I love that these cookies aren’t too sweet. The dried cherries, dark chocolate, and maple syrup add just enough sweetness without going overboard. Mmm! Trust me, these cookies are really good! I’ve already eaten three!

Lunch

I ate lunch at my desk at NuVal while working away. I had a big arugula salad topped with Buffalo Tofu and Athenos feta crumbles. On the side, I had a chocolate chip granola bar, a peach, and another iced coffee with Almond Breeze.
