Just wanted to welcome any new readers from my guest post over at Finding Radiance. You can see it here: Finding Radiance guest post. I really like Lori's blog, she's funny and smart and has great input about living a healthy lifestyle.
So in case anyone thought I was a total earth mama from all of my posts about eating organic and all that, you'll be relieved to know that I spent 3 hours last week at the hair salon getting chemicalized (not a real word). In other words, the grey is gone. I spent another hour the next day getting my face peeled and all that good girl stuff.
I snapped this photo yesterday on my way out to a movie. I usually like my hair blonder, but this is closer to my natural color. I love having short hair, it's so easy to maintain!
After the movie yesterday, I hoofed my way to the chocolate store in San Luis Obispo. This particular store makes and sells organic and fair-trade chocolate. I love this place!!! It's called Sweet Earth Chocolates: Sweet Earth Chocolates. And, no, I'm not sponsored by them; I would eat them out of house and home if you know what I mean.
I bought 3 chocolate bars and this bag of chocolate nibs:
I had some nibs after lunch today and they were okay, not super duper. I guess I really just like the straight chocolate.
In case you're a new reader, rest assured that I don't normally just talk about my looks and my chocolate. If you come back to my blog, you'll (hopefully) find healthy recipes and other ideas I have about healthy living. I also love to get other people's input.
Tomorrow I'm attending a local summit on childhood obesity, I am very excited and hope to learn a lot there.

Hehe I just found my way over here from Lori's and I think it's funny that you are talking about chocolate and your appearance. Love it, in fact. ;)
Hi Carrie, I'm a visitor from Lori's blog. That's funny--you don't always talk about your looks and chocolate--not that there's anything wrong with that Haha!
My trainer makes some chocolate cookies and she uses those cocoa nibs in the cookies--very nice. Add a crunch and chocolate at the same time.
I'll be coming back. It will be interesting to hear about the childhood obesity.
I am ignorant--what does fair trade chocolate mean? My trainer lists the same on her ingredients. Is there unfairly traded chocolate?
Hi Debby, thanks for visiting! I'll do a post later today or early tomorrow about what I learn at today's summit on childhood obesity.
Fair-trade means that workers are paid a fair, living wage for the work they do. It allows poor farmers to actually live off of their work. It probably results in a more expensive chocolate, but I think it's worth it.
Also a visitor, one in your neck o'the woods! Post more and more and more, you're a great read!! :)
