Ok, now say it out loud. Say it again, but this time listen. Ahhh. Funny, huh? Well not too long ago I was at my first Tweetup—oh yeah, when Twitterers meet in person— at the Red Rock Café in Mountain View and I was hungry. It was after my Wednesday morning Nia class and I hadn’t had my coffee and I needed my lunch. So in addition to my latte and sandwich I got a biscotti. Ya know, you’ve seen them in those huge glass canister. This one was called Chocolate Maniac which I thought was odd because it was blonde and sitting right next to ones that were clearly ALL chocolate. I had too much to carry so I stuck it in my pocket and forgot about it.
Later, near the end of the Tweetup I put my hand in my pocket and was shocked by the feel of plastic, then I remembered it was biscotti. I decided to eat it on the way home. Not the best choice, I’ll tell ya. I should have waited, it so deserved to be savored and not gobbled up between stop lights. It was what I think of as a “normal” flavored biscotti, but had a layer of chocolate on it. But it wasn’t “normal” it was REALLY good. A LIGHT crispy nutty cookie with a thick layer of gooey—but not so gooey as to interfere with my driving—yummy chocolate. After it was gone I was sad because it was gone. I looked at the ingredients and I realized why it was so good. There was nothing in it I could not pronounce. It just had good old fashioned baking ingredients it in. I read the company name and then proceeded through the intersection because the light had just turned green. As I was driving it dawned on me–Naughty Biscotti. How funny. How cute. How silly. How yummy. AND they are local. In Santa Clara. How nice. I like to support local business, so when they are as good as Naughty Biscotti—I am there. I hope you will try some.

Remember, my blog, my rules, this isn’t related to Nia, working out, personal training, health, wellness , or fitness, but, I said that I was the one that would decide upon what fell into that realm. And this could be stretched into an eating-a-treat-with-all-natural-ingredients-is-more-healthful-than-chemicals kind of thing, yes? Get Naughty. Tee hee!
