The Chronic Consumer

Most of my husband’s friends are motocross riders, which means they all have huge pickup trucks for their bikes and equipment. Of course, none of these guys are actually happy with the state of their trucks right from the dealer, so they’re always shopping for various accessories to add or install. One of the most popular among the motocross set is an in-bed truck toolbox to help them keep their tools nice and organized.

I really like these toolboxes, and wish my husband would get one. As things stand now, he just has a regular portable toolbox that always gets in the way. If he keeps it in the cab, there’s no room for people to sit comfortably. If he keeps it in the back, it bounces and slides around while we’re driving, and we always have to worry about it getting stolen.

An in-bed toolbox definitely seems like the way to go, so hopefully we’ll pick one of these up very soon!

I have developed quite a sweet tooth in recent years and consequently look for snacks that can satisfy this craving. In my endless quest for new treats, I came across these tiramisu flavored quadratini wafers from a company called Loacker. They’re made in Italy, but I happened to find them at a little store near my house that carries a variety of imported foods.

Let me tell you, these wafers are delicious! They’re shaped into bite-sized squares and consist of four thin layers of tiramisu-flavored cream wedged between five thin wafers. The squares are no more than an inch thick. They’re very light and flavorful, and HIGHLY addictive! Unfortunately, they’re also high in calories, so I really have to limit my daily intake.

Anyway, if you can find these Loacker Quadratini Tiramisu squares at a store near you, I definitely recommend buying them. They taste wonderful and I’m sure you’ll love them as much as I do!
