Look how cute the little package of tea is! Thanks so much, Sarah! I can’t wait to try it.
——————————-
Now…for another review of what is quickly becoming my favorite place.
Since I had to go get Sarah’s BSI prize the other day, I decided to try another truffle from The Chocolate Spike.
This one is called the Spikey Rum Truffle and is a dark chocolate truffle with a hint of rum. The outside is completely covered with roasted cocoa nibs.
I have a feeling I’ll try every one of their confections pretty soon – it’s hard to resist!
I do NOT have pictures of this, but I will tell you the story :)
One of my coworkers bought a box of mixed candies from The Chocolate Spike, and invited us all to our little conference room to share them with him – score! So, we cut most of them into pieces so we could all try the different flavors, and I guess a little piece of chocolate fell onto my pants. No biggie, right? Too bad I didn’t notice until I stood up to leave the room. It fell right where my legs were crossed (another reason not to cross my legs, Caitlin?), and kind of melted into my khakis. I can’t believe it – it’s a good thing my office is pretty small and we joke around together all the time – it was pretty funny!
Oh – and I got to try the Mango Lime truffle Sarah!!! You’re going to love it – great choice.
Since I participated in the amazing chocolate fest this afternoon, I didn’t eat my planned snack.
Nick and I went to BodyPump tonight and it was packed! We were hoping there would be less of a crowd tonight because there was a Tech basketball game, but I think it was even more crowded than last time. It was a good class though, and a good workout.
Dinner was leftovers of my one-pot wonder, plus some steamed broccoli.
As soon as I finish blogging, I’m off to work on a presentation I have on Friday and then watching LOST …. probably with a bowl of popcorn :)
Do you watch LOST? Do you like this season so far?
I’m now a Featured Publisher for FoodBuzz!!! I am so excited about this – I love FoodBuzz! I love that you can find tons of stuff on their site just about food and other foodies and restaurants…it’s like my dream come true.

Breakfast today was good, as usual.
I try to make my eggs look good in the pictures….it’s hard since the eggs are white, on top of white grits, in a white bowl….
At least they taste good :)
A big bowl of kiwi, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries
and some milk, which I apparently did not take a picture of!
I’m so glad today is humpday already! I only work one more day this week, so today is actually my Thursday! I have something kind of exciting on Friday (which I won’t explain yet) but I’m super excited and nervous and ready for it be here already!
There may also be a special blogger something happening on Friday that I am even MORE excited about!!! But you’ll have to wait to find out :)
Lunch today is the last of my black bean burgers with some steamed broccoli and the last of my corn soup. Sad to see it go, but it sure does hold me over well!
I have definitely “eaten a rainbow” today and am proud of it! I try to eat pretty healthy most days, but there aren’t many days when my meals are so colorful :)
Dinner was leftovers from Sunday night ,with a different veggie on the side.
Chicken Paprikaahh, Scalloped Russet and Sweet Potatoes, and Broccoli
(Yes, that is a paper plate – we ate in my office right after work since we had a group thing to go to tonight)
I’m so excited to see the recipes using ORANGES for this week’s BSI!!! Great choice, Mara!
Don’t forget to stop by Beadie’s and enter to win some good lookin’ bbq sauce and a surprise gift she hasn’t explained yet :)
