I had hopes of losing a little bit of my extra weight before traveling to Las Vegas in less than two weeks for SITScation. I’m meeting some good friends for the first time, and want to look my best. I’ve been trying to watch what I eat, and I’ve actually been fairly successful….until this weekend.
On Saturday, KitKat and her friend, who spent the weekend with us, baked some Lemon Cheese Bars, and while the name didn’t sound all that enticing, I have not been able to keep my hands off those little buggers all weekend. They are killing me.
Oh, but it is a sweet way to die.
My pants may not fit quite as loosely as I would have liked in Vegas, but Oh Boy, has it been worth it.
In case you’re interested, here is the recipe:
