The weekend again went way too fast. It started with bowling on Thursday night and continued with a night in on Friday, a busy but relaxing day Saturday that included couch shopping and Chipotle followed by more shopping Sunday. Now we are already at Monday morning with no couch and no weekend left. Bummer. The good news is that we got to share these tasty treats with the Sunday night dinner crew that came over for a pizza party last 
It’s been pouring all day. Not the best weather to get you in the Christmas spirit. It doesn’t stop me from thinking about what I need to make and buy for friends and family.

This is a recipe I adapted from Cooking Light. Peanut Butter 
Why would I ever make another cookie? These are the best treat I have in….as long as I can remember. They are soft and crunchy, sweet and slightly salty, nutty and fresh and overall delicious! If you have a dehydrator, make these now. I am not sure how they compare to the Queen of Macaroons, but I know they are amazing!
