There was some AMAZING looking treats for a bake off that I REALLY wanted to eat, but lived vicariously through my coworkers. Figured the second day of trying out the new program, I didn’t need to blow my weekly points on something not super special. I would rather do dessert night with Joel this weekend when the kids go to bed and I can be snuggled on the couch.
