Qbel Chocolate Review

by Nicci on 02/17/2010

Last week I received a package of Qbel’s chocolate wafer rolls and bars to review.

Here’s some information about Qbel’s All Natural Chocolate Candy.

No Artificial Colors
No Artificial Flavors
No Preservatives
No High Fructose Corn Syrup
No Hydrogenated Oils

My all time favorite had to be the Mint Wafer (above)

Chris and I split the crispy roll….yum.yum.yum.

I love the variety of flavors they carry and they have a new Vegan Dark chocolate bar…sorry, no picture here (The first bar I devoured).

Qbel’s can be found at Whole Foods and Sprouts stores. I was excited to see The Cupboard, in Denton carried these bars too.

Check Qbel’s website for a store near you!

Baked Oats to Warm The Heart

by Nicci on 02/11/2010

Today is a SNOW DAY here in Texas! Meaning my office is closed and hopefully Friday too, in order to have a fabulous 5 day weekend! I only hope that the snow does not ruin any weekend plans.

This weekend Chris and I will be attending the Vagina Monologues. The Vagina Monologues is part of an amazing global movement called V Day. www.vday.org.

It addresses violence against women and children. We went to the play last year and it was humorous but also some monologues were sad.

Extra Bonus: RENT is being performed on stage by our local community college. Chris and I are going with a group of friends on Friday. I love this musical… I’ve got all the songs on my ipod, cd in car and the movie.

I tend to break out the RENT soundtrack when I have parties…all the straight people tend to leave. Wait! maybe that’s why I have few straight friends attending my parties.

What to eat on a snowy day…something warm.

Breakfast:

Baked Oats with Banana

Missy always pops up when she smells something cooking in the kitchen.

Agenda in the snow:

30 Day Shred- (I don’t run in the snow, so no 2 miles)
Post office – mail packages and V-day cards
Grocery store
Cleaning

I might as well take advantage of this day off and get things rolling.

Anyone stuck indoors or having to work in the snow? What’s your snow story?

Vitalicious asked me to share their new giveaway with my readers. I know diamonds are my best friends!

While Vitalicious’ nutrient-packed, 100-calorie VitaTops and VitaMuffins are the perfect gift all on their own, they are sweetening the deal with a genuine, diamond-studded Tiffany Pendant valued at $800! This is going on through February in honor of National Heart Month and Valentine’s Day:
