The first time I ever had Nutella was when I was visiting my aunt in Toronto. She was putting it on her toast during breakfast. I was quite confused about the thick chocolate spread instead of the regular butter or jelly. Although I liked it, I never really got into it here in the States, just when it was available at the odd continental breakfast, plane ride or hotel room.
When I was pregnant with my son a couple of years ago, it seemed to be one of the few things I wanted to eat. At one point, I went through three jars in a month. I especially loved it on bread or fruit. I even created a little snack of my own what was a variation on something I had before: Granny Smith apple slices, cream cheese and peanut butter on white bread. My version was the apple slices, cream cheese, and Nutella on Hawaiian sweet bread. It’s better than you could even imagine.
If you love the chocolate and hazelnut goodness that is Nutella like I do, tomorrow is the day for you! I discovered recently that February 5th is Nutella Day. Celebrate with recipes, sharing it on the web if you have a blog or social networking account, or just spread it on something good and enjoy.
Well, hello. My son LOVES Nutella. It would make sense to give the product it’s own day in Feb. (National Chocolate Lovers Month, Amen.) I’m reading through your blog and yes, we can be all that and great mothers. Keep inspiring!
Just curious, are you in/around San Diego? I was in the Gaslamp District last weekend for lunch and browsing. If so, we are only an hour away….just a thought.
Hi!! Thank you for stopping by my blog! My niece loves Nutella more than my son does. My son is all about savory things and my niece loves sweet, lol!
Yes I am in San Diego! Please let me know the next time you’re in my neck of the woods again. How often do you come here??
xoxo
