First things first…
Tomorrow is the big day! Head on over to The Chic Life and pick out a sweet treat to bid on. The online bake sale runs tomorrow (Wed, Jan-27th) from 12:01am to 11:59pm ET and there a literally dozens of items to chose from. All proceeds are going to the American Red Cross Haitian Relief efforts. I know you can all spare a few bucks to help out, and in return a fabulous blogger will send you some yummy homemade baked goods.
If you really want to make my day, make a big bid for a batch of my Mayan Chocolate Sparklers. They won’t disappoint, I promise!!
(Diana is going to have an actual bid page, hopefully along with a plug-in to track all of the bids…poor girl is burning the midnight oil trying to get everything ready. update: Ready to rock!! Get bidding!!)

And back to our regularly scheduled programming…
After all my big talk about morning workouts, the early mornings caught up with me a bit this afternoon. Around 3pm I could feel myself waning, so I filled up my water cup and poured a 1/2 serving of peanut butter pretzels.
Must be going around…Ali wrote about the same problem today.
In fact, I managed to eat an unpictured Coconut Dark Chocolate Kashi bar after picking FH up. It’s my own fault, I haven’t been drinking near enough water…and when I get thirsty I crave carbs. Figure that one out!
Come dinner time it was back to the bigass tray of lasagna. I baked up a half serving in the oven…
And steamed up a giant side of veggies…asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower.
For dessert I pulled out the bag of previously frozen Mayan Chocolate Sparkler balls I had stashed away at Christmas time. All this talk about cookies for the bake sale reminded me that I hadn’t cooked these off at New Years.
I dangerously discovered that these frozen balls of goodness don’t actually require baking to be enjoyed. uh-oh!
I ate a frozen dough ball and it was deeeeeeelish. DANGER!!
Whoever bids on these babies is one lucky person. If I do say so myself. :)
I may have just licked my screen.
ReplyDeleteI don't see why not. Donations will likely be US dollars though...depending on how she sets it up.
ReplyDeleteI am LOL-ing about the cookies not needing to be baked to be good.
ReplyDeleteI have the bake sale in my calendar that's how excited I am!
Oh YUM! I would eat those cookie batter balls on their OWN for sure! I'm a sucker for cookie batter!!
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea to raise some funds!
