I know we already covered coconut and cookies this week. But it’s Friday and it’s been a long couple of weeks and I’m tired. And when I am tired, I want cookies. So that’s just the way it’s going to be I guess…

White Chocolate, Macadamia Nut and Coconut Cookies- gluten free

We got home late Thursday night from weeks of being on the road and I am so happy to see my little Wilbur, who is TRULY not so little any more. And because it was eleven o’clock at night and we hadn’t eaten dinner and the fridge was empty, I naturally attacked the freezer, where I found a whole bag of these. JOY!!! A couple of these and a hot mug of tea was the perfect way to ensure that I would get my children to bed and this blog posted. The unpacking however, was not so lucky. Neither will I be when I have to go deal with the laundary from those 6 suitcases sitting in the front hall. Yuck….
