FIRST GIVE-AWAY!!!!
Posted on Oct 29, 2009 under Uncategorized | 226 CommentsHi Sweetie Pies!
Hope everyone has had a FABulous couple of days! Like usual my days have been jam packed – my plan when I started this blog was to post daily – but as you can see I am struggling to do so! Work and School have been insanely busy lately so once things calm down I am hoping to post a little more regulary 
I have some very exciting news (a.k.a EXICTING GIVEAWAY)….. so if you can’t contain yourself, scroll down to the end of the post!
I must say I have had some pretty good eats this week! Last night I re-created my very Greasy Spoon resturant – for some reason I have been craving a grilled cheese like no other. When I was at the grocery store the other day – I decided to try a product I have been eyeing for a while:
This isn’t a product I buy on a regular basis but when craving’s call – girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. There were definitely more than a few ingredients in the list that I wasn’t a big fan of – but at least there was no dairy, caesin or gluten. I grilled up some ezikiel toast, spread with earth balance and roasted some butternut squash fries and I seriously felt like I was at a greasy spoon! It was glorious!! It’s nice to know that even when you are committed to living a healthy lifestyle you can find ways to recreate your old favourites. So I challenge everyone to try and re-create an old (maybe not so healthy) favourite of yours and make it into a healthy dish that you feel good about consuming!
Tonight’s din din was also lovely I had a big salad with topped with a veggie burger and because I have decided to try to turn every vegetable known to man into a fry, I sliced up some zucchini, tossed them in olive oil and roasted them at 400 for about 15 -20 minutes - success! Better than greasy french fries!

I love your blog and I want the recipe for that lovely cashew baked dish you made for Thanksgiving! Also love that you are Canadian!
And grilled cheese and butternut squash= brilliant. When I was little I was always jealous of kids who got Kraft singles and would eat them at my friends house. Funny because my family always bought really good cheese.
Adding you to my blogroll, and you are on my twitter! Oh and it’s more of a chocolate addiction than a coffee addiction. Every day around 3 p.m. I NEED chocolate. Just a bite. I even hunt down stores with samples sometimes. Then all is right in the world.
October 30th, 2009 at 9:28 am
That grilled cheese above looks INCREDIBLE! One of my most favorite foods! I don’t have a coffee addiction, but I am obsessed wtih chocolate. Nothing is too sweet – EVER. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, SERIOUSLY!!
October 30th, 2009 at 9:31 am
severity of my addiction: I love chocolate more than boys!
October 30th, 2009 at 9:34 am
I’m currently on cup 2.5 of the day of coffee…. even though I should be cutting back in prep for the NYC Marathon!

October 30th, 2009 at 9:38 am
I love chocolate like any girl, but I really ADORE coffee. It is seriously vital to my existence. It is the first thing I grab each morning and I keep drinking it through out the day. Not just for the caffeine, but the taste! I recently bought a French press and it has only made the addiction stronger.
October 30th, 2009 at 9:39 am
entry 1- Chocolate is sooo my weakness. I literally have at least 1 chocolate thing a day, haha. I’m excited for winter because that means HOT CHOCOLATE!

Hi! I just stumbled upon your blog and I’m so glad I did. That grilled cheese sandwich looks so yummy. And your giveaway is amazing! I will be linking back to this on my next post.
I actually don’t have an addiction to either of those things lol.. but I’d say I don’t mind having chocolate I just never have cravings for it really
October 30th, 2009 at 11:20 am
my addiction is so bad that i can’t keep chocolate in the house. and if i do i have to hide it which often results in chocolate surprises!

