Chocolate Secrets! :)


Want a little pick me up from a dreary day you might be having!? Or maybe your just finishing up a stressful project and your feeling a bit drained? I'd like to share a secret with you that is proven to help! Some delicious goodies, like chocolate that can actually be good for you!! Well sort of, I mean you can't exactly mark my words that anything could possibly be good for you in large amounts. But chocolate has been said to be a brain pick-me-up! Research has shown that chocolate can provide natural health promoting benefits, chocolate contains substances that contain flavonios..Now flavonios have antioxidants and seem to be helping to prevent heart disease, some cancers and even help out with a nasty headache. So I will definitely be picking up chocolate more often! Now if just picking up a chocolate bar, isn't your thing here are a variety of things you can do with chocolate! Hot coco is a good old fashion way of enjoying chocolate, especially if it's raining out or you have a special someone to enjoy it with! A chocolate milkshake is a yummy treat I must say I love but don't get as often as i'd like, so I usually opt for a chocolate cappuccino which is easy to come by if your days are busy!


Today my sweet tooth just couldn't resist and I must say a yummy treat in hand made my day so much better! If you guys have any chocolate ideas of what your favorite pick me up is, share in the comments below!

White is the new black!..for your nails at least!

It's somewhat surprising to spot all the bright colors on the nails of your co-workers, classmates or the celebrity's you see from a glimps of a magazine when your at the check-out stand. Well i'm surprised at least, I mean not to long ago it was a big thing to have the white tip acrylic nails.. Now everyone is going natural with color & I love it! One color in particular that's been standing out lately is, yes you've guessed it..it's WHITE!! White has always been a favorite around my polish bag, and i'm sure most of you have or have had a bottle of white polish at some point. I mean Google searches for white nails have been up 50 percent. So if your still debating on what color to paint your nails next.. Consider that white goes with everything and it's still okay since it's still before labor day! :)
