Remember when I was making sweet potato cookies the other day? Well, after experimenting with the recipe I realized they are more like a muffin top in consistency. I had my friends and family taste test & it was agreed – they are muffin tops – well, “Muffies” to be exact. I can’t reveal the recipe as of yet because…

My apologies and My Last Supper…
Two of my friends actually got mad because they believed Ben & I eloped! Sorry guys! April Fools! The picture was actually from when we got engaged.

No comment.
That is my thought on tonight’s eats. I came home and snacked and snacked and snacked while making dinner. By the time dinner was ready I wasn’t even hungry anymore. I ate some of it and went for a walk. Now I’m eating ice cream and making myself blog for accountability and honesty. I don’t need any encouragement, I just…

Hummus – the new dressing
It’s still Monday… and I’m still at work. I’m sad when I think about all you east coasters out there that are already home 🙁 But, I am barely getting to work when you are all eating lunch! Lunch : great salad topped with hummus. I love using hummus as dressing, but this one (I found at WF’s yesterday) is a…

So, I finally broke down and bought some of the infamous Barney Butter. I had resisted for months now despite the raves around the blog world. Ben wanted to go the Borders and there is a Whole Foods nearby, so I had a lot of time to just walk around and see all the very expensive and delicious goodies I…
