cookies!

 haha busted in action, sneaking cookies from the counter

 she loves them!

there they are!

i made a HUGE batch of these "cookies" the other day. they are SO good. i am always on the look out for healthy treats. i discovered this joyful little cookie, made some changes and voila! its a healthy cookie!

so easy to make!  i tossed in and tasted as i went along until it got to the right flavour....

-2 cups of oats
-peanut butter to taste
- i cut up some lindor chocolate and sprinkled them in ;)
-flax seed
-chia seeds
-grounded flax
-whole grain mix
-barley
-raisins
-nuts that i had on hand....peanuts, pumpkin, walnuts, hazel and almonds
-splash of vanilla
-4 bananas 

then i mixed them till they were stuck together, baked them for 15 mins at 325 until they were soft and chewy

SO good.  i froze them for a quick snack, breaky or on the go treat and no one knows they are a power house of health! no sugar, milk, daily, butter, oils!  wheeeeee

so i totally redeemed my time this week with nate gone. i go everything on my to do wish list DONE!  i deep cleaned* the house

*deep clean definition that chirs makes fun of!  hahaha he never heard of the phrase deep clean until he married me!
deep clean- go through the house room by room and clean every bit of it.  from wiping the baseboards, to going on your knees to scrub the corners.  wipe walls, sockets, windows etc....  my house is clean! 

but not really, a bird crapped on my back window AFTER i cleaned it. grumble! 

them i hit the storage room and purged and purged and purged....i have 1 more bag to go through and its DONE!  i think i over did it yesterday, i was so sore i couldn't move! 

last night funny, around 10:30 i was craving a bowl of cereal.  then i realised we didn't have any milk. i burst into tears over this!  i called chris crying because we had no milk.....he laughed and laughed and picked up some so i could have my bowl of cereal....i want to be clear about this. i DID NOT manipulate or ask, or cry to him to get get me some and use pregnancy as an excuse! i have never done that and never will. i loathe ladies who do that to their men.  pregnancy sure is not fun at times but guiltily your partner into getting you something is stupid and immature. if i wanted chris to go get milk, i would have come out and asked him!  chris was grabbing a sub and went into sobeys, because he wanted to! awwwww

so there ya go!  1 more day till the house is loud, filled with laughter and lots and lots of messes to clean up after.  i wouldn't trade it for anything!
