity but they melted immediately on contact with the hot toasted grain/nut mix. The gooey mass of delight is now cooling. I'm not sure what the end result will be... other than tasty.
Also, we made fresh limeade for the first time ever. OMFG. I have a new respect for the amount of work required to juice enough limes for key lime pie.
