cuz i counted them.

ok so believe me or not.

truth is, i don't post recipes too often but when i do, they are repeat offenders in my house.

so try this one, so you can join the jiggly fat thigh club with me and i won't feel so bad.

print recipe here.
they bake up like a brownie cupcake that isn't too rich so, if you want, you can add these:
pop some in your mouth while you make the frosting like this:
and so finally here goes my last desperate sales pitch to get you to make these puppies.
but don't let that convince you.

pencil stacker eraser pretzels

well guys,
summer's officially over around here. 

but it's not because our temps are in the 70's.
or that there are leaves falling from the trees.

our weather doesn't change too often around these parts.
so we go by season's according to what's happening in life or cuz it's a holiday. 

i know, it sounds nutty. 

anywho at this time of year, summer's over cuz school started. and i am back to work M-F. blah. 

i say that cuz i didn't get a chance to do some fun blogging for a bit cuz of work and i had a brain blog infarct and was wondering when i would get over it.

then i saw these and my blogger brain was at it again.














oh and before i forget, i got some chocolate candiquik too.

and so i trimmed and glued and giggled some more. 
cuz i ended up with this:



whadd'ya think about 'em?
here i'll let you meet them in person...







ok so i know they are so completely silly.
completey un-adult like. 

but they make me completely smile.

and i'm taking that to work with me.
:)
