I spent my lunch break at Star Market, hunting down the ingredients for all of the cooking I needed to do later tonight.
I snacked on an apple when I got back from the store.
And after reading Tweets about everyone’s chocolate cravings, I had to have some too!
As soon as I got home, I started working on my recipes. I made raviolis using Nasoya Egg Roll Wraps.
I filled my raviolis with ground turkey. I used a little bit of water to seal the edges, then threw the pan in the oven at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes.
I was too hungry to wait it out so I made a sandwich using ground turkey, cheddar cheese, sprouts, and pickles on an Arnold Thin.
Finally it was time for the taste test: Mmm mmm good!
I moved on to my Candle Cookies. I had a lot of work to do to get these ready for the Sweet Swap at work tomorrow.
Ginger thin, shortbread cookie, Pirouette cookie.
Green icing around the base.
Added the marshmallow flames.
Candle cookies with dripping frosting wax!
So proud of myself! I love my little holiday candles!
I attempted to film my Nasoya video but couldn’t get the lighting right. Then my camera battery died. Ugh. In the meantime, I made a batch of Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies for my department’s party on Thursday. Very pleased with how they turned out, but because of the dead battery, I don’t have any photos.
I’m exhausted so I’ll add a quick post with both recipes in the morning. After so much cooking and baking, I know I’ll have sweet dreams!

A sandwich is not a sandwich unless there are spouts! Those cookies are too cute.

Those cookies are insane! I want to eat all the frosting right off the screen. I love frosting in case you didn’t know that
I hope you’ll post the video! Have fun at the sweet swap.
