TREAT YOURSELF THURSDAY

Welcome. Join in with us while we treat ourselves with something special. Tell us what you do to treat yourself or others. What would you dream of having for a treat? Join in by posting your own special treat and then add your url for that post (not your whole blog...just that post) to the Mr. Linky list at the bottom of this post. Then do your best to visit the other sites that have participated to see how they treat themselves.

I love fresh vegetables and when I buy them I truly think it is a treat. I like the fresh crisp crunchiness of them. We bought some delicious organic vegetables at a farmer's market. The radishes were huge as you can see in the ladies hand on the left. The were peppery and crunchy. We also bought some long radishes that were even hotter and some mixed greens, asparagus and rhubarb. Yes a treat indeed.Ya right. You really want a treat? Try this chocolate gelato we had in an Italian restaurant on the weekend. Tita's Italian Bistro in Vernon, British Columbia. Gelato is so much more enjoyable than ice cream. Then following this we had some complimentary shots of Black Sambuca with one of the owners. Licorice flavor at it's best. Those Italians know how to treat themselves.

If you need any help using Mr. Linky just email me from my Email button.

  1. I am going to try Mr. Linky, but first I have to write a blog ;-) Gelato...how I wanted to try some after reading about it in the best seller, Eat, Pray, Love. When visiting Baltimore's Fells Point, there was what I had been searching for.....a gelato shop. I bought a triple cone and loved every bite! I agree....it IS a treat.
