WHO IS EXCITED FOR FRIDAY?! It is only 4 days away!
Friday aka jeans day is my favorite day of the week. ย Everyone who knows me, knows that wearing jeans to work makes me giddy. Who wouldn’t want to wear denim to their office. In honor of jeans day I try to bring in a tasty snack to the office once a month. This month it was some new banana chocolate chip muffins. I was at Trader Joe’s doing my grocery shopping and I saw coconut flour. I decided to try it. ย The results were delicious. Hope you enjoy these as much as my co-workers did!
