I got a wonderful package of Celebrate Chocolate Covered Cocoa Almonds from Celebrate Life Nutrition. I love chocolate. Who doesn't? Celebrate Life Nutrition products are full of fiber and made with organic. They are especially formulated to satisfy your hunger and help you eat less!!!


When I saw the package in the mail box that day, it was 75 degrees (maybe more) in Long Island and I got a few napkins before opening. But the packaging is really cool. Celebrate Chocolate Cocoa covered Almonds package was between two uline cold packs :) You're laughing at me now I know:) I did the same thing, laughed at myself after opening the pack ;) I let them melt in my mouth! Hahaha..
These start with a lightly roasted almond at the center. Each is then wrapped in the same Celebrate Premium Chocolate (73% Cocoa) and a light dusting of dark cocoa powder on the outside. These are formulated special to keep you healthy! Celebrate Chocolate products are chocked full of anti-oxidants and omega-3/DHA. My hubby doesn't like almond but even he loved them. The cocoa gave them a dark flavor that was awesome!" Melt in your mouth slovly, very delicious! Eat chocolate and lose weight!

Did you mean a real car?

Not only does he want a new car, he wants to learn more about cars. I tought he wanted me to buy new toy cars as usual. Oh, no! He was asking about the real ones!!! We spent some time today to search on internet and see some pictures. Oh, he loved it!!!

It seems his tastes range from crossovers like the Honda Odyssey, Kia Sedona to sports like the Mercedes and Mazda Miata.

I woke up to my son's voice this morning:)
-Mommy, are you awake?
Love to hear his voice in the mornings. I hear his voice sometimes calling me, even though he is at school.
Does it ever happen to you too?
Anyway, he told me that he would like to see different types of car photos!
He saw the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro! He fell in love with it! His favorite is yellow Chevrolet:) Then pointed 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL and wanted me to buy it :) I told him that we don't have the money for this car. Then he started to ask the prices first before choosing:)

Our morning was full of cars!!! Kia ,2010 Mazda then we checked Dodge ram out! Here is the link; 2010 Dodge ram review...
He was getting hungry and none of them seemed better than a cheese omlette to him at that moment. I wasn't expecting more questions but no way!

-Why don't we buy a new car mom? You know we need a better car!
-We will, Tiger! Just need more time, OK? He loves that nickname.
-Oh, I understand that! (Actually I'm not sure if he really does).
I gave a BIG hug to him. He hugged me back tightly..
-I'm hungry mom!

We didn't buy a new car today :) But our eyes were shining after seeing those pretty new car photos !!!

Happy Sunday!!!

Baked Apples


3 apples (4133)

1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

2/4 cup water

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 cup crushed pecan

powdered sugar or splenda


I don't know whose bright idea it was to have the numbers on fruit but it is pretty handy.
Especially if I asked my hubby to buy them :)
Peel, quarter and core the apples. Place in a pan. Combine water, cinnamon and orange juice. Pour the mixture over the apples. Cover with a aluminum foil. Bake them at 350 degrees about 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven.
BTW, I burned my finger on the baking pan ...OWWW!

But its worth it!
Sprinkle with powdered sugar or splenda.
Serve with lite whip cream and crushed pecan when cool.
Easy and yummy ;)