I love coffee because it warms you right up, it’s relaxing and you can doctor it up in so many fun ways. Great giveaway!!
October 30th, 2009 at 11:47 am
Hey fellow Canadian! I’d give up a double-double to try a glo bar! My favourite drink at Starbucks is a nonfat half-sweet espresso truffle – ’nuff said! I’m following you @livelaughgrow, and tweeted you at the same.
October 30th, 2009 at 12:53 pm
I like coffee, but chocolate is my real addiction – at this time of year, I rarely go a day without a bit of it (although often that means a cup of hot cocoa).
October 30th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
I love everything about coffee: the aroma, the taste, the ambiance of a coffee shop, the best way to start my day. And the best way to end a day – chocolate! (I confess I am an addict to both but what awesome vices!)
October 30th, 2009 at 1:35 pm
I’ve been in love with the coffee and chocolate since I first tried the coffee Jocolat bar (by Larabar). These flavors blend together so well and they make me insides smiles =)
October 30th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
My coffee addiction…I roast my own coffee beans…I buy green beans, roast them, grind them up, and brew them in my espresso machine. That way I get uber fresh, tasty coffee. Americano with a splash of soy milk and a squirt of agave is my fave. Great giveaway!
October 30th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
I’m a huge chocolate and coffee addict. Chocolate is a staple in my diet, and is the one food I’d never give up! Coffee has to be around, with a three-year old and 8-month old baby! The combination of both is totally divine.:-) YUM!

I am definitely addicted to caffeine!! Yesterday I didn’t have anywhere to go but I walked a good 10 minutes to Starbucks just to get coffee.. yeah, not a healthy obsession
I should invest in a coffee maker! And chocolate!? Don’t even get me started… I am obsesssed with dark chocolate- I can eat it any time of the day, on almost anything!! <3 <3 <3 I just polished off a bag of dark chocolate hershey kisses actually!

Severity of my chocolate addiction? Hm. Well, I have, at all times, 4-5 huge bars of organic chocolate in my freezer, and I may or may not have eaten a whole one for snack yesterday
October 30th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
Anything chocolate/coffee combined is amazing!! I so hope I win
I just tweeted about your contest as well!
October 30th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
My addiction: a Starbucks Venti Mocha Frappucino Light – 7 days a week, 365 days a year! And yes, Starbucks is open on Thanksgiving & Christmas….Needless to say, this is a costly addiction so I always request Starbucks gift cards for birthdays & Christmas. Would so LOVE to win the Glo Bars! To begin another addiction, no doubt!
October 30th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
I was wondering where everyone was getting these intriguing bars! Sweet giveaway! My addiction? Oh bother! I have a massive sweet tooth so I can’t remember the last day I went without a little chocolate (or alot of chocolate! haha). PLUS. I have coffee every morning…what else gets a college kid out of bed at 6:30AM on a freezing cold morning?! I’d love to try these bars!

Severity of my addiction- I have a chocolate stash in my desk drawer. During midterms, I went through a *lot* of it. I’ll have to restock when all the candy goes on sale after Halloween!
October 30th, 2009 at 5:50 pm
I am surprisingly not addicted to coffee. I get my caffeine from having a diet coke every day at lunch, and if I don’t, I get a headache! I also HAVE to have chocolate every single day after lunch. My life isn’t complete without it. I currently have a bag of chocolate chips and hershey kisses in the fridge. YUM!
October 30th, 2009 at 7:22 pm
Thanks for the heads up about the giveaway. I must have coffee and chocolate EVERY DAY to feel human.

yayyyy globars!
I recently started to have *cravings* for coffee each morning and bought a french press. Now I can’t go without my daily cuppa! I also enjoy having a square of dark chocolate each night. I shouldn’t…but it’s a hard addiction to beat lol. Beats a smoking addiction!

October 30th, 2009 at 9:06 pm
I drink coffee every morning! AND eat chocolate at lunch and dinner every day!
October 30th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
I’m ready to confess… So, I tried to go with no caffeine over Memorial Day weekend. I comitted to Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday of that week. I felt lethargic and drained during those four days. I only get about 4 hours of sleep due to my packed schedule. I have come to the realization that I may not be able to attend school and work, study and be a mommy without caffeine. Sad,
I know. I eat a diet of whole, real , natural foods and I don’t smoke or drink. But, I just can’t give up that caffeine!
October 31st, 2009 at 12:07 am
Example- today my sister was driving and I turned to her and said “amanda..you love me right?” and she says “you want coffee?”
It’s probably unhealthy, but I LOVE IT!!
October 31st, 2009 at 6:04 am
i’d say i’m definitely more addicted to chocolate than coffee, but i do love both!!!! dark chocolate is soooooo deliciously amazing, and just the thought of it puts a smile on my face, and can put me in an instantly better mood
always need to end my night with something sweet!
and for coffee, while i don’t feel like i “need” it, i do find myself craving it more now that it’s getting colder outside! love the comforting feeling it brings
October 31st, 2009 at 6:37 am
Every morning I always start the day with a cup of joe. I drink coffee for its taste so one cup is fine for me.
And every day I always have a cacao chunk, it’s yummy and has its benefits so can’t feel guilty about that!

