You all know that food makes me excited. Can I tell you about my latest little fun food thing? I found these cute mini chocolate chips at Amazon. They don’t have any soy lecithin in them (my reason for looking). They’re so stinkin’ cute and fun to bake with. Yep, doesn’t take much to entertain us all around here. (And yes, I often do make my own chocolate chips, but sometimes a girl just needs a little chocolate chip convenience.)

I’ve also got to tell you about how we tried Valerie’s Bacon Cheddar Meatloaves  last week! We’d been excited all week long because, hello? Bacon, cheddar cheese and beef all together in one dish? How would that not be good?

So Saturday night came and I had the meatloaves in the oven baking…went to the fridge to get out the bacon to wrap around the loaves for the last phase of baking…and DIDN’T HAVE ANY BACON. I knew I had some bacon in there. Except that I didn’t.   And I was WAY too scary looking to run to the store (which thankfully I remembered before I went). 

So we had Cheddar Meatloaves , which were still amazingly wonderful, by the way.
