Need a fix of chocolate and peanut butter??

Here's a very cool treat for you (yes and you can share it with your kids if you are that nice!) ... the perfect combination of chocolate and peanut butter without the serious sugar of candy.  This brand of peanut butter makes different varieties but on those days that fruit just isn't cutting it ... you know those days that you crave the comfort food of your youth?  Get a jar of Peanut Butter & Co's  Dark Chocolate Dreams http://ilovepeanutbutter.com/... just like peanut butter it's easy to spread, goes great with bananas, apples or you can melt it for those ice cream treats!  There are no hydrogenated oils, no high fructose corn syrup, no gluten and only 7 grams of sugar per 2 Tbsp.

I have a thing for chocolate and peanut butter ... I remember those days in college that my suitemates and I would hit every vending machine in the dorms trying to find peanut M&M's!  Oh how we loved them! Especially at 3:00 am!  However those grams of fat, sugar, and fake colors don't appeal so much to me anymore.  So, I found this jar and even though I kind of feel a little guilty eating it ...  (but not so awful that I might cry when I see the wrappers in the garbage the next day) it truly hits the spot!  Yes, I'm a recovered SUGAR ADDICT!!!

Cheers to Chocolate and Peanut Butter!

Welcome to my Blog!

Thanks for visiting my blog ... I decided to write it as there were many concerned friends and family that needed to learn about this phase of my life - leading up to surgery on February 8th. I have now had the surgery and am recovering here at home. I love all your comments! They make me smile and I am so truly inspired by them! I can not believe how much support there is out there...it matters so much to us! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
