Scotcharoos

{ A.K.A. I'm sad and I need something sweet to make me feel better }

So, our first offer on a house has been countered. And by what? Three measly thousand dollars from the listing price. Is that even considered a counter!? That's ridiculous. This house we love is already far from reasonably over-priced and I had to have a little giggle with our real estate agent who commented, "we must have missed the solid gold inlays throughout the house." We're going to counter again, but not by much. Pretty certain this will not go through. Whatever is meant to be, will be right? Que sera, sera.

On to dessert! Learned this fun recipe from friend Kate P. and I can't even count how many times I have made these. Super simple. Enjoy!
