Chocolate

I was given this cute calendar for Christmas called 365 Reasons to Eat Chocolate by Sherrie Weaver and they make me laugh so I thought it might be nice to share them.  Some are silly, some are dumb, but I look forward to flipping the page everyday and thought I'd share my laughs with you.  I'll post the daily reason here unless no one is reading them or it gets deleted.  Enjoy! 

July 23: Nothing worth having cannot be chocolate coated.

LOL!  I like that!  Makes me want chocolate covered strawberries though!

Hmmm, chocolate covered chicken?  Or grapes?  Blech! 

I do love chocolate, though... I guess I can't knock it until I try it...

What a good gift to receive!  I love calendars that have daily sayings...I'll be back to check tomorrows quote.  :)

July 24: Everybody takes a coffee break.  Take a chocolate break instead.

I like this one because I don't drink coffee!

I like that one.....a chocolate break sounds yummy.

Thanks. I'll take one today.

MMM, now I want a Mocha!

July 25: Use chocolate puff type cereal in place of crispy rice cereal in marshmallow treats.

I like chocolate puffy cereal. Oooo!!

I don't drink coffee, or tea (a crime in England), nor do I smoke, so don't have fag breaks, so I think it is only fair I have a chocolate break now and then... Of course my chocolate break would probably consist of a huge galaxy bar...

July 26: Pity those beautifully slender bikini models, for they do not know the joy of chocolate caramel clusters.

And you get tomorrow's as it's my day off, I'll post the weekends on Monday!

July 27: The need for chocolate is an addiction that no one wants to cure.

So true!  Have a great weekend!

I think I need one of those little calendar things for myself...

I'm sure you can find them at Borders or something similar!  Ours is a family one that gets passed from one person to another every year, it's beginning to be a hot item and people fight over who's going to get it next!  Luckily it's just a date thing and there's no weekday so it works every year!

Mmm I love me some chocolate!  I just had a Hershey's bar with almonds in it yesterday... did not feel guilty at all!  I put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes so it was nice and coooold.  :]

(Plus if you put it in longer so it's definitely frozen, I reckon it's harder to bite - and you might not eat as much.)

This is a great topic for all of us.  I allow myself some chocolate in the early evenings (yes, I do log it) if I have kept my calorie count for the day below 1000.

So far, I've managed it every day I've been logging calories, but that's only been a week, so pray for me!!!

Honestly, I may still eat the chocolate regardless, just as a treat for myself for working so hard.

back to the rice krispy treat idea - I've been making them with cocoa pebbles for years!  You can also add cocoa powder to the melted marshmallows... yum.

i like goign to target cuz they have all sorts of weird chocolate. i forgot who makes em but my favorite is the chocolate with the hot peppers on them =/

July 28: Chocolate is proof that granola was meant as a joke.

July 29: If you take the stairs to the candy machine in your office building, rather than the elevator the calories don't count.

July 30: CHOCOLATE LOVER'S TIP: Frost peanut butter cookies with chocolate frosting.

Sorry these are so late, work's been busy today!
