Mom’s Favorite Chocolate Treat
Yes, I admit it – I am addicted to chocolate. I figure that there could be worse things to be addicted to, and although I do *try* to limit my chocolate in-take, I have to admit it is hard. Recently the health food store near us started stocking one of my favorite chocolate bars which is now widely available in the United States- Green & Black’s Organic Chocolate. I know I should be more skeptical about all the “health benefits” of dark chocolate – but this company makes me sold – as I rationalize every little piece away. Their Maya Gold bar is especially good, as it has a hint of orange & spice. So when you need a little mommy treat, you might want to try one of this mom’s favorites – because a little does go a long way (honestly).

Hi Mom!
Go ahead and enjoy – there’s nothing wrong with a little bit of chocolate everyday. Especially when it’s clean, dark, organic chocolate. This week I’ve been working on a mind-bending project, one that has been a real stretch for me. I had reached an impasse and suddenly realized I needed chocolate. I know from experience that there is something in dark chocolate (especially with the right spices) that helps your brain connect better. Sure enough, after just 2 small pieces, I realized the more efficient way to tackle the project and had a breakthrough. Whew! Thank goodness for cacao!
Green & Black’s is a fine company, and led the way with organic and ethically traded cocoa. We started Wei of Chocolate to break new ground as well – with organic, vegan dark chocolate enhanced with herbs, spices & flower essences, designed to balance both body and mind. We’re a young company with a lot of heart and love making chocolate that helps people take a break from their busy lives, and savor the space between two thoughts. I hope you get a chance to try some someday soon.
