Today is National Chocolate Day- who knew!!
Just another reason to indulge in some chocolates. i'm always working on the exact recipes for Juc'd (which is opening beginning of December)and today was not different. i played with lots of tonic ice creams- one of my faves is the Pumpkin Spirulina. i think i perfected it even more today!!
Back to chocolates. My latest chocolate find is Lulu's Chocolates!! if you have not tried you must try them and my fave is the Maca Crunch. i will be carrying them at Juc'd too!!
Back to my cozy day inside with my family!!
enjoy and see you all soon at Juc'd!!

Mason's B-day Weekend and Vegan B-day Cake
It was a fabulous action-packed weekend!!
mason's cousin mathew stayed for the weekend. they always have a blast together!!
he got a TAG map from his mom mom and pop pop. i love educational gifts!!
They loved every bite of real pizza!!
we rode the cabin john halloween train!!
he had his b-day party with loads of his friends at silver star gymnastics. loads of activity and an amazing chocolate vegan cake that all the kids ate up!!
they had a huge moon bounce train with sliding board. the kids loved it.
B-day parties are of course a time to celebrate but they teach kids sooo much more. For example we got these great curious george thank you notes that we will use to thank each guest.
they did the classic parachute. owen loved it too.
finally the amazing vegan curious george cake done by rachel merga!! she is amazing!!
mason with his "girlfriend" sasha!!
i'm grateful to everyone who came to celebrate mason's 5th b-day today!! thanks!!
