Vacation in Raw Chocolate Land


From What About Bob:

Dr. Catherine Tomsky: Take a vacation.

Dr. Leo Marvin: I’M ON VACATION!

Vacation!

A whole week of not writing essays, not rushing from class to class, and not opening a textbook. On Friday, I celebrated as soon as I got home:

Raw Chocolate Melties

I’m grateful for all the variation ideas people have shared in the comments, from Angela’s maple melties to Ann Claire’s Strawberry Melties, to Albizia’s Molasses Melties. Then there’s my newest-favorite meltie variation: Cinnabon Melties.

Along with my melties, I ate some whipped cream:

Healthy Vegan Cream

After snapping the photo, I added a bunch of Pom seeds to the bowl of cream. (By the way, do you know how hard it is to pour with one hand and take a non-blurry photo with the other?!)

    Amen for vacations!!!! 😀 And the best part? We only have a week or so of classes before Christmas break!! 😀 Well, if you have about the same schedule anyway.

    My best vacation was the marching band trip my Freshman year of high school. It was 2 weeks of busing all over the New England states with 100 of my best friends! 🙂

    “By the way, do you know how hard it is to pour with one hand and take a non-blurry photo with the other”–

    YES b/c I have tried it many times (unsuccessfully…LOL)

    Best Vacay ever? I’d say last year over the holidays in Aruba b/c Skylar could walk, talk, and build sandcastles with me 🙂

    And this year…hope to be the best one yet! We leave..very soon!

    Best holidat I’ve ever had would be either a trip back home to Scotland 3 years ago or the trip to Utah to ski for two weeks over Christmas on our way to moving to Australia. The snow was spectacular making it high on the list of holidays, but on the other hand it was fantastic going back home for a bit. Gah I can’t chose, I’ve loved every minute spent in Franch and Spain as well as Vietnam. (Like you I’ve lived all over :P) How about you, what’s been your favourite holiday or place to live?

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      Ooh definitely Italy! Wait, maybe Thailand. Or maybe the cruise I went on… yikes, I didn’t realize how hard this question was to answer! 😉

  9. Namaste Gurl says:

    Oh, you got me WAY obsessed with those melties– particularly the coconut ones 🙂 Love em’!

    I wish I had all next week off. Unfortunately, my college only gets thursday and friday off– bummer, huh?

    Best vacation:
    Cuba on my honeymoon!
    Cuba is a stellar place to visit…the culture, scenery and people are so beautiful.

    Coming in a close second; my trip to Thailand last spring.
