Benefits of Having A Food Blogger for A Mom (and Nutella Blondies)

Sniff, Sniff, Sniff. I smell some butter, sugar and things that are not good for your body. uh-oh. I was asked to create a blondie recipe and I did….and then I passed those hip-expanders to some friends after the kids had one (two).

During the process of baking and photographing the blondies, I was reminded of the built-in benefits of your mom being a foodie. Here is the timeline with my sweet sweet monkey and his mischievous ways:

Son: Oh Mommy, that looks pretty. Can I have one?
Mommy: Yes honey bunny, after I am done taking photos….oh, I need a different lens, be right back. Upon my return, I see this…

Which led to this…..

Son: Sorry Mommy, I just wanted to taste it (as tears well up in those big big eyes)
Mommy: Don’t cry honey, let’s put it back and I will take a few more photos….

snap, snap, magic occurs in the camera and then ‘Okay, honey, go at it.

Now, run to the refrigerator and grab a carrot and low-fat ranch dressing for a snack. Stop staring and go!

    Those look delicious! I have a great photo series of my son stealing cookies – he ended up with one in each hand.

    Those look fantastic! Definitely one of the perks of having a mom who cooks all. the. time.

    Thanks Chef Ryan…those little bites polished that puppy off in no time. Then he asked for the other one. I said, nope BUT I will save it for you to eat tomorrow after the fruit & veggie-fest.

    I am sure that he is more than grateful to have those great bars being home. And what a great capture, that tiny bite on the blondie too, way cute!