I wouldn’t say that I’m addicted to coffee, but chocolate is a different story. I like to have it every once in a while and really savory the flavor- dark chocolate is the best, but I also really like cacao nibs!
I need to try Ange’s Glo Bars, I’ve heard amazing things!

I am a coffee addict! This morning I woke up and made coffee, but before I had a cup, my husband walked in the door with a latte for me. He said, “Oh, sorry I should have called and let you know I was bringing home coffe.” Then I say, “No problem, I’ll probably still drink the coffee I made.”
Love it!

I’m a big chocolate fan! I wasn’t really into coffee so much until I started working at Starbucks. After 2.5 years there, I was more than hooked! It was a serious dilemma leaving that job, knowing that I would also be leaving my discount behind. I’m actually about to go buy a full-price coffee from them now as a bribe for myself to get some studying done

I love chocolate and caffeine so much, especially when mixing them together–I brake at all Starbucks locations!
October 31st, 2009 at 9:41 am
Coffee is not an addiction for me, it’s a delicious indulgence. It’s a moment to breathe, to plan for my day, to taste chocolately sweetness and hazlenut. I look forward to it in the morning, and occasionally after I finish teaching for the day. It makes a shopping trip like a holiday. It’s warn and toasty and packed full of antioxidants. A slice of heaven here on earth!

I have the chocolate and coffee addictions both down. Luckily I just love the taste of coffee and can drink quality decaf so I don’t have to suffer through caffeine headaches. chocolate oh man, anything and everything dark chocolate, especially fruit covered in dark chocolate, I’m a lost cause.
October 31st, 2009 at 10:21 am
As a new lawyer, I have to say that coffee is a MAJOR part of my day! I admit that sometimes the thought of a big, hot cup of coffee helps get me out of bed on those mornings when I want to sleep until 11. Thank you for the giveaway!
October 31st, 2009 at 10:27 am
I LOVE coffee. If I don’t have my morning cup I definitely get a headache. But I also just love sipping it!
October 31st, 2009 at 10:42 am
I try to keep my coffee addiction in check by only having one cup a day, but i LOVE chocolate. I have a friend that does not like chocolate and I think shes crazy

My coffee addiction is definately stronger than my chocolate addiction , although I do crave and require both at times.
My coffee addiction however , well lets put it this way i sleep walk to the cupboard and coffee maker and basiclly sit and stare off until the coffee is brewed, then it’s like i start to come alive. Mmmm coffee.
October 31st, 2009 at 11:43 am
I have always been much more of a tea fan, but my coffee addiction began once I started college and a new Starbucks opened up at the campus library
October 31st, 2009 at 1:32 pm
I became addicted to coffee when I began working at a local coffee shop named after the Patron Saint of Coffeeshops, St. Drogo! When I was learning to make shots of espresso, the owner had me drink each shot until I learned what it should taste like. I never had more than a sip of coffee before that day! My life has changed ever since…my husband has tried to get me to switch to tea, but it’s helpless. As for chocolate…I’m a woman! What do you think! I find little reasons to treat myself to peanut MnMs..even if there’s no real reason I deserve a “treat”. But I feel better about myself if I think I earned it.

I really can’t live without caffeine very easily… I get caffeine withdrawal headaches if I attempt to go without my usual 2-3 cups of coffee everyday. Also, a life without my daily piece of chocolate joy? What a sad, sad world that would be.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway! I’ve been dying to try out Angela’s globars.

