A Little Slice of Heaven (aka Honey-Caramel Macadamia Blondies)

I did it!  I succeeded in baking a small slice of heaven!  (At least, that’s what my coworkers told me.)  After feeling somewhat crushed and demoralized by one of my patient’s family members, I needed a little confidence boost.  So, I decided to bake.  And, since I had some heavy cream in the refrigerator, I knew I needed to make something incorporating caramel.  (What else was I going to do with that heavy cream?)  Besides, after a rough evening at work, making a batch of caramel is the best way to de-stress.  Caramel is kind that way.  It’s such a precise, all-consuming project, my mind doesn’t have time to wander or worry about other things.  (And, believe me, I needed to be fully distracted from what had happened at work.)  The only problem was figuring out what would go well with the caramel.  So, after careful consideration, I decided to make Honey-Caramel Macadamia Blondies.  They’re rich, but absolutely delicious.  They melt in your mouth like any good caramel treat should.  But, most importantly, baking them helped me feel a little better about myself again.  Thank heavens for baking therapy!
