- Yeah, we're working on keeping healthy in our skinny jeans, and oatmeal is indeed a part of the menu for many of us. But if you eat it often like I do, wouldn't you like to learn from a nutritionist some ways to nutritionally bling your oats including vegan friendly options? You're in luck, as I bring to you oat-tastic expert Dave Grotto of "101 Foods That Can Save Your Life."
And after Dave enlightens you on the benefits of things like non-dairy options and flax, three of you lucky BISJers can win two boxes each of Quaker Organic Instant Oatmeal in Maple & Brown Sugar. Oh yes! Quaker does organic too, and if you like the Whole Foods 365 Maple Spice, this one runs neck & neck. Read more to enter. It's easy!
- Wanna see some of the creative ways I eat my oats. In fact, I don't eat oatmeal just for breakfast, I eat it for desert too. Behold pictures of my oatified concoctions: Toasty Sweet Pumpkin Pleasure, Crunchy Banana Walnut, Snickerlicious (shown above), and Dulce De Cocoa.
- I went to visit the Scharffen Berger chocolate factory on Tuesday, and zOMG! not only did I eat some of the best chocolate around, I learned so much about chocolate making and how Scharffen Berger operates. I totally {heart} these people even more! Check out all the cool pictures, and discover fun things like what you can do with cacao nibs, why chocolate melts in your mouth, and how to make your garden smell like chocolate.
- Steaz has a new line of organic Iced Teaz, and the cans feature pictures of the farmers from the fair trade countries Steaz buys their teas from. I LOVE it! And, here's what I thought of how the teaz tasted.
- And because I just love taking pictures of fabulous food I eat in restaurants, here is the latest from Piacere, contemporary Italian Californian fusion. The Sex & the City gals would totally hang out here. The best was this creamy garlic appetizer with garlic toast, and oh yeah, it tasted as good as it looks!
