Here, Have a Cookie [Giveaway!]

Hi friends! How are you? Hope youโ€™re having a wonderful morning <3

Thanks so much for all of the funny comments about my rapping skillz and for the sweet wishes about Foodbuzz festival– Iโ€™m so excited for it!

To those of you who guessed the Quinoa Confetti casserole (from Eat, Drink and Be Vegan) for last nightโ€™s dinner, you were right ๐Ÿ™‚

dinner

With greens, balsamic and POMs.

I had two bowls full- love this recipe! I was definitely hangry after Dance Trance-ing it up, so this hit the spot.

This morning I had to work early, but thought Iโ€™d wake up a little earlier so I could make a fun breakfast. As deep as my relationship is with breakfast cookies and cookie dough cereal, you have to switch it up sometimes, ya know?

Pumpkin Perfect Protein Pancakes <—– alliteration whaaaaat?!

blob (2)

The only thing is, someone got a little overzealous with the pumpkin and the little beasts wouldnโ€™t cook or flip!

Good thing I veganized them because Iโ€™m eating pancake dough blobs with maple syrup and cacao nibs right now ๐Ÿ˜‰

Still foodgasmic ๐Ÿ™‚

Speaking of foodgasmsโ€ฆโ€ฆ

How about a giveaway??

Yes, you saw that right.

COOKIES!
Not just any cookiesโ€”these are from the Cravory, and from what I can tell, theyโ€™re incredible. (Maybe theyโ€™ll send me some for *review*? Baha)

Iโ€™m really, really excited about this giveaway because one of the founders of the Cravory (Derek, who also goes by โ€œBiggieโ€), and I knew each other in college. We were in business school together and my room mates were friends with his group of friends. I was so excited to see via Facebook that heโ€™d partnered up with some guys and started this business. Itโ€™s funny too because one of my good friends (a squadron wife) is cousins with another one of the founders- small world, ehh??

The idea of the Cravory is pretty ridiculous- you go in, โ€œdesignโ€ your cookie, and they make it for you. They have a beautiful variety of dough and ingredients.

From their website:

All ya have to do is leave a comment with your dream cookie combo.

  27. Whitney on October 12, 2010 at 10:08 pm

    Holy wow! For me, it’s the mexican hot chocolate cookie — I’ve been tinkering with some way to get some sweet-spicy heat into a choco-chip cookie for a while now, but have been ending up with some tasty (and some not-so-tasty) flops. Awesome cookies all around!



  28. Karen on October 12, 2010 at 10:12 pm

    Classic chocolate chip is always a favorite!



  29. Claire on October 12, 2010 at 10:13 pm

    My ultimate cookie combo would be a pumpkin (just for kicks since its fall!) and salty PB cookie dough with rich dark chocolate chunks and possibly walnuts.



  30. Kristen B on October 12, 2010 at 10:17 pm

    I’ve never met a cookie I didn’t like. That being said, the ultimate cookie creation= oatmeal + dried cherries + figs + Justin’s honey almond butter + white chocolate chunks + crushed pretzels… gotta have that sweet & salty flava with a little texture, ya know? I really like the idea of the Cravory. I see some awesome gifs for friends in the future.



  31. Erica on October 12, 2010 at 10:20 pm

    Dream cookie? Pumpkin-raisin-fig-walnut!



  32. Astrid on October 12, 2010 at 10:28 pm

  33. Bonnie on October 12, 2010 at 10:29 pm

    Browned butter, semi-sweet chocolate disks, a little bit of oatmeal, some crushed Reese’ cups throughout, and vanilla.



  34. Emily on October 12, 2010 at 10:35 pm

    COOKIES!!!! I would love this!

    I would like to try a chocolate (duh), coconut, cherry, fudge cookie. YUM!



  35. Dynamics on October 12, 2010 at 10:48 pm

    Wow, 682 comments. Cookies, cookies and more cookies. Me please.



  36. EMC on October 12, 2010 at 10:50 pm

    I just “discovered” your blog today. What lucky timing! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Either a gooey nutella type cookie or something involving chocolate and raspberry. Or maybe a kettle corn cookie! Ooooh. Feeling inspired now…



  37. Stacey on October 12, 2010 at 10:51 pm

    I’ve been so into ginger lately! So I think my dream combo at the moment would be a ginger + fruit (peach?! pear?!) + chocolate chip cookie. Ahhh…



  38. Krissy on October 12, 2010 at 10:53 pm

    Chocolate and ginger



  39. Lauren on October 12, 2010 at 10:57 pm

    Oh wowsers…this sounds amazing! I’d have a chewy chocolate cookie with Reese’s cups, honey roasted peanuts, and peanut butter and butterscotch chips (can you tell I love peanut butter? ). Maybe a few toffee bits thrown in too ๐Ÿ™‚



  40. Katherine on October 12, 2010 at 11:00 pm

    I think I would like a nut/M&M combo, but someone also mentioned a cookie with ginger in it and that just got my mouth going! I wonder if all those would go? ๐Ÿ™‚



  41. Nidia on October 12, 2010 at 11:08 pm

    I would love a chocolate and coconut cookie! Yum! I’m drooling just thinking about it. ha ha



  42. Samantha on October 12, 2010 at 11:12 pm
