Yes, it’s Tuesday… but sometimes you just want to be laid pack but with a professional twist. My answer? A fitted blazer.
A simple tee, with skinny jeans, simple tennis shoes and a few glam accessories (ie. crocodile clutch and bedazzled headband) and I’m all set!
Comfortable and chic!

Chicken Flautas in a Roasted Tomatillo Broth
These were amazing and the recipe makes quite a few… I prepared half of them and froze the other half. Always love a 2 for 1 meal 🙂
A yummy and healthier alternative to fried chicken parm! I added sliced cherry tomatoes and a sprig of basil on top for a fresh finish!
The Feezor women love Bourbon (go figure!) and are always looking for fun ways to enjoy it… the funniest part is our favorite way is just over ice! But when I discovered this classic drink, I couldn’t believe I’d never enjoyed it… and now I’m hooked!
Ginger Whiskey Sour
Pour over an ice filled glass and stir.
Gotta love a quick drink with minimal clean-up!

The most delicious evening in the city – whiskey sours at Dixie and dinner at Presidio Social Club. Other highlights – a really cool container to serve water in, amazing oysters, a fun beer glass and one of sister’s many birthday wishes.

So I’m sure you’ve all Pinned or at least seen pins of the famous $250 Neiman Marcus cookie.. you know this one? Or this one?
Well I finally decided to give it a try, and test it out for myself!
The recipe makes 112 cookies, and considering I shouldn’t have been eating them in the first place, I decided to cut the recipe in half. Here is what I did:
Neiman Marcus Cookies
1 cup butter
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cups sugar
2 1/2 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal and blend in a blender to a fine powder)
12 ounces chocolate chips
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 -8 ounce Hershey Bar (I only had a 1/5 oz. bar, so added more chocolate chips)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups chopped nuts (your choice, I like pecans and walnuts)
Directions:
Consensus? It was a little more involved than a standard chocolate chip cookie and the end result wasn’t really worth it to me. I may be a chocolate chip cookie purist, but the blended oats and grated chocolate bar didn’t really bring anything extra spectacular to the table for me. If you love a soft cookie with some texture, this is for you… but if you are more into chewy/crispy cookies, these aren’t the ones for you.
