  1. They do look yummy. The problem with things like that is that you think "they are only small, I could eat a handful..." and then after that handful you think it again...and a few moments later another handful goes down and pretty soon your jar/bowl is empty and you have to make another batch ;)

  2. it's been ages since I made balls like these, which is silly as they are healthy and tasty and I have all the ingredients. (love the little flowered jug too :-)
