Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownie Batter Bites

It’s been another crazy weekend!  I didn’t get Sam’s room done because the basement flooded. But, I did work on it.  By next Sunday it will be DONE!

It was the perfect amount of sweet!  I’m pretty sure it gave me…

I didn’t allow myself a peek at facebook! The other day I…
