Parlez-Vous Francais (PS Happy Friday!)

Oui, Je parle Francais. Sorta.

I haven’t used my French very much since college, soooo, ya know.  It is what is is.  This past week at work I took Nutella and Crepes in for our Mardi Gras party (Hence, the French chit chat).  After I did this, I realized it was a huge mistake, because I ended up at home with a nearly full jar of Nutella.  Or as I like to call it, crack.

Once I found myself taking 3 spoonfuls in one night our of the jar, I knew I needed help.  Yes, I have failed miserable at my sugar challenge, but Mardi Gras and Valentine’s Day in one week is really rough.  Oh well.

My friend Natalie has this amazing recipe and I decided it would be best to make these cookies and share the crack love with everyone else.  I made them for Johnny to pack in his lunch yesterday and brought all the leftovers into work.

You guys, they were gone before 11am.  Seriously.  They are dangerous, but delicious.  Natalie is a genius!  My thighs already hate me.  Just makes these cookies, mmk?

How was your day of lovin?  Johnny made me a delicious dinner of lobster tail, shrimp, mashed potatoes and asparagus.  He also surprised me with tulips and by making a few dozen chocolate covered strawberries!  What a guy ;)   We enjoyed some wine on the couch after.

Chillin’ with my two little valentines is the perfect Valentine’s Day to me <3


UPDATES:

  • Besides my sugar flop, my fried foods challenge is going great! (with the exception of a few fries that made their way into a salad the other night while we were out)
  • I’ve got 6 class in towards my 20 in 30.  My hips hurt. My things hurt. My abs hurt. That is all.
  • My friends are still plugging away with their fundraising. Please help/share/link if you can. :)

A really random post today, but that’s all I got.  Hope you are a great weekend!  I will be enjoying mine detoxing from this sugar/chocolate/cookie hangover.

    Keep up the great work on your fried foods and Barre challenge! Kicking sugar is a hard one! But hey, everything in moderation!

    Happy Friday! I need to start getting into that wine and music habit when baking! Johnny’s dinner is beautiful!
