Coffee Mocha

Wow, it's been a long time since I posted. Be assured that my life has been filled with Chocolate in the meantime. I actually DID NOT get chocolate out on my birthday, horrors. But I had a good sized stash at home, so it wasn't so bad. [Can you imagine a restaurant NOT having chocolate?] Well, to be honest they DID have a chocolate dish, but it was HAZELNUT, ewwww. So I declined out of principle. [Besides, remember that stash?]

Lately, I've taken to drinking coffee. Candy coffee, of course- almost always with chocolate syrup in it, or some chocolate creamer concoction. I discovered that even with creamer its very little calories* - compared to eating meals, and one cup can last half the day. Nah, it hasn't helped any yet. . . [*not to be confused with a 1000 calorie venti] But I'm still hoping.

My daughter discovered a recipe for peanut butter cup cookies, which when presented with said PB cups, made them for me. They are good and a nice novelty if you need a cookie other than choc. chip, but I doubt I would go through the work, eating PB cups just like they are is satisfying enough, don't you think?
