PEANUT BUTTER BARS

It's Canada Day long weekend and I thought I would kick it off by trying out the allrecipes.com peanut butter bars recipe for husband. He loves peanut butter! A few of the reviews mentioned they were better than Reese's cups! I will let you know.

 I have no idea what our plans are for the holiday weekend, we will probably just play it by ear. Romilly has been keeping us up, all hours this week which is why I haven't been blogging as much. She may be nocturnal. it is definitely slowing us down. I have used up all my reserve sleep. Last night i sent husband to the spare room to get a few Zzz's so he'll be good for Euan. Family naps are on the agenda for sure! 

Happy Friday! xo
