Starbucks Obsessed!

Hey everyone!

So today is going to be an ultimate "white girl" blog entry. Yes, I am confessing that I have an addiction to Starbucks. Now I am from Canada so until a few years ago Starbucks wasn't in every city like it is today so up until a couple of years ago I had never had anything from Starbucks, all I knew about it was that it was pretty expensive. Until that wonderful(ish) summer.


 A couple summers ago I went to summer school to get into an advanced English course to be able to go to university. It was not fun because it was a full day of school but all we did was one single course, so by the end of that summer I did not want to be in another English class for quite awhile. Anyways in front of the school there was a Starbucks and for the first time while attending summer school I had my first drink from Starbucks. 


It doesn't look so pretty now but I can promise you that before the whip cream melted it looked very nice with cinnamon sprinkled on top! 

The first drink I had was a Mocha Coconut Frappuccino which was my favourite drink for a long time.... until they got rid of it. Now, if anything I would get a Caramel Macchiato either hot or iced depending on the weather. Lately though I have been getting their Cinnamon Dolce Latte, which is so incredibly delicious! I only tried this for the first time about two weeks ago and I have had a ridiculous amount since then. It is like drinking liquid Fall as weird as that sounds. It's pretty close to their Pumpkin Spice Latte... only it doesn't have the pumpkin taste. Anyways it is so good, and I feel like curling up and watching movies while I drink it like's a cool day of fall and all you want is a nice warm drink, you know?  Or is it just me? Anyways, it is super delicious and if you have not had it yet do it... or not because you might become addicted like me.

Anyways, I hope all of you have had a fantastic weekend and if you are a Starbucks addict like me let me know so I know I'm not alone. :)

Take care! xxx

Yummy Treat!

Hey everyone!

I have recently discovered a yummy and healthy treat that I think you all would really enjoy. I was just browsing through Home Sense to kill time before going to work when I saw Chia seeds which I have been looking for so I picked those up and went to the check out. I was waiting for the next till to open up and I saw the Chia that I was getting in the line area and I noticed a package that was right beside them. I picked it up curious and read what it was just to pass the time waiting in line, and it sounded like something that I would really enjoy.


It is a product called Banana Coconut Snackaroons and they are absolutely delicious. I have always loved food that contains coconut and I really enjoy the taste of banana so I went out on a whim and got this just to try. Well it was a great decision because as soon as I tried one I knew that this had become one of my new favourite treats.

This is by Laughing Giraffe Organics and contains ingredients such as unsweetened Coconut, Agave, Almonds, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Banana, Vanilla Extract, and Himalayan Pink Salt. Each bag contains about 8 of the banana coconut treats and one of them is a pretty decent size so you would probably only want one for a little dessert. Once these are done I am going to try to find more of their products and see how I find them, and I will let you all know what I think!

So let me know if you have tried these products and what you thought of them if you did! Or if you know of similar products I would really love to know what they are!


Take care! xxx
