When it comes to holiday treats, Trader Joe’s rules. Chocolate-covered cherries, chocolate truffles, peppermint white chocolate pretzels – if you’re on a diet, STAY AWAY!

But who goes on a diet during the holidays??

My newest addiction are the milk chocolate salted caramel butter cookies. Yes, the name is a mouthful, but the cookie is a mouthful of pure deliciousness.

I can’t bring myself to look at the nutrition facts, so right now I’m just pretending that they’re not that bad for me. Plus, they’re small. So how much damage could one do? (nevermind that my usual serving is three…)

Lately, these cookies are what makes me excited to come home at night.

That, and seeing Will and Gatsby, of course.

The cookies can’t love me back. I have to keep telling myself that.
