Ice Cream - Not the Dieters Enemy
Summer is here with its 100-degree heat beating the sweat out of my body. Every time I think of summer and go into the swimming pool, I think about how my mom used to give my friends and I an ice cream treat. Ah, to be a kid again. Oh wait… my husband and I […]
Icing on the Cake
Cupcakes have been a timeless tradition, alongside cakes, for birthdays and baby showers. There is something about the icing on top of a petite circle of goodness and licking the icing off of your lip. Depending on the cupcake, one may not be enough. But then I tried Sprinkles Cupcakes, when it first opened here […]
Ode to the M&M
If my hands get on a bag of one of the best chocolate creations, known as plain M&M’s, there is no stopping me. All over my mother and stepfather’s house there are a variety of the adorable M&M candy men riding in a car, in a fire truck, and sitting on a sofa chair. If […]
A Moment of Bliss
There are moments in our lives where we need some bliss. So this weekend I tried the new Hershey’s Bliss chocolates, going with the travel size, which came three to each package and only a 100 calories.
The Dark Chocolate is a hard square that is heavenly bliss. Dark chocolate is supposed to be good for you, and […]
A peep into memories
Every year, around this time, my earliest memory is watching my father put a whole marshmallow yellow chick in his mouth, while smiling like a little boy that has just received a delicious treat after school. Marshmallow peeps are still his favorite and I still feel like that little girl watching him pop one in […]
100 Cravings
When I get a craving for something, whether it be mashed potatoes or chocolate cake, I have to conquer it right away. After I eat lunch, I crave something sweet throughout the afternoon. I can’t eat a Lean Cuisine and then eat a 300-calorie candy bar, so I needed to find a sugary treat that helped […]
Too Loyal to the Crunch
My love for Nestle Crunch sets my taste buds in a frenzy when the crunch bar is just mentioned. So, when I saw the new Nestle Crunch Crisp Candy Bar, I had to try one.
It has crispy wafers that are stacked with a slathering of chocolate cream filling. The top layer is covered with the […]
Grab a Whipp!
Peanuts trigger my migraines, so when I eat one, it has to be worth it. I love Reese’s Pieces, but the only time I eat one is normally around Halloween. Lately, I have been seeing the commercials for the new candy bar by Reese’s, the Reese’s Whipps. The way the commercial makes the Reese’s Whipps […]
Lindt Heaven
A few weeks ago, there was a plate full of Lindt Chocolates at work. Before all of them were gone, I grabbed the perfectly wrapped balls of truffle chocolates.
I tried the gold wrapped one first. It had white chocolate hard shell with creamy white chocolate in the middle. The red one was even more […]