Coffee keeps me warm every morning – americanos are my favorite!
October 31st, 2009 at 4:52 pm
I need my coffee caffeine in the morning in order to get out the door. If I don’t drink it, I feel sluggish all day long and often get headaches.
October 31st, 2009 at 5:06 pm
I love coffee and chocolate but I definitely cannot go without my coffee in the morning! In fact I’ve had lots today and I’m drinking some now in the evening!!
October 31st, 2009 at 5:06 pm
I threw myself a “chocolate party” for my birthday this year featuring a variety of hand-made chocolates from the local chocolatier. I also provided several different roasts from a local coffee shop to my guests. My company knows to give me Starbucks gift cards for my birthday every year.
October 31st, 2009 at 7:04 pm
Oooh I love chocolate, but coffee is my real love. I think they are the best when paired together–like in a mocha!
October 31st, 2009 at 10:29 pm
totally love chocolate!!! definitely a weakness of mine.
October 31st, 2009 at 10:35 pm

November 1st, 2009 at 8:44 am
I usually enjoy a nice cup of coffee as I start up my computer at work and type my way through all my emails. It gives me something warm and fragrant to savour as I decide how to put out fires, and perpetuate information throughout my company. On special days though I treat myself to something from either Second Cup (Maple Lattes are wonderful) or Starbucks (I adore the Pumpkin Spice latte), sadly this doesn’t happen nearly s often as I would like
November 1st, 2009 at 8:45 am
i am equally addicted coffee and chocolate – i start every morning with a mug of black coffee, and i end many evenings with bitter dark chocolate. can’t live without the good stuff in life!
thanks so much for this giveaway!

I don’t go a day without chocolate! I need me some Vitamin C!

Because coffee is just wonderful!!! I love it (even more than chocolate – is that possible?)
November 1st, 2009 at 1:26 pm
I can’t go through my day without a cup of coffee! Hot chocolate’s a great alternative when I can’t get any coffee though. You know what’s even better? Mocha! Best of both worlds, really.
Would really love to try some of those Glo bars. I’ve heard such rave reviews about them!
November 1st, 2009 at 1:34 pm
My addiction is pretty bad, seeing how I just read about the giveaway and started drooling! And I’m actually sitting here drinking coffee and thinking about how chocolate would taste so great with it right now! I’ve always wanted to try Angela’s Glo bars. Thanks for the opportunity!
November 1st, 2009 at 1:39 pm
I definitely love chocolate, especially chocolate covered dried cherries. I have to be careful when I have them in the house.
November 1st, 2009 at 1:41 pm
I cannot live without chocolate! I’m so addicted and really can’t stop eating the Halloween candy! One bite of chocolate is all it takes to turn me into a ravenous chocolate-eating monster–I’ll say I’ll just have one piece, but it ALWAYS turns into at least 5 more pieces!
November 1st, 2009 at 1:56 pm
I definitely cannot live without chocolate! Coffee headaches I can do with, but what fun is life without a little sweetness??
November 1st, 2009 at 2:10 pm
Chocolate gives me a mean energy kick!
November 1st, 2009 at 2:12 pm
I love love love chocolate, I add chocolate extract into my green monsters to get a chocolate kick in the mornings! mmm! I really hope I can win some of the glo bars!
November 1st, 2009 at 2:16 pm

I must drink coffee every morning and a square of dark chocolate is my favorite way to end a meal. I love coffee-flavored treats as well!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:03 pm
Hello!
As many of the other posters have said already – I LOVE CHOCOLATE TOO!!! And even though I am pretty high energy already I do enjoy a java kick every now and then!!
And what better way to combine the love for chocolate and coffee with the love for health and well being all in one quick stop – GLO BARS!
Thanks for the chance at your giveaway!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:09 pm
after trying 100% PURE dark chocolate, I am addicted to them so much. I can’t go back to other 80% or 70% choc anymore. PURE ones are soooo good!
I like eating small square a day!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:09 pm
MMMM I love chocolate! I’m currently injured and can’t really do exercise of any form…However, I’m still eating tasty treats at the rate I did when I ran x miles a week
Health glo bars that feed the chocolate hunger are perfect for me!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:12 pm
Chocolate and I.. well.. we’re BFFs. Chocolate has been there since I was a wee little las and I’ve shared some great moments with him, and he still has my heart as tastiest treat on the planet. When he’s around.. I don’t share and it’ll be gone within a day or two. nomnomnomnom. hehe
Coffee is something a bit more knew. My first taste of coffee was when I was 7, and I got a itty bitty sample of Starbucks frappuchino. Although I don’t drink it everyday, when I need a quick pick-me-up, some filter coffee is the best.. Especially when it’s cold, stale, and nothing is mixed into it. YUM! (Yes, I am weirdo, lol.)
November 1st, 2009 at 3:13 pm
i’m a die hard chocolate AND coffee lover. gotta have them at least once a day… usually a couple times, and frequently together!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:14 pm
OMG….what a wonderful surprise I received when I clicked on your web….BEAUTIFUL!
Enjoy!

