Sweet Potato Carob Chip Cookies

Kevin and I watched TiMER [2009] yesterday. Leave it up to Kevin to come home with a movie that no one has heard of [or was I just left in the dark on this one?] Basically, the movie is about a society that builds a timing devise that will tell the user the exact time…

In the next 48 hours I’ll have been to 2 more potlucks, 1 kids birthday party, 1 colleague Christmas party and will be absolutely ready…
