I played kickball the other night. Double header. Brian explained to me that double header means two games. So thoughtful. Always looking out for me and my child-like understanding of sports. We lost our first game. But we only had 8 players. Then, out of nowhere, we brought it back and won our second game. I did nothing for either of those games. I’m going to start practicing ball sports. Especially since my leg is bruised. What the f*ck. How am I so uncoordinated? Goal for 2013: become a real athlete. Meaning kickball player.
This recipe is one from way back when. And I didn’t actually even create it. I’m such a fake. This recipe is from Stacey from Stacey’s Paleo Kitchen. I have no idea who Stacey is but I use to get recipe inspiration from her blog when I first started eating paleo. Thanks Stacey, whoever you are, you’re awesome. And I like your pictures way better than mine. I took these pictures while I was trying to blow up an air mattress for my friend Sam. Multitasking is sometimes frustrating.
My face is still peeling off. It is NOT attractive. It just won’t peel away. Not only did my chemical peel burn like a b*tch, but now I have to be reminded of it every day in the mirror. WTF. Please peel away face. Then maybe I can have a bit more confidence. I need all the confidence I can get for Regionals this weekend.
Holy poop. Regionals starts tomorrow. OMG OMG. I’m going to be so stupid nervous. Like what?! It’s here?!? I get to cheer on Jason, as well as our team including Jake, Jon, Sergio, Katie Mac, Meghan, and Kara, all from our lovely home, CrossFit Broadway. That’s a lot of nervous butterflies. That’s a lot of going to the bathroom.

How long will coconut butter last in the frig and is coconut butter and coconut concentrate the same thing? thxs!
Like forever. I’ve had mine for so long, not even in the fridge and it’s just fine
Yum! It’s national cookie day, so my son and i made these. My husband doesn’t like them because he doesn’t like dark chocolate. More for us!!!!
These are sooo good, quick, and easy! You make them just like you make no bake cookies …..in a pan on the stove and then drop them on wax paper….just like no bakes. Many of the unhealthy people at work have even tried these and said…that’s a no nake……uhhh yea. that’s how close they are to no bakes.
These are yummy! I have made them three times so far, and my family devours them each time. The second time I made it, I got confused and used 3/4 cup coconut butter and omitted the almond butter, then I forgot the vanilla. I also used coarsely ground almonds & cashews. They were still yummy.
I popped over here to ask a question, actually. The chocolate concoction is so amazingly delicious, and while I like adding it to coconut & nuts, I keep wishing there were some other ways to turn it into a cookie or a bar. Do you have any other recipes that use this combination?
these were the jam! the non-paleos in my life even enjoyed them! 🙂
These are the bomb!
The 5 stars say it all. mmm chocolate, I love chocolate and coconut and maple syrup and… haha ok that has to be said in the Homer Simpson voice 😉
