Baking Season

P9100021.jpg

I recently had a random craving for chocolate chip oatmeal cookies (inspired by Auntie Chel's delicious ass ube white chocolate chip oatmeal cookies). The weather has been taking a dip in temperature lately and I find myself listing off things [I try] to look forward to in the Fall. If I don't create this list, making it through the gray/cold/rainy months is torture for me. So with Fall comes baking season. I like cooking, but I am a horrible baker. I found this random recipe on Pinterest and I actually succeeded in baking something tasty! It's easy to cook something tasty and healthy - but baking something tasty and healthy is a whole different ballgame. I'm playing around with replacing some ingredients with healthier alternatives (i.e. almond flour, brown rice syrup, dark chocolate, etc.). We'll see how it goes.

But don't get it twisted - SUMMER IS NOT OVER. (I am admittedly in pure denial.)
