bestie cookies

jenni has been working hard to create the ultimate brown sugar cookie for me. she worked so hard that now she is on a sugar fast! she had too many cookie samples. i didn't even know that was a thing that could happen. anyway, she came up with a pretty delicious recipe and i tried it out last night when kate and zac were over. we all agreed that it was a success. i even made some with actual chocolate chips, but matt said they were tainted and really preferred them in their pure form. so... from jenni's kitchen and double tested through mine, here is her blog post and recipe. enjoy, i know you will.

matt and i really like chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips in them... brown sugar cookies, i think they are called or they should be called. so lately i have been making a ton of brown sugar cookies, looking for the perfect recipe. the hard part is, is that it is very difficult to compare cookies when you aren't sampling them at the same time. we will probably be sampling new recipes for the rest of our lives. i just tried a new recipe that i found on this foodie blog... 

words to eat by 

the lady that writes it is pretty funny (sometimes a potty mouth though!) and really informative and she tells you how to make all the meals into baby food, if you are into that. she also has a cookbook coming out in january with tips for parents on cooking. so... i recommend you check her out. or not. it's up to you really. 

oh, and here is the chocolate chip cookie recipe... also, if you have a good chocolate chip cookie recipe... i want to hear about it! i really do.

deep fried candy bars

the title says it all really. i don't know when we took a turn into healthy town, but here we are. we also tried to deep fry pickles and they turned out pretty disgusting... i think the batter was wrong. also, matt made some funnel cake!

mmm... why are deep fried things so good?!

wondering where b was while we ate our oh so healthy snacks? oh, just bouncing in the bathroom doorway of course. he likes to face the toilet for some reason. his auntie went to see him for awhile so he wouldn't get bored and after we were done with the hot oil, we got him out and let him have seven deep fried oreos. we think it was the perfect first food. 

are you wishing you knew how to make deep fried candy bars? of course you are... you're not crazy. here is a link to the recipe we used from 5 ingredient fix. as a side note... don't try butterfinger, the crispity crunchity part gets really hard and weird.
