E: Pumpkin Granola Bars & Getting Dressed

I love baking!! Anyone else? Its so relaxing and I SO enjoy trying out new recipes. Josh is a big fan of homemade granola bars and likes having them for breakfast. I decided to try a new recipe for pumpkin granola bars from the Comfort of Cooking. The batter:

And the finished product:

The bars definitely have a unique consistency (due to no flour!) and a lot of spice. I enjoyed them, but want to try making them again with a few adjustments.

I also made up a batch of my big oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for my friend David who I teach/taught Body Attack with. Of all the baked goods I’ve brought into the gym, he claims these to be his favorite. Since I took Body Attack last night (low impact!), I figured he’d enjoy the little treat:

Getting ready for Attack last night made me laugh. I haven’t really switched over to maternity clothes yet (I’m mostly relying on longer shirts and my bella bands), but I’m thinking its about time.  Almost looks normal from the front:
