Irresistibly Sweet Award

I was awarded the Irresistibly Sweet Award from Jessica over at one of my new favorite blogs, Book Loving Mommy! In order to accept the award, I will be passing it along to six other bloggers, and I must confess to four guilty pleasures. I have a horrible sweet tooth which I could never indulge as much as I would like, so this is going to almost all be about food!

Here are my four guilty pleasures:

• Dark Chocolate!  Not the kind that lists sugar as its first ingredient, but the kind that lists chocolate as its first ingredient. I’m very picky about my chocolate and hate to waste calories on less than excellent chocolate!
• Books! I know, I know, we all love books. It’s a guilty pleasure for me because I have two young children (15 months and four-years-old) that need a lot of my time and attention. Plus there is my husband, my household to run and a million other things to do. Reading is something I do only for me that benefits no one else. I usually read after the kids have gone to bed and while my husband is watching basketball/football on TV.
• Gourmet cupcakes! I have tried making these things and they NEVER taste the way they do at my favorite bakery. I really only have them twice a year: at Valentine’s Day and on my birthday. Sooooo happy tomorrow is Valentines! If you are ever in Miami, you have to try Mischa’s Cupcakes. They are crazy good.
• Vanilla Rum Cake!  If you live in South Florida and you have been in a Latin/Caribbean bakery, chances are you know and love vanilla rum cake. It’s the best, puts traditional yellow cake to shame!

Now, to the six blogs I want to award this too:

1. Stories from my Bookself
2. All Things Supernatural
3. The Secret Life of an Avid Reader
4. Mommy Wants to Read
5. Into the Morning Reads
6. My Bookish Ways
