Days 71, 72 & 73

Thurs., Oct.17
Cheat Day
*Started my day off with a cup of coffee with regular creamer.  J bought a bottle of Coffee-mate's new Brown Sugar Maple Latte.  I had thought it was going to taste more maple-like and found it was not as great as I'd expected.  Still good, but not great.  Geesh, I'm hard to please.  Ask J.  I also made a batch of cookies last night and had a few with my coffee for breakfast.  I knew I'd want to cheat today (though yesterday almost broke me when I had served a yummy spaghetti lunch at school...) and I like homemade goodies so much better than store bought or even our school's cookies (which are huge and great... did I mention that they are huge, too?).  But I also didn't want them hanging around too long to tempt me further.  So I froze a dozen for Christmas and I packed some up to bring to the two maintenance guys at work and some for my co-workers to have with coffee today.  With my cookie loving son and Dad around here, they won't last long at all.  I used this recipe here, but instead of nuts I added dark chocolate chips and toasted coconut (that I dry fried in a non-stick pan to toast).  Yummy, yummy, yummy.
