CHOC PEANUT BUTTER INDULGENCE :: DAILYBUZZ MOM'S 9X9

This post is brought to you by DailyBuzz Moms. Bringing you the best of the independent web.

I unpacked our last boxes on Friday - oh what a feeling! And you know the one thing I have been hankering to do since we moved in to our apartment, is to bust out my baking supplies and put this kitchen through it's paces. I've had images of decadent layers cakes floating through my mind, so on the weekend, I baked. And I loved the process just as much as the finished cake.

 Something I love here in Canada is the combination of chocolate & peanut butter. There is something about that sweet & salty combo that hits the spot. So a Reese's inspired cake it was. I used a choc cake recipe of my own and based the middle peanut butter layer on this recipe. Delish!

Then it was time to sit down and savour a magazine from home my mum brought me (real paper one...non online!). I've been saving it just for this occasion. Feet up. Cake cut. Ahhhhh. Bliss! Magazines & me time are a real energizer for me.

How do you treat yourself and take time out to regroup? Is it even a priority to you? I'd love to hear your tactics to staying fun and effective in all you do.
