Nutty Cookie Bar

July 24, 2012 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! Is it hotter than hot where anyone else lives?? Here in Nebraska it’s been in the hundreds of degrees with ludicrous humidity.  How the heck is a girl to run outside when she rolls out of bed at 9am (don’t be too jealous, I worked last night) and it’s already 86 out…and feels…
