Mr. and I went for a ride today and on the way home we both had several mini chocolate bars. Mr. had more than me. He chose Krackle and I chose Mr. Goodbar. Chocolate is a good recovery food!! :D

I dunno about chocolate bars after a workout but chocolate milk is my nearly ideal recovery food.
You've got your liquid/hydration food group, your protein food group, and your chocolate food group :cool: add coffee (make it a mocha) and you have the caffeine food group. :rolleyes:
I'm pretty crazy for the chocolate from Mr. Theo in Seattle. Their single source "origin" chocolates are soooooooo good! Just chocolate and sugar. MMmmmMMMM. http://www.theochocolate.com/products/
I love really good European hot cocoa. In a GIANT latte cup. With LOTS of mini marshmallows.... mmmmmm.......
I just made some T.J.'s organic cocoa. My microwave works and I can find it ;)
Knot.. Thanks for the recommendation on the THEO chocolate bars. Found a store in Mount Vernon on their website list -- I'll check it out this week. I'm always in the market for a new chocolate to try! This is probably one of the many reasons I'm not dropping the winter weight yet!
PS.. My vote is also for the chocolate milk post ride -- excellent stuff!
We need to plan a TE Seattle ride to Theo, do a factory tour, then ride back.
I need to find out if Theo has bike racks. There won't be room for more than a couple bikes at Free Range's rack, and they'd probably rather keep that open for their customers.
Or we could just lock all the bikes together.
TIM TAMS:eek:
