Well hello all!

Sweet.

Can’t wait. I mean really. I.am.stoked.

Granted, I live in New England. Yes, I know this. But, as I have gotten older…cleaning up snow SUCKS!

Anyways, Mother Nature, if you could like make it so I have a snow day tomorrow that would be awesome. Because all the schools are already cancelled….and I never get a day off.

Until then, feast your eyes on these babies.

Yummy, moist and super healthy for you.

This was my first experience with cooking with coconut oil. I was pleasantly surprised. I have always been weary because Patrick hates coconut. I think it is a texture thing for him.

I know, insanity. He also hates nuts.

::enter second blank look::

Anyway, there was NO coconut taste. NONE. Which is great because I didn’t have to worry about him thinking there was coconut in it.

However, he did do his weirdo face when he tried it because he thought I put coconut flakes in in. However I did not. Sometimes, I just shouldn’t tell him what I make things with…that way he will never know.

His sister told me about a time when he ate a WHOLE BOX of cookies that nuts in them and didn’t even slow down until someone said…

“Uhh, you realize there is nuts in those cookies” :CHOKES!:

Picky man.

However, I love these little guys. They are healthy, they are super awesome for pre and post workout meals, even a little something sweet after dinner.

Perfect little mini muffins! Enjoy!
