We made our first trek to NYC this weekend. It was glorious. But it started with an alarm at 5:45 am. A walk to the train in the pouring rain. And a two hour train ride. Wishful thinking—I thought we lived closer to the city.
The clouds parted just in time to head to my first blogger bash thanks to an invite from Rebecca of A Daily Something. She throws a crazy beautiful party. Afterwards we walked what felt like a half marathon around the city. Ate some good food. Fell in love with Chelsea Market. And replaced my favorite holey-armpit NYPD t-shirt from high school. I’ve been wearing it ever since. Pretty sure I’m a little boy at heart.
Because I can’t get enough, I’m heading back to the city this week for Alt Design Summit NYC. I’m beyond excited. It may or may not take place at the Martha Stewart headquarters. Times like this I question why I chose my name. Sorry Martha.
But in the name of Martha, I’m sharing this cookie recipe and their birth story over at Spirituality and Health. Coconuts, oats, wheat flour—these might just be a new fave without all the guilt.



















Mmmm…look delish! I’ll head over and check the recipe out.
Those. Look. So. Good. I. Might. Cry.
Yum! These have my favorite ingredients in them! Heading over to get the recipe.
Sounds great ,and delicious .
These sound great as does your weekend! Wish I would’ve gotten tickets to AltSummit NYC before they sold out.
I love when cookies maintain a “drop” shape. these have got to be addicting

Same here. The shape of the cookie is almost as important as the taste. Almost.
They look delicious! I love those cups too… anthro?
Yep, anthro! A gift from the sister. She knows me well
I was in NYC at Chelsea Market the weekend before. Love, love, love. Such a jaw dropping experience… like these cookies I must say. Have fun at Design Summit. I am SO jealous. Please post details!!!
Aww, we missed each other by a weekend. Gonna have to plan something while I’m living nearby!
Two hours from NYC sounds like a dream come true! Have so much fun at Alt.
I forget two hours is way closer than before. I’m being greedy.
My daughter will love them. I will surprise her with your cookies tomorrow. Fantastic idea for a healthy recipe.
I hope she loved them!
Hey girl! It was SO awesome meeting you – sorry we didn’t get to chat for longer …. you’ll have to make the trip again soon.
Oh, and btw, I live about 90 mins from the NYC when I take a train…but it’s really only 45 min in a car. So maybe you do live closer after all….
These are beautiful, Mel! I’ve been a lousy visitor lately, about to dig into some missed posts here. xo
Thanks Kelsey, and don’t you worry. I’ve been just as lousy if not worse. I’ve been horrible at responding to comments. Horrible! Trying to make amends.
These look SO good! Hmm–so many delicious flavors in them. Definitely going to head over and check out the recipe! Beautiful pics too
how do I find the actual recipe? sounds amazing and healthy
There should be a link to the recipe in the last paragraph. Let me know if it’s not there!
