is there anything to chat about?

nope.....wait................i got it.........................no i havent

 

Thisk of a subject, start a thread, and hopefully we'll chat about it! It would help if it was of international interest....

 

Like chocolate. Everyone loves chocolate!

 

You know, I just love those Lindt chocolate truffles--y'know, the ones with the creamy milk chocolate inside. Mmmm...and they're available in Borders bookstores now. *drools*

 

Why cut down? Chocolate is good for you. Maybe.

 

lol...........is there any one in the would that hates chocolate.....it should be a crime to hate chocolate

 

People who like to watch their weight? Personally I went through a phase of not liking (note: that doesnt mean i hated) chocolate. Why? Because I had braces on my teeth and it would get caught and it was gross. But that was years ago

 

I love chocolate, especially Godiva in the assortment of them. You never know which one you'll get in the box.

 

Don't mention Cadburys and salmonella (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/5110674.stm)

I don't actually eat very much chocolate. I like it but I'm cutting down on that sort of food as I need to lose a bit of weight. My current favourites are Mingles.

 

Not yet - we're still chatting about chocolate here!

Maybe a new thread for another subject would be a good idea?

 

But I want to talk about chocolate

Anyway, here's a bit of a chocolate-related story for you:

One Sunday morning, I came home after a friends 18th the previous night. I was a bit (or maybe a lot) hung over, and wasn't in the mood for anything other than bed.

So I walk in the door and my mum insists that I sweep the back path, as it was covered in leaves (which tend to get slippery in the wet). I was obviously so not in the mood to do that, so I complained. However, in the end she won, and I ended up sweeping the leaves off the path. There is a spare room in our house, where my mum stores the treadmill. This room has a wall size window that over looks the very path I was sweeping. Anyway, there I am sweeping the path, trying to stay awake and trying to ignore my throbbing head, when my mum decides to use her treadmill, and smile (in an evil, mocking way) at me. I couldn't believe it. I was her entertainment! She was actually enjoying watching me sweep the paths.

Needless to say I was a bit annoyed, and being the evil son I am, I walked inside, grabbed one of her mars bars (that she treasures), walked back outside, and slowly ate it in front of her. While I ate it, I exaggerated how much i enjoyed it, moaning with every bite, saying things like "Mmm....being able to eat chocolate and not gain weight!" just to rub it in.

I have to say though, that was the most satisfying chocolate bar I've had.
