Daily Delish – Charlize Theron and GLO BARS

Categories:

Daily Delish

You know that J’adore commercial where Charlize Theron makes you feel like an awkward 14-year-old? Because she’s SO incredibly, unattainably sexy? I don’t think I could be that sexy if I had round-the-clock lessons and a new set of ankles — I tend to trip…a lot. That little necklace she throws to the ground? Yeah, I’d trip over the beads. If I could just have the sexiness she carries in the TIP OF HER PINKY finger my life might be a little different…but I digress.

But even though I can’t strut like Charlize, I can still FEEL like Charlize. How? I’m so glad you asked!

Created by the ever-so-talented Angela, own of Glo Bakery (and blogger behind Oh She Glows), these little babies can make anyone feel sexy. Some of you look confused. Let me break it down for you…

From the Glo Bakery website:

Do you dream of mouth-watering S’mores roasted over the campfire? Well, now you can enjoy one in a delicious Glo Bar- and it’s vegan to boot! Roasted vegan marshmallows, handmade chunky vegan graham crackers, dark chocolate, and cacao nibs come together to create a Glo Bar filled with love and adoration.

Ingredients: Oats, brown rice syrup, chunky homemade graham crackers (spelt, water, sucanat, canola oil, agave, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, baking powder), natural peanut butter, non-dairy dark chocolate, vegan marshmallows (corn syrup, beet sugar, corn starch, corn dextrose, carrageenan, soy protein, vanilla flavor, titanium dioxide, salt), crisp rice cereal, flax seed, cacao nibs, pure vanilla extract.

Homemade graham crackers? Dark chcolate? MARSHMELLOWS? Now just try and look me square in the eye and tell me marshmallows aren’t sexy. I DARE YOU! And did I mention each glo bar is wholesome and healthy? So you won’t just feel sexy, you’ll look it.

These bars really do taste as good as they sound (and look!). I love that they are soft and practically melt in your mouth. The pillowy marshmallows are making my mouth watering just thinking about ‘em! With each bite, you feel more and more of the love. I’m tellin’ you, they are definitely the most delicious way to feel sexy. I urge you all to buy some — you won’t regret it!

If you need, me, I’ll be practicing my strut.

What foods make you feel sexy?

Fashion Friday

Fashion

The snow has returned with a vengeance! I guess Father Winter isn’t ready to pass the torch — so scratch what I said yesterday about “spring being right around the corner!” I now feel like the town idiot ;)

I have a lot to get to today, so let’s dive right in, shall we?

I’d love to stay and chat, but I have a mile-long to-do list that is calling my name. I’ll be back later for the Daily Delish ;)

What is everyone up to this weekend? Tonight the Mister and I are going to go see SHUTTER ISLAND with my parents – has anyone seen it yet? Looks like it might be a nail-bitter!

NOTE: Next week we’ll have the FASHION FRIDAY CONTEST – so get your photos ready and start emailing them to me!

Thankful

Happy Thankful Thursday!

Let’s close our eyes, step away from our “to-do-lists” and take a moment and think about what we are thankful for this week.

I’ll kick it off. This week I’m thankful for…

the sunshine, even in its scarceness

good books (recently finished Goldengrove, Belong to me and now reading on mystic lake.)

big ideas and how quickly they inspire

yummy flavor combinations

the extra sleep the Mister and I have been getting by going to bed early (makes all the difference!)

dry shampoo — cuz sometimes a morning shower just isn’t gonna happen

my family — and the fact that my grandma is OK after her emergency hospital visit this week ;(

SPRING – and that it is JUST sround the corner — can you feel it?

my city, Cleveland, and that we’re all giving the middle finger to Forbes

What are you grateful for this week? Why should you be giving thanks?
