WHAT a crazy weekend I’ve had! As you all know, I’ve been in California for a family reunion. Really glad we came and as it turns out, I learned a few things while here:

1. There is horrible traffic here!! {And I thought Portland was bad! Yikes…}

2. My children are evil when they don’t get enough sleep. I love them and all, but seriously. I wanted to murder them after 9 pm.

3. There are members of my husband’s family that I just met for the first time this last weekend. And there are even more that I still have yet to meet. And this is just one side of his family! Did I mention I can’t remember half of their names? Oh, and lucky me–I get to do this all again with the other half of his family at the end of the month. #joy #kiddingbutnotreally #heavenhelpme

4. I sweat unprettily and have a lot of clothes that don’t hide sweat well.

5.  It’s muchos caliente in Paso Robles, California and surrounding areas. {Hence #4}

6. I love Costco cookies. I never ever buy them because if I did, I’m positive I would eat them ALL. But of course they had a million cookies at the reunion and I ‘sampled’ all of them. 17 times. Ya know, because I forgot if I liked them or not.

7. Aaaand, funny thing about cookies is now I want to eat them all the time. CURSE my wicked cravings for carbs!! I had a touch of the carb addiction during pregnancy, but now that I’m nursing my baby, it’s turned into a problem. I’m seriously one cupcake away from needing an intervention.

But pretty sure I won’t be having one until 2 pm today, so we’re good! Until then, please enjoy these Peanut Butter Toffee Cookies! They’re soft and chewy- just how cookies should be. Plus they’re super easy to make and nearly fail proof. If you’re a peanut butter fan, then you will absolutely LOVE these! Add in a little toffee bit action and you’ve got yourself a serious contender for world’s greatest cookie. –>it doesn’t take much to impress me. Peanut butter + sugar means I’m smitten. My husband is the same way. This is why we never argue, I’m 96% sure.Anyways, you should get around to making these little buddies REAL soon because you will lurve them! Enjoy 🙂
