O Happy Day!

I have discovered what is quite possibly the best snack...ever!

Many of you know I can no longer eat chocolate. :( It's horribly unfortunate, since it happens to be one of my favorite foods! And chocolate lovers know that white chocolate just doesn't compare.

Well last night, I got an intense craving for s'mores! I convinced Tyler into taking me to a nearby Walgreens to buy white chocolate and graham crackers. There was no white chocolate, but something even better: coconut white chocolate. Oh, yes, I just had to try it. Turns out it's one of the tastiest things known to man.

Combined with a fluffy marshmallow and some toasty graham crackers, it creates a snack almost as enjoyable to dark chocolate. Almost. But it does just fine. :)

Two of my dearest friends are in Kenya right now, on separate trips. Sierra and her team are able to keep us up-to-date via their blog. It's been wonderful reading about their experiences!

Tali, however, has very limited internet access. Except for one group email, I haven't heard from her at all. Her mom and I have been anxiously and obsessively waiting for an email these last two weeks. Well, today, I received a personal email from Tali! :D :D :D

Thank you to those of you who helped with my encouragement project for Tali. She opened her manilla envelope with all of your notes and love and said it was encouraging beyond words.

Well, I'm off to make a s'more with the last chocolate square...

Seems like a perfect night for catching up on some reading and hitting the hay early!
