Reese's Pieces Cookies

Target is starting to stock Halloween stuff. I can't believe it's almost the holidays and this time next year I'll have a little munchkin to dress up. I loved dressing up when I was little. Of course my favorite was a princess costume. Did you dress-up when you were little?
In sticking with the Fall theme, I picked up a bag of Reese's Pieces on a pregnancy whim and decided when I got home they would be yummier as a cookie. I used the Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip recipe (omit the chocolate chips and nuts), added 1/4 C of unsweetened cocoa and about 3/4 of the bag of Reese's Pieces. Yummy and festive. I'll be baking them again for Halloween treats.


In other news, I'm just now fitting into maternity clothes. I had no idea how comfortable pregnancy jeans could be. I don't see why women don't wear these all the time. No buttons or zippers...heavenly comfort. I also bought some cute yoga pants which I immediately change into when I get home from work.
I have an ultrasound next week to find out if the baby is a boy or girl, cross your fingers that the position is right and the tech will be able to tell us. So exciting!
