August 23, 2016 at 7:30 PMOkay, are you sitting around babying your leg and having too much idle time on your hands? You are creating some incredible looking desserts and tempting me! Not that it takes too much to tempt me, but this looks fabulous! You know I love breakfast any time of the day, and this is a total winner! Yum!
Marilyn
August 24, 2016 at 8:12 PMThanks Nikki. I am totally sidelined and eating pb&j and Kix when someone is around to feed me. I am torturing myself going into my archives for posts and drooling over what I cannot have. My sugar loves me though. My muscles are getting toned and I think I have lost some weight too so I have to keep smiling. Could be worse. At least I am home and have a computer and tylenol! Oh and Dr said no surgery!! Glad you are seeing some light too. Enjoy your week.
