Two! Two rave reviews! Ah-ah-ah-ah!

(For best effect, the title should be spoken with a Count Von Count accent.)

Review 1: I ate the Lemongrass Chicken Lean Cuisine meal for lunch today, and at first it wasn't as good as I had hoped. But the more I ate of it (cooled and stirred up a bit), the more I liked it. When it was gone, I was sort of sad. I don't think it's better than the rosemary chicken, but it's definitely up there with the chicken in peanut sauce. And it leaves the salmon in the dust.

Review 2: Chantico. Oh my. This is the chocolate addict's equivalent of mainlining heroin (not that I know anything about that). At almost 400 calories and over 20 grams of fat for six ounces, it's definitely not something I can have very often. But when I've got a serious chocolate craving, this is where I'll be headed.

And for those of you who are as hung up on correct pronunciation as I am (I wouldn't even order it by name--I had to ask the barista how to say it first)--it's shawn-TEE-co. And it's divine.

UPDATE: So divine, in fact, that I didn't notice until just now (20 minutes after walking into the office, and after I had waved hello to at least 5 co-workers) that I had dripped it all over the front of my shirt. Guess who won't be leaving her office again this afternoon? Good thing the departmental meeting was cancelled.

Sigh. I really should just start wearing a bib everywhere I go. :)
