WHEW.<\/p>\n

It's been nearly three weeks since I last posted, and a whole lot has happened in that time. We went through the attorney review process on our condo sale (a relief to have made it through\u2014so much paper work). We spent a week in sunny LA with our good friends. We survived the bizarre 72-degree swing from \u201322F to 50F in Chicago that occurred in the short span of five days.<\/p>\n

AND...<\/p>\n

We secured our next home\u2014a quaint house in the suburbs. Yes, we're moving to the suburbs! At the ripe age of 35, this shouldn't feel that<\/em> crazy. And yet it still does. But it also feels so, so right.<\/p>\n

For the last two years, I've repeated the intention, \"I want to live in a house with a yard so that I can feel the grass beneath my feet,\" more times than I can count. It's incredibly exciting to see this intention made manifest.<\/p>\n

Our next home has a spacious yard surrounded by a white picket fence, and lots and lots of grass (which us city folk need to learn how to mow, btw).<\/p>\n

Our plan has always been to be living in Colorado by the time Sloane starts preschool, so we decided to give ourselves a bit of freedom by renting this time around. A few less strings attached than buying, which feels surprisingly freeing after owning for the last decade.<\/p>\n

The house we found is just four blocks away from the house I grew up in, and it's only two blocks from the downtown area. And so this shift away from city living feels a little less scary since it's both familiar and in a (suburban) walker's paradise.<\/p>\n

Also, there's a small 8' x 9' office\/studio space just off the kitchen, something I've been dreaming of for some time, too. I plan to gussy it up all girly like since it'll be all mine (Dan and I have shared a home office for the last six years, and that man is afraid of two things: snakes + decorative pillows). You best believe this future office of mine will be outfitted in all the funky cool decorative pillows I can find. \ud83d\udc81\ud83c\udffb<\/p>\n

Before I fall into my (now) daily daydreamy state in the land of West Elm, I'll leave you with the recipe for these equally daydreamy chocolate cookies.<\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

I mean, break me off a piece of that. \ud83d\udc46\ud83c\udffb Or just knock the whole tower over and get on with it.<\/p>\n

These vegan double chocolate chunk cookies are easy to make and even easier to eat.<\/p>\n

To make them, cream together coconut sugar, almond butter, and vanilla.<\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

Next, beat in a bit of oat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt.<\/p>\n

Finally, fold in heaps of dark chocolate chunks.<\/p>\n

Once the dough is ready, use a cookie scoops to scoop out and tightly compact mounds of it. Plop the mounds on a lined pan (or two), and bake for a super speedy 10 minutes (mayyybe 12).<\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

The cookies will\u00a0barely<\/em> spread while baking, so go with your gut instinct (or baking time) to check doneness.<\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.<\/p>\n

These cookies are the perfect treat for the upcoming heart-themed holiday, but they're also lovely for everyday cookie enjoyment, too. No special occasion needed.<\/p>\n
