I was exhausted by noon today but felt better immediately after I discovered a stock of thin mints in the freezer. I powered through the rest of the afternoon by munching on those bites of heaven and blasting music in my ears. I may feel silly singing to Katy Perry, but sometimes a good jam session with cookies is all you need.
Typically every year I tell myself that I won’t buy girl scout cookies simply because I know the damage they can do …but then again, how could I not buy them? That would be rude, especially as an ex-girl scout! I’ll also admit that they are just delicious and that sometimes in life you have to do things you don’t want to do. I feel obligated to buy and eat those damn cookies!
I’ve been doing a lot of things that I haven’t been necessarily wanting to do lately. While it’s true that I never follow the crowd, sometimes it’s easy to think that some choices I’ve made may have been mistakes. But do I have regrets? No way! Trying new things can be adventurous, and living through experiences always makes you better. I’m still trying to live through my experience of eating way too many cookies though. I’ll know better next time …I hope.
Even I’m a huge cookie lover, I sort of have this obsession with graham crackers. I love spreading them with peanut butter for a late night snack. This past weekend I was grocery shopping for a couple hours (yes, that’s normal) when I discovered Biscoff cookie spread. Totally amazing! I love it! Usually the only time I have Biscoff cookies is when I’m flying on a Delta airline. However, once I found them in a convenience store and made a pie crust with Biscoff cookies. I loved that pie crust from the bottom of my heart.
If girl scouts sold these chocolate Biscoff graham candy bars, I’d buy them and then inhale them. Again.
Seriously, these are easy to make! Only four ingredients!
Graham crackers and Biscoff spread …covered with chocolate.
Comfort coming your way!
