Here, Have a Cookie [Giveaway!]

Hi friends! How are you? Hope you’re having a wonderful morning <3

Thanks so much for all of the funny comments about my rapping skillz and for the sweet wishes about Foodbuzz festival– I’m so excited for it!

To those of you who guessed the Quinoa Confetti casserole (from Eat, Drink and Be Vegan) for last night’s dinner, you were right 🙂

dinner

With greens, balsamic and POMs.

I had two bowls full- love this recipe! I was definitely hangry after Dance Trance-ing it up, so this hit the spot.

This morning I had to work early, but thought I’d wake up a little earlier so I could make a fun breakfast. As deep as my relationship is with breakfast cookies and cookie dough cereal, you have to switch it up sometimes, ya know?

Pumpkin Perfect Protein Pancakes <—– alliteration whaaaaat?!

The only thing is, someone got a little overzealous with the pumpkin and the little beasts wouldn’t cook or flip!

Good thing I veganized them because I’m eating pancake dough blobs with maple syrup and cacao nibs right now 😉

Still foodgasmic 🙂

Speaking of foodgasms……

How about a giveaway??

Yes, you saw that right.

COOKIES!
Not just any cookies—these are from the Cravory, and from what I can tell, they’re incredible. (Maybe they’ll send me some for *review*? Baha)

I’m really, really excited about this giveaway because one of the founders of the Cravory (Derek, who also goes by “Biggie”), and I knew each other in college. We were in business school together and my room mates were friends with his group of friends. I was so excited to see via Facebook that he’d partnered up with some guys and started this business. It’s funny too because one of my good friends (a squadron wife) is cousins with another one of the founders- small world, ehh??

The idea of the Cravory is pretty ridiculous- you go in, “design” your cookie, and they make it for you. They have a beautiful variety of dough and ingredients.

From their website:

OH my.

-One lucky Fitnessista will win the Ultimate Box Special: 50 of the Chef’s Mix cookies– a mix of signature and new flavors. Best of the best, valued at $89

All ya have to do is leave a comment with your dream cookie combo.

Contest closes at midnight (EST) and the winner will be announced tomorrow morning when I wake up 🙂 (around 8AM EST) They’ve also been so kind to offer a 15% discount to those who’d like to order- just enter “Fitnessista” as the coupon code.

Have an amazing day! 🙂

xoxo,

Gina

    mmm.. My dream cookie combo would have to be Peanut Butter with Dark Chocolate. And maybe some mini marshmallows mixed in. Enough to get the sweet tooth going but too sweet to eat too many (:

  6. Spencer on October 12, 2010 at 4:31 pm

  19. Marissa on October 12, 2010 at 4:45 pm

    *Drooooooool* Those cookies look fantastic! Love their creativity.

    One of my favorite combos is pb&j, and a peanut butter cookie with a blob of jam would hit the spot for me!



  20. Janis on October 12, 2010 at 4:47 pm

    yum! Even if dont win I am going to support those guys, I would love a dark chocolate/walnut with peanut butter ribboning thru!!



  21. Ashley on October 12, 2010 at 4:49 pm

  27. Izzy on October 12, 2010 at 5:02 pm

    Maybe it’s because Fall is all around me, but my dream cookie (at this moment) would be a soft, chewy sweet potato/some-kind-of-sweet-squash cookies with raisins, craisins and pecans with a maple glaze and cacao dusting. HOOOOLY yum. Omg. Yes.

    Those cookies look RIDICULOUSLY good. Oh my.

    My dream cookie would be vanilla cookies with a soft, rich, peanut butter swirl through them and caramel chips.

    I am getting excited just imagining those! What an amazing idea for a business.



  37. Lindsay on October 12, 2010 at 5:38 pm

    I would love to have a cookie that had rosemary and crunchy raw sugar on top. I could also do a lemon drop cookie with thyme and perhaps an orange glaze? I love anything that combines herbs and sweets!



  38. Erica on October 12, 2010 at 5:42 pm

    My dream cookie would be s Strawberry Blonde… strawberries with carmel and graham crackers. It is like the ice cream flavor from Cold Stone Creamery only in cookie form! Genius! 🙂



  39. elaine on October 12, 2010 at 5:46 pm

    oh gosh I’m starting to drool just pondering this question. I love the idea of a red velvet cookie so I would have to go with a red velvet cookie base with chunks of cream cheese frosting, macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips.



  40. Ananda on October 12, 2010 at 5:48 pm

    I’m a chocolate + peanut butter addict, so something along those lines would do it for me!



  41. lisa on October 12, 2010 at 5:48 pm

    Oatmeal with butterscotch chips and pecans– never had one, but my mouth is watering thinking about it. It might be too sweet… not sure 🙂
