Diet...schmiet

Bourbon balls...yeah, not typically part of a New Year's diet. I have been going through my photographs lately, adding product to my new store (of course), and came across this one. I know I've posted it before, but I wanted to post it again. Every time I look at it, I remember how these delectable treats melt and flood your mouth with intense flavor! They are just so dang yummy!

The Pioneer Woman (yes...the lovely Ree Drummond) called this photo, "So pretty. So rich!" I just love her. I know we would be good friends. Call me, Ree! :)

The Pioneer Woman likes me!!!

I just can't contain my excitement! The Pioneer Woman (Ree Drummond) likes one of my photos!!! I think this means we might be best friends, now. Maybe she'll invite me out to her ranch so we can hang out and get to know each other better.

It's true! She selected my photo of bourbon balls from Woodford Reserve as one of her picks in her latest photo challenge. I made it into group #3! It's the 6th photo down in the post. Check it out, and say hi to  my new best friend Ree, while you're there. :)

Week 15 - “I Heart Desserts” Photo Challenge!

This week's I Heart Faces Photo Challenge theme is "I Heart Desserts." I wasn't going to participate this week, because we didn't really have anything sweet around the house, but then I remembered . . . Bourbon Balls! My parents were here for a visit this past weekend, and for fun, we took them to Woodford Reserve. They had never been to a Bourbon distillery, and this is a fun one, so we went! Our tour guide was a little long-winded, but we had fun, and it's always interesting to hear the history behind this industry.

After our tasting at the end of our tour, we just hung around a bit, and my mom bought us a 1/2-pound of their Bourbon Balls . . . yum! Watch out. They're rich! I'm not a fan of the pecan on top, so my husband gets those. :o)
