I’ve been on a cookie kick lately. Not completely on purpose either…they just happened to be everywhere I turned… So today, I’m asking you to make something else :

Fudge

Strawberries

& these last minute crafts!

It’s still 2010 – Sink your teeth into these sugar cushions of fudge…you won’t be disappointed. What are you waiting for? Diets start next year.

I always add chopped pecans (or whatever kind of nuts I can find) into my fudge, in my opinion – what is fudge without nuts?

I know, however, some of YOU don’t share the same thoughts. :) 

I was amazed at this fudge, it really sounds too simple to be true. It’s good.

Really, honestly. I hope you try it! It’s a dense, yet soft, creamy, mmm, melt in your mouth treat!

If you are feeling like you want something “lighter” – these strawberries are cute, delicious, and make for a great party snack. Who doesn’t like chocolate dipped strawberries!? 

Notice the theme today…quick, yet delicious.

want to feel less guilty?…

Hence the word “less”. There’s fruit involved = healthy.

Strawberries!
