So following Michael's instructions I too followed Liann's example and added a books I'm reading section to my sidebar. Being me I also had to add what I'm eating which then lead to what I'm watching and what I'm listening to. Isn't everyone curious about all the minutiae of my day-to-day life? Good! Me too!
I mentioned on Kathie's blog that my friend Angeleen bought me a chocolate and bacon bar (get your own Chris) and some lavender soda. I had to come here and tell everyone how AMAZING they are.
I know you're thinking, chocolate and bacon, what?!!? The chocolate is meltingly smooth, sweet, but not unctuous and the applewood smoked bacon provides a crispy, salty counter point. A perfect balance of flavors and textures. I don't think it will replace their Naga Bar (Indian curry and toasted coconut in deep milk chocolate) in my heart, but damn, it is fiiiiiiine!
As for the lavender soda... I cracked one a little while ago while I was making dinner. OH MY!!! Pour it into a wine glass, (why? because it deserves it) and enjoy the dry, floral flavor. Think really, really good gingerale, but instead of ginger flavor- lavender. I started smiling from the first whiff and sip and haven't stopped yet (my cheeks are killing me).
So check out the links under what I'm eating if you want more information on Dry Soda's Lavender Soda or Vosges Haut Chocolatiers or better yet head down to Whole Foods and get some for yourselves.
Oh and Angeleen? You are one of the reasons I know Jesus loves me.
