Hmmmmm.. How are White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies WAISTLINE FRIENDLY??? They are if you eat them in moderation 🙂 Plus using organic quality ingredients help out as well. Lets face it, sometimes you just want a cookie! I like to eat highly nutritious food so if I’m going to splurge on a dessert other than fruit I am going to make sure its worth it!! I have no guilt on tossing something that doesn’t hit the spot right. I will be honest, I just had knee surgery the other day and I’m feeling kinda sorry for myself so I was completely delighted when Miko made her “Make you feel better cookies” for me 🙂
I’m listening to My Moon My Man by Feist and her voice is like a siren calling me out to sea. I want to get up and dance but I’m going to contain myself for at least one more day. A girls gotta heal lol.
I am sipping on a cappuccino it’s not to bad, but I’d rather be drinking a glass of this..
So yummy looking I could cry…
Oh no don’t cry Eden! I better get to telling you

No one developed health issues over ONE cookie. Well, the guinness book of world records for the largest cookie, maybe.
It looks delicious. Hope the knee heals up well!
