Happy December

When your sweet dog starts rapidly barking like a machine gun at 3:30 am while your husband is away on a business trip you start talking to Jesus - asking that your nine month old doesn't wake up, or that a giant lizard isn't roaming your living room. It was at least comforting that Tanner wasn't barking, that let me know that no one had broken in. Does anyone want a sweet dog for Christmas?

I eat a lot of chocolate. A lot. And these are worth the calories. A friend from Sunday School made them for a bonfire social. They were gone before I was able to try one, but everyone was talking about them so she graciously shared the recipe. I feel like I've done a good deed by sharing this recipe. Happy December.
