so it’s now been a whole six weeks since quitting sugar and the chocolate cravings have been, up until now, kept safely at bay.

then thanks to garance i spent a full hour trying to find an online store that will deliver some blocks of chocolatey goodness by the mast brothers to my address in australia. the thought of the almond and sea salt combination had me dribbling on my keyboard.

is the idea of spending $50 + shipping on 5 blocks of chocolate completely crazy? a craving taken too far? sadly i can’t see it through as no one ships outside of the united states. *tears*

• • • feeling great, have more energy, yoga has improved, bla bla bla… but can’t help craving these…

 

• • • when i should be having these…

these wild rice patties have just made my weekend agenda. how good do they look??! might try adding some seeds and currants to experiment with it a bit. thank you fresh365

i have been dying to try mast brothers chocolate but am yet to find it anywhere locally. this video by cool hunting does nothing to dampen my desire.

hey you! yeah i’m talking to you two cute, bearded, chocolate brothers. start shipping to australia!!

using a combination of this recipe, this recipe and with a few modifications, these cinnamon raisin bagels turned out really well! the process is very labour-intensive so i have to admit it’s far easier to go and buy some from the shops. the taste (and subsequent wheat-induced stomach ache) was definitely worth it…
