Subscription Sunday - April Treatsie

If you follow me on Twitter, you probably saw that I gave up sweets for Lent.  This was huge for me - as I see dessert, chocolate, basically any kind of sugar as a must in each day.  During the long 40 days, I found Treatsie, which is a monthly box full of artisan sweets that you wouldn't normally find unless you stumbled upon the sweet shop that they curate from, for $15 a month.  It might have been my crazy longing for sugar, but I immediately signed up.  My first box was delivered on Good Friday, which was perfect timing.  Sunday morning was a-ma-zing.  Check it out:



1.  I don't even remember eating these peanut butter chocolate bites.  They were seriously that good.  Sort of like a butterfinger, but not as sweet.  Perfect amount of sweet and salty.  I opened the package and all of a sudden they were gone!

2.  You guys... this was like a ding dong!  But filled with chocolate cream and covered in dark chocolate.  It was so, so good. 

3.  These lemon sugar cookies were ok.  I usually choose chocolate over other sweets, but had to try these too.  They were really really sugary.  E loved them - she doesn't like chocolate (how is she mine?!).

4.  I loved this idea - bricks of different types of chocolate and a card showing what kind of wine to pair it with.  It reminded me of my wine country weekend a few weeks ago.  (you can read about that here).  I didnt wait to pair them with wine however, and they were delish on their own.

Overall, it was all really good, and totally worth the $15 in my opinion.  It could have just been the lack of sugar taking over, but each thing I tried was nothing like anything I had ate before.  If you are a sugar-aholic or box-aholic like me, check this out!  (If you want to be a sweetheart and use my referral code, here it is)
