Heavenly

Have you had one of these? OMG! They're heavenly - for real!! The Skinny Cow Heavenly Crisp candy bar = YUMM-O!
I was STARVING as I shopped for items for dinner at the grocery store yesterday, so while waiting in the check out line, I grabbed one of these little bars. I have to admit I was skeptical, because I'm not really that thrilled with Skinny Cow ice cream bars. The Heavenly Crisp candy bar is delicious, however. I got the milk chocolate one and it literally melts in your mouth. And who can beat a candy bar that has 3 grams of fiber in it and is only 110 calories? It's a nice afternoon snack with barely over 100 calories and a candy bar that will actually keep you full thanks to the fiber. LOVE IT!!

Romantic Getaway

My husband and I are planning a very special trip to the Monterey/Carmel area in October. I'm a planner by nature, so I'm starting to think about our itinerary already. Does anyone have suggestions for:

• hotels
• restaurants
• things to see/do
• a place to get a good cup of coffee
• any misc. tips

True Colors

My grandma used to say that people will always eventually show you their "true colors." As I continue to get older and (thankfully) wiser, I see just how true that statement is. I have been reminded of this a lot in the last six months as I've been by my best friend's side as she has gone through the motions of ending a five year relationship, gaining insight about the true colors of people who were in her life - against her better judgement, losing the father figure in her life, and gaining inner strength.
So, when I came across a quote I wrote down a long time ago that talks about the measure of one's character, I thought it fitting to share. It reminds me of the hard, cold truth and lesson in life I've had to learn about people....

"Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good."
