It's been a long week and I am soooo glad it's the weekend - finally! Brian's work schedule is crazy and I have had a lot to deal with by myself this week. It has drained me. I need one of those "mom time-outs"  that I've heard about!

We've got family in town this weekend for a birthday party, so I am looking forward to having some down time and fun! 

Speaking of fun, how fun are these Caramelitas?! Have mercy!! They've got a buttery oatmeal crust with yummy caramel and chocolate, sprinkled with nuts! I needed a little somethin' somethin' to brighten my spirits after this past week and these little treats hit the spot!
