    i just Love dark choc. also chabba. i like Ghirdelli, and am becoming a chocalte "snob" which is good. i only eat good stuff now, cant afford much, si i can't gobble, but ration it out. Christmas saeson is the best. i love the chocalate bark w/ candy cane in it. bought it 12 price after sales, and have it in the freezer, as we speak!!

    I never thought that anyone would be unable to get See's.  Good ol' Mother See and her legion of workers wearing white dresses with litle black bows.

    This has got to be a put-on because even Barbie couldn't maintain that waistline if she worked at See's.

    Just yesterday, my mum came over with things forgotten at her house on Christmas. Included with those items were left over candied (mint chewy nugget things and 2- 2lb boxes of choc that friend brought to a luncheon she hosted) Didn't want in her house so brought them to mine for dd to take back to university with her. Great plan, safely out of our hands......too bad dd is away for the week visiting friends...not much left Tongue out

    FDIL brought a huge box of Cherry Cordials at Christmas.  I handed out several of the inner packages to people as they left, but thankfully, last night I was able to rampage through the kitchen until I came across them and popped two in my mouth. (In succession, not at one time.)  That was enough to quell that chocolate urge.

    Chabba...... anything with water qualifies, we're not particularly qualitative. We like our sand, but water is the main ingrediant.

    HeyMoose sent me an amazing package of dark chocolate covered pomegranates last year in the midst of my recovery from surgery. It was a LARGE package!!!! We rationed just having a few nibbles every now & then. Well last night, with all the chocolate urging on here -- we finished off the package. DH made me share some of the last morsels with him. EXCELLANT!!!!

    Today being Wednesday, I think we need a few distractions from the chocolate and should celebrate some Happy Hump day diversions:

    Life should always be about choices.

    What with Konakat getting ready to head to the actual beach, I think she should get first choice:
