This week, I've been making pajama bottoms and hats to send to a friend. I'll be posting those at the end of the week. Today, after a killer spin class, I really (emphasis on REALLY) wanted a bagel.

Changes I needed to make: ~ I had to add a small amount of almond milk as my dough was too crumbly (attributing … Continue reading Fixate Chocolate Chip Cookies
