super snacks

while at ward's over the weekend i realized i needed to stock up on snacky foods that are really healthy so that when i find myself starving at work i don't eat the cookies sitting on my desk... so i picked up a couple of raw revolution bars (which totally rock) and as an experiment, i decided to buy a belly bar too. turns out it's really tasty! 'burstin' chocolate' (deep chocolate orange)... mmm mm.

these things have 200% folic acid, 100% iron and B6, and lots of other vitamins, which is awesome for days when i forget my prenatal vitamins. they also have 8g of protein, wee!

of course i decided to research the company before i posted anything about it, and i'm not totally in love with them... basically a couple of marketing-industry vets with a good idea they knew would "sell"... but they did pack a shitload of nutrition into a really tasty bar, meant for women with annoying cravings vs. a need for health, and i can appreciate that.

on another food-related note, i made the fish broth over the weekend out of a florida mangrove snapper, and MAN did that stink! the house still smells like fish. i froze it and haven't used it yet but i'm thinking miso soup is in order tonight, so i really hope it doesn't taste how it smells. good nutrition shouldn't be painful!
