fine & raw

Photobucket

I've been thinking about chocolate lately since I started reading The True History of Chocolate, and I remember testing Fine & Raw chocolate at the Brooklyn Flea just before Christmas. It was delish. Made with raw cacao and high in antioxidants, Fine & Raw chocolate is made with agave nectar which is low GI and lower calorie than sugar. More info about this local Brooklyn artisan here.

pillows, charming and affordable


I came across these lovely felt pillows on Etsy from Cheryland. If I had a kid's room, they'd make a wonderful addition at 7 bucks a pop.
