So, I’m learning that blogging doesn’t really work unless
you do it. While I might draft a few
posts in my head, they don’t always seem to make it to the page. Well--that coupled with the fact that I’ve
been working tirelessly on a case for the past week. I had to write a document all day on Easter. My Brain Needs. A Break.
Today, I finally got to do two very, VERY necessary and
important things that were postponed because of said really annoying case:
(1) I
got to finally make Taylor Made it Paleo's Reese's Eggs (woohoo); and
(2) I
went to the gym after about a week.
Let’s talk about both.
First off, if I get out of the groove of going to the gym,
it’s just so hard to get back into it.
After about two or three days, I swear I feel more flabby. And that’s just discouraging. Thankfully, I signed up for some personal
training sessions. Having to meet
someone at the gym at 7:00 a.m. gets me there when I’ve gotten side-tracked by
work or other things. Today was leg day,
and I know I will be feeling it in the days to come!
And now for the "Reese’s" Eggs. I’ve been
wanting to make these things since she posted about them a few days before
Easter. Reese’s Eggs and Cadbury Eggs
are my Easter favs. Ideally, I would’ve
made them on Easter day--But with work and all, that dream just wasn’t going to
come to pass. Better late than
never.
Today, I only have one remaining. Yep.
That’s right. The recipe says it
was supposed to make 10, but I only was able to come up with 8 from the batter. And now there’s just one. They were good.
So, I used sun butter to make these eggs, as the recipe
suggested. And to be honest, this was my
first foray into using and trying sunflower seed butter. It was good, but I think I’m going to work on
tweaking this recipe to suit my own taste buds.
I’d prefer it a little sweeter, and I’ll probably use a mixture of
butters next time. Or maybe I’ll just
use cashew butter or just almond butter.
Who knows. Either way, my boyfriend
loved them. They were easy to make, and the
finished product made me look like a superstar in the kitchen. No complaints here.
