I can’t tell you how excited I was for this… And it left me in so much agony, I couldn’t even blog about it without residual GI pangs shooting back through my body. Now, a week later, I’m here to say I am through with the seasonal soy bevvies. Sad. Anyone tried the coconut milk ones? Yeah or nay?
Ever since I tried Justin’s chocolate peanut butter cups I have been craving them for dessert. Every. Single. Night. It’s kinda a problem. Well, only because I can’t afford to continue the habit. I bought two packages on my first grocery trip. I had them back to back nights. I then went out of my way to take another trip to Whole Foods a few days later because those interim nights’ desserts were pathetic in comparison to the chocolate-y peanutty goodness that Justin’s treats possess.

Lab: Critical value for patient Y, their PTT is 121 [yikes!] Pharmacy: The medication order for patient Z needs clarification,… Read more >

I never thought an Asian inspired spring roll could taste so authentically Italian. It seems weird, right? But all it took was one bite and I knew I had made something particolarmente delizioso. [fyi, that’s Italian for effing delish] Don’t judge these guys by their appearance. I’m not exactly proficient in rolling spring wrappers. As far as flavor goes though, these are dead on. I promise.
