I have been so busy these past few months! Nursing my baby girl constantly (SERIOUSLY.. she eats ALL the time, every 40-90 minutes all day and night long)

She hates sleeping too so it is everything I can do to cook for my family, clean and manage to have energy to play with my VERY ACTIVE 2 year old. Needless to say, I have been exhausted and not able to create too much in the kitchen for my awesome followers. SORRY!!

I’m not sure about you BUT when I am tired, I  C R A V E  sugar so much! This is not a good thing for me because sugar makes me irritable and moody.

I satisfied my cravings by working on this recipe A LOT. I have been making this for every get together and event I’ve attended for the last few months. Hope y’all love them as much as my non- paleo friends.

*side note- I made these for our local police officers for a “Feed the Police” event and they were devoured before most of the police officers got to the event…
