I’m book obsessed and hanging out at Barnes & Noble to browse and gift shop is literally a beloved hobby. I love grabbing my Peppermint Mocha and just lingering amidst the books! This week I toured my local Barnes & Noble as part of a blogger event to showcase the latest holiday gifts and chat about the upcoming Discover Weekend. While there, we sampled the latest S’Mores Chocolate Chip Cookies…..