My addiction to coffee is actually a little pathetic. I RAN OUT of coffee on tuesday and had zero time to pick up some more. So I decided I would try and stop drinking it cold turkey. Well, on Thursday at work my boss asked me to bring him a coffee. I drank it by accident.

I am truly coffee addicted. I drink between 6-7 cups a day!!!
November 1st, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Thanks for the giveaway Krissy! I drank coffee in 1st year univ. because I basically thought I had to (wierd eh). I didn’t realize how crappy it made me feel and I stopped by 2nd year. Now 4 years later, I drink half a cup (diluted to make a full cup) every morning if someone else is brewing it only, which is about every other day. Chocolate on the other hand, is something I can’t live without… chocolate in any form, please!
November 1st, 2009 at 4:01 pm
Ooooooh! Love chocolate! I try to keep it as a “treat” though!

Coffee and chocolate always puts and keeps me in a super fantastic mood. I like to stay that way. Great giveaway.
November 1st, 2009 at 4:16 pm
I need my morning coffee, just a little before I run, then a little more on my way to work…Voila! I am good for the day!

Two kids under 2 1/2…need caffeine
(and chocolate!)..enough said!!
November 1st, 2009 at 5:18 pm
I am a total chocolate addict! I put chocolate in my oatmeal like a year ago, and now I cannot have my daily oatmeal without chocolate in it. Just the perfect way to start my day out I think! Thanks fo rthe giveaway!
November 1st, 2009 at 5:24 pm
I love the way coffee smells, but don’t care for the taste. Chocolate, on the other hand…can’t live without it. I can smell it from a mile away. I will be walking in the city and will get a whiff of chocolate, but my boyfriend never smells it!
November 1st, 2009 at 5:47 pm
I love chocolate!
I was pretty addicted to chocolate thinking I had to have it everyday. However, lately I just haven’t been craving it. So I guess I’m not addicted anymore!
November 1st, 2009 at 5:52 pm
I am such a coffee addict! I have 3 cups a day! Delicious!
November 1st, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Oh, and you are on my blog roll.. awesome contest!
November 1st, 2009 at 6:04 pm
I definitely have a chocolate addiction! Coffee, I do adore but I’ve at least got a handle on that.
Thanks for a great giveaway!
November 1st, 2009 at 6:12 pm
Ooooo chocolate AND coffee! Mmmm..considering this semester consists of me waking up super early every morning to teach 20 first graders..that explains why I am obsessed with coffee! During those really tough days, I snack on some chocolate..it keeps me sane
!
November 1st, 2009 at 6:14 pm
i would love to try these bars, they look great! i’d link back to you if i had a blog, and follow you if i had twitter, but i’m not on either!
November 1st, 2009 at 6:48 pm
me: wow, this coffee is terrible.
friend: you know you don’t have to finish that, right?
me: yes, yes i do — sorry.
November 1st, 2009 at 6:52 pm
i love coffee so much that the starbizzle people literally know my order immediately. its kinda amazing actually.
November 1st, 2009 at 7:23 pm
I have to have something with chocolate almost every day and if something is offered to me and it has chocolate in it…there is no willpower to turn it down!
November 1st, 2009 at 7:49 pm
Where should I start??!! haha I’m addicted. I need my timmy’s coffee before my afternoon class, and even so, I sometimes manage to fall asleep (coffee in hand, on the table in front of me). I went on a weekend retreat and the person in charge of food didn’t bring coffee since she’s not a coffee drinker, and didn’t bother to let me know! I feel asleep during morning discussion…. so coffee in the morning is a must for me! And chocolate, well I usually wait until mid-afternoon for that!
November 1st, 2009 at 8:14 pm
i loveeeeeeeeeee coffee, and choc. occasionally. im more of a cheese/savory over sweets, but sometimes just gotta have that choc!
November 1st, 2009 at 9:16 pm
I love coffee… have it every morning – and if chocolate’s involved that’s even better!
November 1st, 2009 at 9:30 pm
I eat dark chocolate EVERY day!! Not even kidding. I am very addicted but completely fine with it

November 1st, 2009 at 10:15 pm
I love chocolate and love healtjy ways of having it, like these bars.
Good luck with the blog.
November 1st, 2009 at 10:18 pm
Before I do anything else in the morning (brush my teeth, use the bathroom, etc.) I head straight for the coffee pot! I even have one of those coffee pots with an alarm, so I set it the night before so the coffee will already be brewed by the time I get up.
November 1st, 2009 at 10:50 pm
I love coffee! It gets me through the day. One cup a day for me.

