I feel like a Turkey

My hubby has a new job and he now works days, as I do. So, I get up with him (to spend more time together). I got up at 6am and cleaned the kitchen and ate breakfast with hubby. It was nice to have him home while we're both awake. Work was normal and nothing special.

I went to the gym and worked hard. I only ran 3 1/2 miles, though. I wanted more, but my legs were wiped out from yesterdays stair master. I got to my spin class early and started without the class. I ended up spinning for 65 minutes today. It was pretty tough.

When I got home, I showered and put on my compression socks. While I ate left overs (from yesterday), I iced my thighs. I really want some long compression shorts. I think those would really help my thighs heal faster.

For dessert, I made homemade peanut butter cups. I love these. They are so easy to make and they taste just like it! If you like PB cups, this is the recipe. I made these last night and let them set. They were so good, I took some to work. My co-workers loved them! They each wanted to eat them all. They didn't want to share with each other. I don't blame them!


First and second layer finished!


Close up.

Last layer ready to be put in the freezer for 30 minutes.

Details...so yummy!!

I love baking and cooking so much, I feel like I'm trying to fatten myself (and hubby) up for turkey day, like we're turkeys. I'm not gaining anything I can't handle (just 1-2 lbs over 4 months). So, it's not that bad. I'm going to eat some yummy's and relax while catching up on the dvr with the hubby! I love having him home at night. We're finally on the same schedule.
