I must be honest
here, this post was supposed to be Nutella Peanut Butter Cookies. But you see,
I came home sorta late this week and lazily looked up a recipe to use. Then I
took out everything I needed, did laundry, got my pjs on and headed back to the
kitchen….for dinner. I realized while assembling dinner that that was just as “bloggable”
as the cookies were and ditched the cookie idea. The sandwich was ooey, gooey,
is-this-really-healthy, delicious!
So do I wish I had some cookies
to be eating now? Yes, of course! But in the end, dinner was quite enjoyable, the mess was nothing compared to what cookies would have done to the kitchen, and I now have some weekend baking plans:) Enjoy...
