Blog Entry... Dark Mint mania!Jul 5, '08 5:37 AM
for everyone
So this is what my Plurk buddies have been raving about.



It's called Goya Dark Mint, and it really is teh love! Right, Badet?

I wasn't hoping to see it last night, while buying some food stuff in our local supermarket. But there it was, sitting pretty amongst the rows of chocolates in the sweets section, luring me to try 'em out.



It's a good thing I gave in. Otherwise, I would have missed out on one really good treat.



Even my husband, who's not a big fan of chocolate - let alone mint, thought it was pretty good.
And for 24 bucks a box, it's really is a steal.
Now I think I need to go back to the supermarket to get a few boxes more. ^-^

Blog Entry... Butterscotch heaven!Jul 2, '08 9:26 PM
for everyone
Allow me to share with you sweet-toothed friends of mine (ahem, Julls, Shevs, and Eps) a piece of heaven that I discovered last week.

They're called Bong Bong's Butterscotch Bars.



Tita Ana, Mum's friend and housemate in London, had her sister sent these all the way from Bacolod - along with several packs of danggit - to Mum. In turn, Mum sent some over to our place.



I'm a sucker for Butterscotch bars, caramel bars, and brownies. My husband fondly recalls that whenever we dine at Max's, he never gets to eat his caramel bar (the ones that come with their chicken platters) because I wheedle him to give 'em to me instead.



These Bong Bong Butterscotch Bars are perfect.
Sweet, but not too sweet to make the husband cringe. Chewy and soft and moist, and they remain like that even after you've stocked in the fridge. I can eat one whole pack in one sitting!

And so dear friends, if any of you are going to Bacolod - or hail from Bacolod - can you be an angel and send me some of this heaven? My (unborn) baby and I will truly appreciate it. ^-^
