plus panut buttery chocolate frosting to turn it up to leven, man.

1 cup s'milk.
stir it all to combine it completely, and scoople it evenly into all those papers.

you get SO many BIG flavors in this combination.
the peanut butts and the chocolate work together with that thick chocolate chip cake.
it's s'doooooooope.

*
very busy.
that's what i am.
packing in as much work as i can is what i have to do.
i dunno when this little bay girl is gonna arrive;
but i'm assuming that when she does, i'm gonna be busier than ever,
but not at the shop for a little teentsy tiny span of time.
there's never enough time to do everything,
i'm just hoping there's time to do this one thing.
it's very important, as are the ladies who're the principal players in this powerplay.
i'm grateful for these people.
they matter a lot;
never quiet, never soft.....
