You had to guess what candy bar was inside the diapers by smelling it.

Cookie pie? Yes please! This was so yummy. Ginger said the crust is a sugar cookie and then she topped it with cool whip, cream cheese, and sugar. Then topped it with fruit.

Today had been all about RELAXATION!!! I took a nap/watched Law and Order after the shower and then made dinner for Hubby and I. I received these Nature Pride Country White Bakery buns through Foodbuzz Tastemaster’s program. I knew that Hubby would love them, he loves LOVES white bread 🙂

There is actually a lot less sugar and more protein then I would have expected. The lack of Fiber is the reason that I stick to whole wheat breads. I made Hubby a regular burger on these buns and he said that he “liked them a lot”. He was actually excited they weren’t wheat buns. I would only buy these if we had company over,

It’s 9pm and I am about to pass out. I got ZERO hours of sleep last night!! I am going out for a 10 mile run at 5:30am and then off to work at 10am! This whole working on Sunday thing is going to throw me off!!! I need some Sunday “Monday” motivation 😉

Question: Do you work weekends? Have you ever?
