    As we have discussed in the previous post about the Vanilla and Chocolate Joe Joe's I have decided to cover the Double Chocolate Joe Joe's also. They are very similar to the Vanilla and Chocolate ones. The difference is the filling. The filling is chocolate. It is extremely creamy. I believe the filling is smoother than in the previous cookies. This is probably my favorite Joe Joe cookie. I think it's because I am fond of the extra creamy texture of the filling. Other than the filling there is no other difference between the two cookies.

    You can find these tasty cookies at a store called Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's is currently only in America. I'm not sure if they plan to branch out in other countries or not. Trader Joe's is only in select States of the US. Trader Joe's is a small grocery market. My family goes there often to stock up on yummy food =).

    The Joe Joe is a cookie similar to the Oreo. It looks and tastes similar to an Oreo as well. In my dad's opinion, they are better than an Oreo. I find there is a slight difference. Firstly, The cream in a Joe Joe is a bit more richer tasting than an Oreo. Secondly, the cookie on a Joe Joe is a bit more appealing. I find that I prefer th Joe Joe overall better. And the happy thing is that Joe Joe's are all natural. Normally Joe Joe's come in a three flavors: chocolate cookie and vanilla filling, vanilla cookie and vanilla filling, and chocolate cookie with chocolate filling. During the holidays they have a limited version with a chocolate cookie and vanilla filling ONLY the vanilla cookie has candy cane pieces.

Just recently, I received a packet of Mint Chocolate Lotion from the dazzling Twisted Blossom

First of all the packaging is darling looking old fashioned and all. Another good thing about it is that fact that it smells like chocolate. At least for me it helps to keep my chocolate urge under control. It gives me a chocolatey satisfaction without chugging down the calories.    

At the moment in fact I am putting it on my hands. *Sniff,* Yummy, It smells so good and it actually smells like minty chocolate!! For the longest time I don't think I can stop smelling my hands. The lotion is rather smooth and soft. I like it and it doesn't give your hands a nasty greasy feel which I cannot stand. The lotion is a light green and for me that makes it cooler because I love color.

Ingredients: Water, Propylene Glycol, Isopropyl Myristate, Stearic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Leaf Extract, Theobroma Cacao (cocoa) Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E acetate), Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Benzophenone-4, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Petrollatum, Sodium PCA, Triethanolamine, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Fragrence, Yellow 5, Blue 1

Sorry for not posting lately! Life has been pretty frazzled and I can't post pictures easily. I have some interesting posts coming up when I do in fact get the pictures set up.

How long do you remember having M&Ms…? Well pretty much every middle-class person has heard and tasted these candy covered chocolates. And most of you would recall then existing back when you were a child.

In fact, the whole idea for M&Ms came from melted chocolate. A few men decided to create a chocolate that that could melt in your mouth but not i your hands. They could not prevent meltage completely, but by constructing a tasty candy covering they  could help prevent it easily. When they were first created they mostly marketed to soldiers in the army (back in WW1 and 2), but when the war ended they shifted marketing to average citizens.

I find M&Ms delicious. I can't say they are my favorite chocolate candy but they do rank high in my mind. I find it a perfect end to a Holiday treat or a hot summer day. 

First of all, looking at the M&Ms, they are so cheerful that I find them hard not to pop in my mouth. I find the candy coating pretty good and I adore the satisfactory "CRUNCH" when I bight down on them. The chocolate is just an ordinary Hershey's chocolate but when combined together with the candy coating they are a smashing hit, for me anyways.

Here is a M&Ms commercial

Well, after watching that, I find that I am dying to have some M&Ms at this very moment.
