What I'm Reading This Week #23
Hello there! We made it to Friday. Halleluyer! Did anyone else get that collection of butt hot days earlier in the week? No thanks. Oh yeah, you know what's fun? When you're watering your plants and you're wondering why mushrooms are starting to grow in planters and you check the bottom and realize the reason you got a great deal is because there are no drainage holes. 😤 So I had to tip the planters and drill one big one not only in the 4 smaller ones, which was hard enough but also the two big 16" ones holding the clematises. Nothing like drowning your plants for 3 weeks. I mean for real, who sells those? I've never in my life bought planters that didn't have drainage holes. So there's a tip for you to make sure you check your planter bottoms before planting anything.

I can vouch for these. They are delicious and make a great snack. I keep mine in my lunch cooler with everything else and typically wait until about 2 PM for that extra little boost in the afternoon time when everyone else starts circling the vending machines at work.

If I had tried to create something like this I would have used waaaaay to much cocoa/sweetener. This definitely looks like something I could make and portion and leave at school for after school snacks some days.

ReplyDeleteYum! I've had cocoa ones and I've had bold spicy ones and I like them both. What I cannot eat is plain old almonds with nothing on them. I attempted to do this a few weeks ago and I gagged through it. I did buy some raspberry ones, but have not had the courage to try them yet. I'm not a "nut" fan for the most part, but am trying to branch out and eat them because I know there are health benefits. I like this recipe a lot -- into my SATW recipe file it goes! =o)
