Starting Off With a Brownie

Some days, you just have to start with dessert.

Today is a day, for me, that is just that.  Yesterday was incredibly draining.  From waking up super early, to listening to the Littles duke it out for every toy, to teeth coming to the surface, to an arm that just doesn't seem to want to heal.  Draining. 

Instead of pouting when the kids went to bed, I baked. I poured all of the frustration and sorrow into peanut cheesecake brownies. It was soul soothing. It was waist-line enhancing. It was too good to keep to myself. S and I had some after the dessert was baked. They were pretty good...

But.  They weren't quite ready for consumption. They really did need the recommended cool down time that I forewent. It was kind of a gloppy mess that I didn't end up finishing.

Fast forward to this morning. I didn't sleep much last night, and Buddy has already voiced his opinion about his negative desires surrounding his attendance at school, and I spilled half of my 750ml water bottle on the floor. It was a dessert kind of morning.

I dished out some of the sugar laden delicacy and munched happily on it. I also got to spend a little time in the Word before the littlest Little awoke. ...so sweet things have defined my morning.

Here's looking forward to more sweet happenings today,
