I gave away a few pawns, but looking ahead i was able to see combinations to recover the material. Unfortunately, the time it took me to do that cost me the game. How do you think this would play out?
(if you'd like, flip the board as i'm playing black)

I beleive that after 38.Nd4 a draw is the most probable outcome

I don't think you ever really had a chance until he played 35. Rxf7?
35. Qxf7+ Rxf7 36. Bxf7+ Kf8 37. Bd5+ Ke7 38. Bf6+ is easily winning.

I would probably be a little frightened to play Black there.

^ If you're playing black then I would be frightened to play white.
jaja well.. after black exchanges knights, it's a bishop against rook endgame. So i think black can win here.
Do the queenside majority and protected passed pawn not bother you?
I find those 2 connected passed pawns coming up even scarier (plus much better king position)...
