The Pampered Princess

This is a simple, every day treat that you can enjoy any time.  I like chocolate, but I enjoy it the most when it’s special. 

There are tons of chocolate delights out there that can be enjoyed any time: mocha latte, brownies, Hersey bars, chocolate kisses… the list goes on and on. 

I’ve recently discovered a chocolatey delight that is worth savoring when you want to have an extra special treat on an oh-so-ordinary day.  It sort of mixes two of my favorite flavors (chocolate and coffee).  I’m referring to Starbuck’s Expresso Truffles.  You can buy them for $6.00 or less at your local retail store.  I picked mine up at the local Target store and boy am I glad that I did.  One truffle is just the right amount of sweetness after dinner.  I love them and if these are your kinds of flavors, you will too!

GIFT IT!

You can put a bow on a bag of these for a ready-to-go-any-time gift!  Also, feel free to add this to any of the gift basket ideas shared in my other posts.

There is nothing quite like a nice quiet evening at home with a glass of your favorite wine and the love of your life.  Add a plate of various cheeses and crackers to really compliment the flavor of the wine.  My love and I enjoy Magnificat with Baybel and Baby Swiss cheeses coupled with good old every day Wheat Thins.  Red wine is most commonly sipped at room temperature, but we love ours slightly chilled. 

Get this - you can enjoy this treat for $25 or less!

Gift It!

This is another easily gifted treat.  You can easily fill a gift basket or bag with the wines, cheeses and crackers of your choice.  Add Hersey Miniatures for a hint of chocolaty sweetness.
