Celebrate Easter with Divine Chocolate

Easter is quickly approaching on April 20th, and as you prepare your Easter baskets, you'll want to include the newest 3.5 oz chocolate bars from Divine Chocolate - 38% Milk Chocolate with Toffee and Sea Salt ($3.99) and Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Truffle ($3.99).  There's also 38% Milk Chocolate with Whole Almonds ($4.89), Dark Chocolate with Whole Almonds ($4.89), 70% Dark Chocolate with Mango & Coconut ($3.99). The 38% Milk Chocolate with Toffee and Sea Salt is my favorite, with the perfect amount of sea salt to balance the sweet toffee crunch. 

Divine Chocolate is co-owned by the farmers of Kuapa Kokoo Farmers Cooperative in Ghana. To learn more about their commitment to fair trade, check out recipes and shop the online store, visit divinechocolate.com.

It's not an Easter celebration without PEEPS®! Whether you are planning to include them in Easter baskets, adding them to your dessert recipes, or eating them right out of the package, you are going to want to check out the latest from PEEPS® seasonal varieties. 

My favorite Easter must-have: the limited edition Yankee Candle PEEPS® Marshmallow Chicks Large Jar Candle ($27.99, 22 oz)! I stumbled upon this fluffy, marshmallow scented candle at the Yankee Candle store last week. The sweet scent reminds me of a mix of marshmallows, vanilla and sugar cookies. 

PEEPS® Chocolate Dipped Mousse Flavored Marshmallow Chicks ($1.99-$2.29) are available in a set of three, dipped in either creamy milk or dark chocolate. They taste great dunked in coffee or alongside iced coffee. 

PEEPS® Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Chicks are available in either creamy or dark chocolate ($1.99-$2.29), adding a twist to the iconic PEEPS® Chick. 

PEEPS® Chocolate Mousse Flavored Marshmallow Bunnies ($1.29-$1.69)

Another one of my favorites - PEEPS® Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Chicks ($0.79-$0.99) are individually wrapped and covered in milk or dark chocolate.

PEEPS® Large Marshmallow Bunnies are packaged individually ($0.99-$1.29) or in a set of three ($1.09-$1.69), adorned with a bowtie and decorative carrot. 

PEEPS® Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Egg ($2.99-$3.29) contains a classic marshmallow chick inside of a hollow creamy milk chocolate egg, wrapped in either decorative blue or pink foil. 

PEEPS® Rainbow Pop ($1.99-$2.29) contains four chicks in yellow, green, pink and blue marshmallow on a stick. 

PEEPS® Peepsters ($3.99-$4.49) feature bite-sized delectable chocolate and delicious marshmallow flavored crème in creamy milk chocolate or rich dark chocolate.

Spring Cleaning with Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59 Cordless Vacuum

Spring cleaning is fun and easy with a Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59. In my first post on the Dyson Digital Slim™ I discussed the features and details, on the vacuum. Now I would like to share my personal experience with using it. This vaccum is perfect for small living spaces, city apartments and dorms. It's easy to carry, go up and down stairs with and store without taking up too much space. Be sure to use the wall mount docking station, or else it's easy for your vacuum to topple over if it's not in a secure place.

The Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59 will takes care of all types of dirt - from hair powder and loose hairs to cookie and cracker crumbs. It's important to make sure you regularly clean the bin and keep the bristles clear of dirt so that the dirt doesn't get clogged. It's great for spot cleaning or when you or decide to have a Sunday cleaning day. 

I love how it works on hard wood floors or on rugs, and can even clean those hard-to-reach spots under the bed or dresser. It's perfect for cleaning stairs since you don't have to worry about dragging the cord. 

I love the versatility of the Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59, as it also transforms into a car vac, which saves a trip to the gas station or car wash for a car cleaning. 

 As for the design, it's sleek and modern and I love the purple wand! Also, be sure to keep your Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59 charged up after each use. I've had the vacuum run out of juice on me when cleaning my bedroom, sample room, walk-in closet, bathroom and stairs all at once. Keep in mind that you are going to have to re-charge if you think it's going to take you more than a half hour to clean. The Dyson Digital Slim™ DC59 is definitely the best vacuum I've ever used, since it just suits my lifestyle perfectly!
