The best I ever had

You the, you the best, the best I ever had.

Oh drake, how I've loved thee since the first time I saw you on Degrassi.

This song seems only fitting for today's post, as I can't fully put in to words that you all REALLY ARE THE BEST. The best (and only) blog family I've ever had I swear, I still have chills from some of your uplifting and supportive comments on yesterdays post. In fact, I'm pretty sure that post generated the most comments in PB&J history (besides giveaways, obvi) which goes to show what angels you are in reaching out and helping to alleviate my fears. I wish I could personally respond to each and every one of your sweet messages and let you know deeply they all touched me.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Aside from your sweet words, something else that was mighty sweet brightened my day as well. The gracious folks from the Penny's Low fat Desserts company were amazing enough to send me some samples of their newest no sugar added chocolate truffle and toffee cinnamon cookies.

you bet your bottom dollar that didn't hesitate for a second before I ripped in to them. I tried the chocolate with some dark chocolate dreams and banana slices. Sammified, of course.

if you looked up "holy yum" in the dictionary I'm pretty sure this picture would be right beside it (next to veggiegirl's face, of course!)

This cookie was beyond words. 'Twas ridiculously chocolaty, insanely moist, and it's ridiculously insane that I'm not eating one right now. Something tells me that I won't be able to salvage these past Friday.

6 out of 5 PB lovin' jars. They were beyond perfection.

Today as a mid morning treat I dove in to the toffee cinnamon cookie.

The texture was spot on and the taste was great, but it tasted more like almonds than toffee to me (hey, i'm not complaining about that) The taste reminded me of a soft almond biscotti. Nom!

From the website:

4 out of 5 PB lovin' jars. I loved the cookie... Just slightly lacking in the toffee department.
