{CHOCOLATE}

Oh, I guess I do
Have a chocolate bar bigger than my head.
A ten pound brick of the most fabulous chocolate ever.
I need three more of them.
So I can do this...
And this...
So I have this...
For this...
Not many shopping days left.
(OK, that makes me twitch a little.)

    YUMMY!!!!!

    I would LOVE to know how to do it, although I know most of it would end up IN MY MOUTH and ON MY HIPS.

    Make mine dark chocolate please.

    And I'm twitching a little too. In fact, I'm sitting here ordering a couple Christmas gifts, that's how bad I'm twitching.

    I like your name tag that says, "Hey, Nurse!" I'll bet that is your title at work. I'm sure it's said with love, however! You're way too prepared for Christmas. My motto is wait and then panic. That's how I roll.

    That looks so amazing!! I've always wanted to make chocolates---especially if involved working with chocolate on a marble slab. Looks so classy:)

    PS-had the most random dream the other night where I was traveling through Idaho and stopped to say hi to you---except you were involved in an extended-family reunion! And then your son-in-law (??) gave me a ride to the airport but his legs were so long that you had taken the front seat out of the car and he sat in the back and stretched his legs to the peddles. So weird.

    Chocolate?! Did somebody mention CHOCOLATE?!!!

    I suddenly had a thought. What if one day they turn computer monitors into 3-D like theyve been doing to movies, you know? That picture of you with the giant chocolate by your head... I could have reached in and taken that out of your hands! Its a good thing I didn't try, I think I would have broken my fingers when it smashes against the screen.

    Oh, you are soooooo...well, nothing I can say will do it justice. I am jealous. And sad that I live so far away and can't just "drop by"..."for a visit"..."because I was just thinking of you and wondering what I could do to make your life eas—Oh, you're making Christmas chocolates? Oh, no. I couldn't. I shouldn't. No, really-okay!" (gobble, hoark, snarf!) :)

    I love chocolate - for me, the darker the better! I would love to know how to make chocolates - but, unfortunately . . . I would eat them, and that's NOT good!

    Yikes - I better get busy with my Christmas shopping!
