. kisses for you .

March 16, 2013 by Amanda @ .running with spoons. 151 Comments

Today is a special day. Why? Well, because it’s Saturday for one, and because I’m currently sitting here enjoying a bowl of one of my all time favorite cereals for another…

Cinnamon Crunch

… or I guess I should say a bowl of a healthier dupe of one of my all time favorite cereals…

Cascadian Farm

I came across this box of Cinnamon [not-Toast] Crunch by Cascadian Farm on one of the [mandatory] trips that I took to Whole Foods while I was down in Hawaii, and I seriously couldn’t wait to dig my spoon into it. I would have tried it while I was on vacation, but I decided that flying an open box of cereal across the Pacific probably wouldn’t have been the greatest idea I’ve ever had. In any case, it was totally worth the wait. I also managed to snag a box of Nature’s Path toaster pastries while I was over there, but have yet to try them…

Toaster Pastries

It never ceases to amaze me how many products you guys have down there in the States that we don’t get up here in Canada, and I have to say that there’s nothing more frustrating than seeing something delicious on your computer screen and not being able to get your hands on it. Sad face.

That being said, I hope you guys won’t be too upset with me for showing you these…

Macademia Kisses

And these…

Coconut M&Ms

Before my trip to Hawaii, I remember hearing the occasional whisper surrounding these fabled treats, but I had never actually come across them in stores… whiiiiich might explain why I kind of, maybe, might have packed my suitcase to the brim with them. Okay, so that might be a slight exaggeration, but I did throw in a couple of extra bags for you guys. That’s right! It’s time for a small giveaway! Why? For no other reason than to say thank you for continuing to read Spoons 😀

. – . – . – .

There are three ways you can enter (leave a separate comment for each):

1. Tell me about your favorite vacation (mandatory).

2. Like Spoons on Facebook.

3. Follow me on Twitter or Instagram and leave a comment with your ID.

That’s it! You have until midnight on Monday (March 18) to enter, and I’ll be announcing two winners on Tuesday. Each winner will receive a bag of kisses and two bags of M&Ms.

Love you guys, and good luck!

    My favourite vacation was my trip to England in 2008. I was pretty deep into my ED, but staying with family that loved and cared for me, gave me more hope that I’d had before, and through sheer determination that I was going t enjoy this holiday, I relaxed around food, ate what I wanted and had a fantastic time! I will always cherish that holiday (:

    I love the Cascadia Crunch cereal. Just when I thought Cinnamon Toast Crunch would forever be out of my life, I found this little gem. All the fun, none of the chemicals. God bless Cascadia Farms.
    My favorite vacation was 12 days in Croatia, in a house overlooking the Adriatic Sea and surrounded by rosemary hedges. Yep, hedges made out of rosemary.

    Fellow Albertan here so do I ever understand those frustrations you get! 🙂
    On that note, my favourite vacation would have to be the trip I took a couple years ago with my girlfriends to Cuba. I had too much fun with them and would looove to take another group vacatiion with them. However, one of my many trips to the mountains with my boyfriend definitely rank close second. There really is no better place to be for me than the Rockies. .

    WHAT. I have never seen those kisses before but am now dying to try them.

    My favorite vaca was this past year to the Outer Banks– it was the first time I’d ever gone and I loved every second of it. We are going back this summer for the 4th of July and I can’t wait!

    My favorite vacation? Other than the yearly visits home (I really don’t want to call them vacations, although they’re the nicest feeling in the whole world), it’s most probably last summer’s trip to Rotterdam, where I had a meeting with some of the friends from all around the world with whom I’ve studied abroad (in Rotterdam) for six months. Amazing five days!

    Favourite vacation was spending time in Spain (especially in the summer) on my uncle’s farm. It was absolutely amazing and the fresh fruits and vegetables were divine (there is nothing better than fresh figs on a hot hot day).

    My favorite vacation was when my family drove up to Michigan. We basically sat on the beach all day, went to tourists shops at night, and had ice cream at least once daily 😀

    Om nom nom – what a fantastic giveaway! My favorite vacation was the first trip that Dan and I ever went on – to Cape Cod, Boston, New York, and Chicago, all in one week. It was absolutely amazing. And that is when he told me that he loved me for the first time 🙂

    Oh that new cereal looks delicious!! Oh well, you know, I am totally used to see all the delicious stuff on my screen without having the chance to taste it. We do have maybe 1/8 of the stuff you guys get over there so I can only drool and dream about it 🙂
    Ok, but I DO enter the giveaway, if that’s allowed as a Swiss. My fave vacation is Spain. Nothing fancy, but the place with the house (from Sandro’s parents) and the peace I feel when I am there is just absolutely marvelous. I follow you on Twitter and Facebook, I don’t have Instagram…..Happy Weekend Girl!!

    I’ve heard so many things about Hershey’s Kisses, but here I can’t get them.
    My favourite vacation was a travel to Tunisia with 2 of my friends … sun, sea, hot guys and many complications that made our whole experience just more fun. 🙂 Did you go to Hawaii with family or friends? Sounds like a dream place!
