Peanut Butter Cookies.

I'm addicted to peanut butter. I like it. It tastes good. It's good for me.

I have tons of open pb jars.  The regular Kraft stuff, the natural organic stuff... you name it, I've probably got it.

It makes sense that I like peanut butter cookies as well.

Some Peanut Butter Cookies were plain, 

others had some Cadbury Crunch chocolate bar added. 

Yeah, I can get real fancy like that.

Bark!

Want a quick snack?

Eat some bark.

Not tree bark, but chocolate bark!

Chocolate bark!

It's easy to make and fun to eat.

Melt some chocolate, add in whatever you want.

If you use semi-sweet, you might have to add in some sugar.

When your done, shove it in the fridge, then break it apart when its a solid piece.

Anything Goes...

A while ago, I helped out at an event.

There was a show to watch and then there was food to eat.

Lots of different stuff donated by local restaurants.

It was pretty awesome. 

There was this giant veggie bouquet.

Salmon-cream cheese-caper wraps from Blackfriars Catering.

Cinnamon-Apple Yogurt Bread

It's Fall.

There are lots of apples around.

I'm not great at making apple pies so I thought I would make an apple loaf.

Chocolate Bar Blondies

I don't know if you've noticed but Blondes are not Brunettes.

It's the same in baking... Blondies are not Brownies.

Blondies are all about brown sugar. Brownies are more into chocolate.

I made some Blondies, not Brownies.

Waffled Grilled Cheese

Grilled Cheese is easy.

All you need is bread, cheese, and butter.

It's way cooler if you have a waffle maker.

Black Bean Brownies

My oven has come alive again! It just started decided to work all of a sudden.

So now I'm testing out more recipes that seem healthier.

This recipe doesn't have butter or eggs, but it does have beans in it.

I love brownies. I don't like beans.

I tried this recipe anyways because I remembered that...

Beans, beans, the magical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot
The better you toot, the better you feel
So, let's eat beans for every meal!

...every meal, including dessert.

Yo! Let's go to the cafe... The Yogurt Cafe.

I went to Yo Yo's to grab some frozen yogurt.

A very good idea for them and for me.

They were happy because I served myself and they had less work to do.

I was happy because I got the tasty treat that I wanted.

A mutually beneficial relationship...

Chocolate Chip and Toffee Cookies

I wanted to bake to cookies, but the oven is still broken.

Luckily, I had a toaster oven so I decided to put it to use.

Before I tinkered with the little baby oven, I was inspired by Waffleizer to make cookies with the waffle machine.

Relish on this.

I went to a Gourmet Burger restaurant and I ate a burger. The place was called Relish Gourmet Burger.

First you had to pick a Gourmet Burger Patty from the selection of:

• Pure ground sirloin, Grilled chicken breast, 
• Veggie burger, Portobello mushroom cap, 
• Lamb, Salmon or Bison

Then you had to choose your type of Gourmet Burger. There were lots of different burgers... like 40 or so. They also had interesting descriptions.

• Basic Instinct - "Cheddar cheese...extremely boring but who’s judging"
• Kosher Special - "Cheddar cheese-bacon...still kinda boring but again we're not judging"
• Stoned Kosher - "Cheddar cheese-bacon-sautéed mushrooms...see that better"
• Tucker and Tazz Burger - "Cheddar cheese-bacon-sautéed mushrooms and onions...good job!!!" 

F.Y.I. Tucker and Tazz are local radio hosts.

And then they had weirder ones.

• Nutter Butter Peanut Butter Burger - "Peanut butter-jack cheese-bacon" 
• Tree Hugger - "Pesto-grilled eggplant-grilled red peppers-grilled Bermuda onion-goat cheese" 
• Straight to LHSC - "Back bacon-double smoked bacon-Swiss cheese-cheddar cheese" 

F.Y.I. LHSC is a local hospital.

I had the Don Ho - "Pineapple ring-teriyaki sauce-red onion"
