Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?

I hope so!!

I am such a guilty blogger...I feel so bad about my very sporadic and lack-there-of posts lately. I hate to say it but it's going to be that way for a couple more weeks :( I don't know if you remember but that exam I had to take for work back in October...well I have to take it again :( NOT FUN! So its on the 24th and until then my life is a crazy stress ball between studying, continuing to house hunt...etc, etc.

To try to make it up to you I have some things to Giveaway!!!

First some foooooooooooood

I like my Yogurt from a Cow
I tried Soy yogurt once...hated it...like it made me gag. So I left well enough alone and stuck to my beloved Greek and maybe even a little regular once in a while.

So now I see this Coconut Milk Yogurt all over the place...hmmm, sounds delicious. Coconut? Love it. Yogurt? Love it. So why not?!Well I think I figured it out...the consistency!!!This was WAY too similar to the soy yogurt...too thin and runny. I just can NOT get past the lack of creaminess! Plus the "vanilla" flavor was way too fake to me. I'm bummed because I have another container of the chocolate flavor at home. I think these may find themselves into a baked good REAL soon. Oh well...can't say I never tried!

Back to my originally scheduled breakfast:

• TJ's Cinnamon Raisin Whole Wheat British Muffin
• 1/2 with light butter
• 1/2 with PB
• 1 sliced banana
• little Raspberry fruit spread on the side to dip the muffin in!
  

There's been a whole lot of Whole Foods action lately with these studying/class nights...I made this lovely beast of a mixture Tuesday night and saved half for lunch todayI just love how I can take bites of things I normally wouldn't eat...like pasta salad...or other "heavier" items. I just take 1 or 2 bites worth and that's all I need.

Giveaway(s)

Well 1 new Giveaway and 2 sort of giveaway "leftovers".

First the new Giveaway...So a little while back the wonderful people at Zoe's sent me a box of their bars to try!! I had never seen their bars at the stores so I was psyched!

Welllll...at first I wasn't crazy about them, which is why it's taken me a while to post about it. I didn't know what to say!

There were 3 flavors I received:

• Peanut Butter Paradise
• Chocolate Peanut Butter Bliss
• Chocolate Delight
  

I usually LOVE anything with PB...but those two flavors were not my fav. I don't know what it is either!? I love the texture...dense with a little crisp mixed in. But the PB flavor was almost too savory? or roasted/smoky?

LOVE the Chocolate Delight flavor though...mmm! Chocolaty, not too sweet...perfect!

I've tried the Choc. PB one again recently and it's growing on me :) I want to love these! So I will keep trying!

But I though I'd share 1 of each flavor with a lucky reader :)I'll send 1 reader 3 bars: "Peanut Butter Paradise", "Chocolate Peanut Butter Bliss" and my fav "Chocolate Delight"

Giveaway Leftovers:

Remember when I gave away the Yo-Plait prize pack and the Fiber One Chocolate prize pack!?

Well 1 of the 3 winners in each case never got back to me...SO that means I'll do another contest for new winners!!

Contest Rules:

1.) Leave a comment about...hmmm...maybe, any of the following:

• suggestion on how to use my coconut milk yogurt (aside from eating it of course)
• studying help!
• your thoughts on the Zoe's bars if you've ever had them

2.) Link back if you have a blog

3.) Maybe add me to your blog roll because that would be totally awesome ;)

I'll pick 3 random winners, and in whichever order they come out will be the order that the person can choose which prize they want!
