    Finally getting around to posting!

    Day 1: Red Lobster for lunch including Clam Chowder and Cheddar Bay Biscuits, later Apple Pie that my husband made in the flurry of Thanksgiving preparations he wanted time in the kitchen.... and some Graeter's Salted Caramel ice cream

    957CBCBC-5E4B-4605-A962-018AF1A424E5_zpsxlw8xrpf.jpg

    Day 2: All the Thanksgiving foods but was very disappointed in the dessert selection at this particular celebration, including my own contribution.

    Day 3: Upgrading my dessert from Thanksgiving (Pumpkin Cheesecake) into Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake bars with Salted Caramel Glaze. Lots of taste testing to get it right.
    Original:

    The initial couple bites was great, I could taste the sugar cookieness! But then it started tasting like regular cinnamon toast crunch... lol!

    It's good enough though to continue buying. After my box is gone I'll try the cookie crisp one.

    Day 8: Sugar Cookie Toast Crunch. Haha.


    So guys... I need opinions. I'm determined to have one of the other holiday cereals tomorrow for breakfast. I have Sugar Cookie Crisp and I have Sugar Cookie Pebbles. Which one should I go with?
