Give Away!!


So today I was completely flat out sleep all day kind of sick. I woke up and couldnt breathe, throat hurt, the whole nine yards. Gross. Full blown head cold. I slept most of the day and luckily Im feeling way better. All I wanted was pure comfort today. Chocolate and peanut butter! Yum yum! So on that happy note, I thought that I would start up my first give away with some amazing chocolate and peanut butter products!!

I had to include some Barney Butter, my new obsession. I also though I would include some MaraNatha Dark Chocolate Almond butter. It is smooth, ultra creamy and chocolaty. Its fabulous on just about anything. Since its getting chilly I thought that I would include some Chocolate Chai tea from Zhena's Gypsy Tea. Its a complex blend of roobios, cinnamon, cloves, cacao and many other ingredients. Its super comforting and delicious!!


So here's how to win...

1) Leave me a post letting me know your favorite comfort food or drinks
2) Link this contest up on your site and let me know you did so
3) Become a follower
4) Add me to your blog roll

Each item will earn you one entry.

Contest will end on Sunday Nov. 15th at 9am. Hooray! Now go and get yourself some chocolate and peanut butter!

    What a thoughtful giveaway! I have never tried Barney Butter amazingly enough.

    Probably to many comfort foods to count! Broccoli, any type of nut butter slathered on brown rice cakes (with cinnamon and rice cakes must be Lundberg) or with some dark chocolate, banana and carob smoothies, roasted veggies, oh how I could go on!

    I don't know if I have a favorite but anything that's warm and in liquid form is pretty good. Things like tea, coffee, or tomato soup. Delicious.

    Does wine count as comfort food? Just kidding. Either potato soup or mac and cheese!

    Hi Chrysta! How are you? I really enjoy reading your blog. You have great recipes, and I hope to try them out sometime. Congratulations on your weight loss and continuing to live a healthy lifestyle. You look really beautiful in your picture.=)

    Right now, I would have to say that my favorite comfort food is flavored peanut butter on a mini pita pocket. What I do is take Dark Chocolate Dreams, White Chocolate Wonderful, and Mighty Maple, and spread them around on a Joseph's mini flax pita pocket and smoosh both sides together! I hope that doesn't sound gross. It is really delicious, especially if you stick it in the microwave for a few seconds. Mmm, yummy! =)

    I would love to win your giveaway because almond butter is my other favorite nut butter, especially chocolate, but I can't find the MaraNatha one anywhere.=(
