Have to share...

This could be the most widely known recipe...well, for everyone except me. I have to share it though because they look (& taste) like they took hours to make and yet they are insanely easy! Oreo Cookie Balls are my new Christmas cookie obsession...

1 package Oreo cookies
1 (8 ounces) package cream cheese
1 package white chocolate

Put Oreo cookies in food processor, process until fine. Place crumbs into a bowl and mix with cream cheese. Roll mixture into balls and place on cookie sheet. Chill in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Once chilled, dip in melted white chocolate (or semi-sweet). Place cookie balls on wax paper in refrigerator to harden.

Hello 2009, please be kind.

This is my favorite picture of the last few seconds of 2008. I've set a completely realistic and simple resolution for once. I promise myself to do my dishes before going to bed. Something about dirty dishes in the sink isn't the nicest to wake up to in the morning. Maybe 2009 will bring the end of the small apartment, no dishwasher days.
