two cookies and six grams of fat

These Trader Joe's Candy Cane Joe-Joe's are super duper delicious, but they made my Ben freak a little. He said, "1 serving is 2 cookies, 6 grams of fat and 140 calories. You can only eat 2 (a day)!" Thankfully, there is no hydrogenation in them, otherwise, they would be off limits. Well, that is my loving dietitian husband for you... 
Anyways, I had to try them after seeing Jen's post and luckily today T.J.'s was giving samples of them. I took one bite and fell in love... Jen was so right. I am hooked, you really ought to try them too. Thanks Jen for getting me in trouble!

Speaking of cookies, I did a little interview for Cookie Magazine's Nesting blog and it just came out today. I love all their house features, so the fact we are there too makes me smile big! So to see the True and Brave's rooms again or to read me babble a little, go here... 

I am really thankful for all the love our house has been getting in blogland considering only I know how messy our house really is! I hope you all aren't sick of my house just yet...

Happy Monday and I will be eating some of my yummy cookies... but only 2 (well, maybe three)!!!

  3. I was just at Trader J's earlier this evening... why oh why couldn't I have read this sooner?! :o) Oh well, at least I know about them now. I remember trying some oreo's once that had green minty filling inside. They were quite good... but I have a feeling these will be even better. Next time, I'll be on a mission. Have a great Tuesday!

  6. Two cookies! That is some major portion control. I need me a dietitian husband, too, instead of "Hey, let's get In-N-Out tonight!"

    Hehe, and thanks for the shoutout. Congrats on the Cookie interview! Heading over there right now.

    And I see, miss Becky, you've become entrapped in the whole Twilight deal, hmmmmm?... I admit, I'm finally caving and want to start the series myself.

  9. Oh, I wanna try the cookies!!


    Sometimes it makes no good to read about stuff that happens in the other side of the world!! =/

    But, if you ever come to Brazil, you MUST remeber to try a homemade candy called "brigadeiro" (Everyone knows how to make it, it's really easy). You sould never forget this word! =)

    Kisses from Brazil!
