I received the Greek Yogurt Raspberry ZonePerfect® Greek Yogurt bar in my Influenster GoodVoxBox. I decided I would eat it for a quick breakfast. It was actually pretty good. I'm honestlyy not a big fan of greek yogurt (it has a bitter taste). So I figured I would not like these bars. To my surprise, I actually like them. I think I would like the chocolate ones even better! I like raspberry but it's never my go to flavor. I tend to never buy anything that is just raspberry but instead a mixture of raspberry and strawberries and other berries. I would buy just strawberry though. But the raspberry flavor was not that bad. I just still personally think that the flavors should be chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla berry (including raspberry with the other fruits). I think a lot of people like strawberries; I never hear too much about raspberries. But either way, this is a very healthy bar. Especially for those that exercise. It has 3 grams of fiber and 12 grams of protein. It can be hard to find that in a bar, especially one that's delicious.

Sweetness!--Amélie's French Bakery
I must say the best bakery I have been to would have to be Amélie's French Bakery in North Carolina. I happened to be in Charlotte, North Carolina and heard about this bakery. I thought to myself: "what could be so good about a bakery?" I can be a pretty picky eater so not just anything is great to me. In other words, I was not expecting to be amazed. I just figured this would be like any bakery...
...My mind was changed by just walking in. The place is filled with CRAZY art. Even the tables and chairs were art. They had many chandeliers (made out of various objects) and even Mona Lisa with shades. I cannot even put in words all the things I saw there. It's one of those things you have to see for yourself. I wish I had taken a lot of pictures.
But anyways, besides the scenery, the desserts was also AMAZING, WONDERFUL, DELCIOUS,....all of the above! Unfortunately, I only had the chance to try two things: a cinnamon macaroon and their salted caramel brownies. Just talking about it makes me want to drive to North Carolina and get some (which means that it must be pretty good considering that would be a 6 hour drive). Good scenery and good food! I think that deserves a 10 out of 10!!! Prices may seem high, but trust me, it's definitely worth it.
So if you're ever in Charlotte, be sure to check this place out; you won't regret it.

Meatball Stuffed Biscuits
So I found this amazing recipe on Pinterest and I just knew I would have to try it. When I made them, I got one can of the Grand Layers Biscuits, a package of Italian Meatballs, shredded pepperjack cheese, and some Italian seasoning. It's a pretty simple recipe too which is always a plus! Put the meatballs and cheese inside half of a biscuit. Sprinkle some cheese and italian seasoning on top. Let it bake in the oven and you're DONE! I didn't have any marinara sauce at the time. But they were delicious by themselves. I also tried them with barbecue sauce and also honey mustard dipping sauce. Both were great!
