Happy Birthday Jango!!!!!

She's 3 years old today and she's doing much better.

Go A's!

I held back blogging about them because of superstition, and because I so badly wanted them to finally win a division series. THEY DID IT!

The best part about it for me - Tom & I were there!!!!!! I barely remember watching the celebration on the field. I just remember everyone going crazy in the stands. My favorite moment of the game (besides the final out), was chanting Marco Scutaro's name before and after he put the nail in the Twins' coffin.

I love this team. Bring on the next round!

Chocolate Review 4 - Denman Island Simply Dark Chocolate

We're back from our fabulous trip and I bought some local Canadian Chocolate for review. Let's start with the good - Denman Island Simply Dark Chocolate. I found it on Granville Island.

"Just chocolate, for purists" - description on Denman Island website.This is a deep and satisfying tasting chocolate. A bit sweeter than most dark chocolates, yet smooth and strong enough for the most critical dark chocolate lover. I regret not purchasing one of the other versions - like the hazelnut, or raspberry. But maybe I'll run into it somewhere in the states (Pharmaca in Berkeley for me).

Most of all buying this chocolate is not only tasty, but good for the environment. As an organic chocolate, you don't run the risk of pesticides in your sweet treat.

Price: $2.50 CAN
