I’ve made a deal with myself today.
If I am good – eat healthy for lunch, avoid the vending machine in the afternoon, and hit the gym HARD after work – I get to have an extra special treat tonight.
I’m not normally one for pre-made cookie dough, but I picked up a package of Immaculate Baking Company’s gluten-free (and dairy-free) chocolate chip cookies this weekend. I baked them last night and, amazingly, resisted the temptation to have one (as I’d already gone over my sugar allowance for the day).
Check these beauties out:
Yum! My house smelled like HEAVEN for hours after baking these up last night.
So, if I can survive today without temptations (my diet has been pretty shaky the last week or so), I get to have one of these dream-discs (150 calories!) and a glass of wine after dinner!
Perhaps not this generous of a pour, but who knows? 🙂 Let’s see how my day turns out!
Bon appetit, my friends!

There’s nothing like the aroma of freshly baked cookies wafting through the house. Yum! Chocolate chip cookies and Malbec! I love it!
My house smelled INCREDIBLE last night. I sipped my Jam Jar Shiraz and just watched the cookies cooling on their tray. It was quite the test of my will power, but I managed to pack them all up without a single nibble.
Tori, that is WILLPOWER! 🙂 Sadly, freshly baked cookies are one of many Achilles heels for me.
Those look so yummy!
I will let you know how they taste tonight! I’m still proud of myself for not inhaling one (or ten) when they were still warm and gooey out of the oven yesterday evening. What a test of my will power!
Wow! Your cookies look wonderful! How did you hold yourself back not to eat them before your workout? That’s courage and reservation. 🙂
I had one the SECOND I got home… and another one for breakfast! 🙂
