Good evening everyone. I hope you are having a wonderful week thus far. I can’t believe Sophia only has two more days of school before she is off for two weeks. Wow!! I am so excited to have her home and not have a schedule to follow. I am tired of having to be at the bus at 8:14am and 4:04pm. Not only is Sophia going to be home with us so is Daddy. Whoo hoo!! We are going to have some wonderful family time. I love being with my family. Our family of girls plus Daddy.
Since, it’s Wednesday it’s time to talk about food. Today, I made one of my favorite holiday treats, White Chocolate Candy Mix. There are so many different names for it, but this is what we like to call it.
I packaged it up to give to teachers as part of their gifts. I give a gift card with their mix.
Okay, I must confess I ate way too much of this candy mix while making it. I made sure to make up for it the rest of the day, I ate extremely healthy. Poached egg for dinner with a turkey meatball. I know funny combo, but it was tasty and full of protein. I called it a day after dinner, no more sweets for me. My trick for treating myself during the holidays is to make sure that I only pick one treat per day and to eat healthy the rest of the day. You still get to enjoy your favorite treats without blowing your diet and workout. I hate working my booty off to then blow it on food. That’s just me. I know my hubby workouts to eat unhealthy stuff. To each their own.
Don’t forget to head on over to Peas and Crayons to see what everyone else is eating these days.

This is the most perfect holiday treat!
We love this, but it is so addicting. So, I make sure to put it in individual servings. Otherwise I would eat the entire recipe. 🙂
This looks so good!
My favorite treats are candied walnuts and warm, soft gingerbread cookies dipped in nutella!
Thank you. Oh those sounds delicious.
Wow that looks amazing, I clicked on the photo simply because I was amazed at how delicious that looks, I have a horrible sweet tooth too! But I try to only indulge once during the day if I do at all. Also your family is amazing, four girls is such a beautiful thing I come from a similar family setup and hope that in the future mine resembles the same love and light as yours!
Yes, my sweet tooth would be awful if I didn’t reign it in. Ha!! Yes, me too. I try to simply eat something sweet once a day and not too much. But we all have off days. 🙂
We love our family of four girls, life is definitely an adventure and I love our life!