Chocolate and Coffee addictions!? I buy CHOCOLATE COFFEE. For Real. Target sells Chocolate Fudge Brownie Coffee. Every morning:) And then another cup of coffee in the afternoon. And always chocolate after meals. (Just had a mini hersheys) but dark chocolate is my true love.

I eat chocolate EVERY SINGLE DAY. No doubt. The darker the better but I’ll take any sort. I heart me some coffee too! I drink it almost on the daily! Mmmm… Can’t wait for my cup of brew tomorrow morning!
November 2nd, 2009 at 2:39 am
I have loved coffee since I was little! My grandma always used to save me the end of her cup and that is how I became addicted =) I don’t overdo it, but I can’t live without it!
November 2nd, 2009 at 5:23 am
I must admit it: I do not drink coffee. Does that disqualify me? But I love chocolate so much I’d actually leave a comment here in hopes of winning! If my body would allow me, I’d have chocolate in every meal. Some days I even manage it.
November 2nd, 2009 at 7:03 am
coffee addiction is fierce! very grouchy without it

Ohhhhhh, chocolate: I love you drizzled over bananas, I love you studded with dried fruit, I love you dipped in almond butter – hell, I even love you straight up! But, when you put on that dark, subtle coffee flavor, you really drive me wild!!!
November 2nd, 2009 at 9:41 am
Um I am seriously addicted to chocolate! I have to consume it in some form every day
Coffee is delicious, but not as amazing as anything with chocolate!
November 2nd, 2009 at 9:53 am
oh my I LOOVE chocolate. The rush a good, quality piece of dark chocolate gives you is unlike any other. Mmm I want some now!

Coffee and chocolate together?! Are you kidding me? The perfect flavor combination – my only real addictions. I’ve pretty much given up sugar, white flour, saturated fat, you get the picture – but there is no substitute for my morning coffee or my after-lunch dark chocolate treat!
November 2nd, 2009 at 9:23 pm
Let’s just say, I can’t remember the last morning I did NOT have coffee, which is probably a very good thing!
My chocolate addiction is a funny thing. Sometimes it strikes hard and without warning, other times it’s nowhere to be found, even around that time of the month!

Sad but true I almost always choose chocolate over sex. And I’m slowly trying to wean myself off my daily cup of Joe for a healthier cup of green tea. It’s not working very well!
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:09 am
My chocolate addiction is severe. I feel empty inside if I don’t get a bite of dark chocolate a day.
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:10 am
I HAVE to have coffee every morning. I’m not AS addicted to chocolate (I love it, but can survive without it!) whereas, without coffee, someone in my path will surely suffer!
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:13 am
Severity of my chocolate/coffee addiction? I can’t function without them! And the fact that they go together so well is just a huge plus.

the only thing better than coffee and dark chocolate is…putting them together!!
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:29 am
My addiction to chocolate is so bad that I hide my ’special’ chocolate from the kids. Every night after dinner I sneak a little piece of my dark chocolate. Makes me very happy. I start my day with coffee and end it with chocolate:)
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:33 am
In my house at all times, I must have dark chocolate and coffee. That way, I’ll never be without.
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:52 am
I love chocolate and coffee, especially together. The flavors just complement each other perfectly!

I go through times when if I don’t have chocolate right now, then I feel like I’m going to have a panic attack, hahaha
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:43 pm
I have coffee and/or chocolate almost daily. Actually, I may have some chocolate every single day. I feel so much better when I am able to enjoy a delicous piece of chocolate after work!
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:52 pm
I don’t drink coffee anymore (I used to be an addict) but I do love chocolate and coffee flavored treats!!!
November 3rd, 2009 at 8:02 pm
My chocolate addiction runs deep!! BUT… I can’t have dairy, so I don’t get delicious chocolate very often, so I get excited every time I see chocolaty goodness that is dairy free!!
PICK ME!
