Chocolate and Peanut Butter Pop Tarts

Boy do these grocery stores know how to market products! I ran into the grocery store last week for only one thing. And well, we all know how that goes. The one thing I went in for was NOT Chocolate and Peanut Butter Pop Tarts but indeed, that's what I came out with. For that I have the woman behind me in line to thank. I was in line, resisting the urge to pick up the Pop Tarts when the woman behind me was just as blown away at the genius creation as I was. She, however, did not fight the urge, and when she asked if I saw them, she insisted I get a box too. Well there went my self-control. I had to have a box.

The chocolate graham cracker-like outside is soft and sweet. The chocolate icing on top is sweeter, and the peanut butter inside is the sweetest. The peanut butter could use a little bit more peanut. It is more of a buttery taste. However I really enjoyed these, and would recommend eating them warm, instead of right out of the package. I don't often eat Pop Tarts, but these are good.

Anthony and I celebrated our first anniversary at Lidia's restaurant tonight. This is where we had our first date almost 6 years ago! Oddly enough they sat us at the same table as our first date. Here's a pic of our dessert! I know it's not a lot of chocolate, but it was certainly delicious. 

A big THANK YOU to my sweet mother-in-law for surprising us and picking up the tab. ::love:: 

Annnd... We're Back!

Whew! Hello Chocolate Emergency! Where have you been for the last year and a half? Oh yeah! LIFE! Here's the quick top 10 list of the past year and a half in no particular order.

10. I am now a teacher! This is my dream job. I teach 7th grade English Language Arts. And I never thought I would say this, but I love middle schoolers! Huh! Who knew? This is also the perfect job because even though I am busier than I can imagine during the school year, I can blog during the summer.

9. I bought a new car! I bought a Honda CR-V, and her name is Charlotte. 

8. I am fostering kittens again. I've had 3 litters in the past year. My current litter is the smallest batch I've ever had. They are 3 weeks old. Meet Vinny:

7. As evidenced above, I am still an orange cat lover. Ben is now 4 years old! 

6. My good friend Yasmina and I just finished a 3 day fruit and veggie cleanse. I have not have chocolate for 3 days! Yoi! 

5. Anthony and I are taking our long-awaited honeymoon next month! Palm trees, here we come! 

4. Anthony took me to the Melting Pot for my birthday this year! Does he know me or what?! 

3. I made these:

2. Besides one small pipe bursting in the basement, our home is perfect. Anthony and I still love our little house in Brentwood.

1. Anthony and I got married!

More to come!
