We had a great trip over the long weekend and managed to visit friends and family in 5 states within a 5 day period of time :) Along the way we ate fabulously. Justin's mom is a wonderful cook, and seems to pull out new recipes every time we come for a visit. Below is her chocolate covered oreo cookie cake which was out of this world. Her recipe comes from Kraft Recipes at this link.
