I check my facebook! lol I feed the dogs, and pick up the house a little.

  2. They are really good!! I have never dipped them in chocolate, and they rarely make it to the rolled ball stage. I never even follow the directions either. lol I just add a whole thing of P-butter, and a little more of all the ingredients. lol You really cannot mess this up. And then I just throw it in some tupperware, and in the fridge. And I snack on it here and there. I know it sounds sinful....but it is sooooo yummy!!! In fact I might need to make it right now! lol
