I love Pinterest. Never before I have been able to find or be led to so many great ideas, recipes and blogs...all from one place. It can actually be addicting. 

I attempt to justify my slight obsession by being productive with my "finds" by actually making some of them. 

I happened to have all of the ingredients on hand for these healthy sweet treats so I had to make them. The verdict? Perfection! Jeremy and the boys devoured them. They  taste so much like a chocolate nut brownie ball, that you'll easily forget they're made with fruit and almonds. Jeremy isn't typically fond of dates and actually told me he tried to tell himself he didn't like them even *while* he was still chewing his first bite. Lucky for me, that didn't work, and he loves them. 

Definitely being added to the list of favorite recipes!
