Give this one a try before St. Patty’s day and let me know what you think!Just a quick post today to tell you about a sandwich I think you need to know about.

This Summer I decided to make a few changes to the recipe so I wouldn’t have to feel so guilty when I grabbed another cookie every time I opened the fridge.I’m thrilled with what I came up with!.

First of all, here are the ingredients.I always find it disappointing when I think I’ve found a really great recipe, but then discover that it’s got really obscure ingredients that I don’t either already have on hand or can get easily at the local grocery store.I love those recipes that you can run to the kitchen and make right away if the inspiration strikes!.

Unsweetened Shredded Coconut.Forgot to include the cocoa powder in the photo!.

First you need to mix together the coconut oil and the maple syrup, then add in the cocoa powder and mix until smoothish.. Next, add the oats and shredded coconut and mix until combined.. Drop your cookies by the heaping teaspoon onto a cookie sheet or a plate lined with waxed paper, parchment, or whatever.

No need to grease it first because these really come unstuck very easily, I find.. And that’s pretty much it!There are days when working even an hour is just not going to happen, and I love that with my system, that’s totally OK. I’ll often take Sundays off completely just because the whole family’s home, or we’re working on a project for the house, or I’m just tired and want to have a day to relax and forget that I have a business that I could be working on at any given moment.

It’s important..If you find yourself feeling like you need to do more and more everyday just to keep up with the rest of the blogging world, I totally understand where you’re coming from.

I still see clever things that other bloggers are doing all the time and I definitely have the tendency to think that maybe if I just got up a little earlier, or stayed up a little later to sneak in some extra work time, then I could be clever like them too, but that’s just a losing battle.Plus I have to remember that I’m already pretty clever in my own way.
