Coffee and Chocolate
Friday, 11.17.06 @ 12:01AM 
The family recently made a pilgrimage to Hershey, Pennsylvania, where we took a tour of the chocolate factory. It was a good time for the kids, but my high point was the chocolate store. I picked up several forms of dark chocolate, one bar of which I am enjoying right now, with a cup of coffee. I would go so far as to say I am addicted to coffee. I also love chocolate (whats not to love)! But when you put the two together, as in a nice piece of dark chocolate with a hot cup of fresh joe, I am in heaven. Now, if I could just find a nice man to give me a footrub at the same time...
Useless Advice on why men cheat. It will make sense eventually.
Ya know, if I could just make a decent cup of coffee, I wouldn’t have to worry about my husband and the girls in his office...
A restaurant called Chocolate By the Bald Man caters to chocoholics. A chocolate restaurant. I like the concept!
I know people who are very particular about their coffee, like PAgent and Clu.
You can even inhale your coffee! 
I know there’s a special name for the art of making designs in coffee with cream, but I can’t think of it. But here’s a gallery of such art. (via Grow-A-Brain)
The Sage of Starbucks! His mission? To drink a cup of joe at every Starbucks in the land. Here, the story of one man, over 12,000 coffee shops, and what happens when you down 29 Talls in a single day.

Check out the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Toilet Seat. It makes the perfect topper for the chocolate toilet cake. Order the toilet seat, and they ‘ll give you directions for the cake.
Miracle Cake
An overweight business associate of mine decided it was time to shed some excess pounds. He took his new diet seriously, even changing his driving route to avoid his favourite bakery.
One morning, however, he arrived at work carrying a gigantic chocolate cake. We all scolded him, but his smile remained cherubic.
"This is a very special coffeecake," he explained. "I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning and there in the window was a host of goodies. I felt this was no accident, so I prayed, 'Lord, if you want me to have one of those delicious chocolate cakes, let me have a parking place directly in front of the bakery.' And sure enough," he continued, "the eighth time around the block, there it was!"
Coffee Machine Instructions
Cousin Elly is the world's worst at getting instructions mixed up. When she got married her husband bought her one of those fancy, electric coffee makers. It had all the latest gadgets on it.
Salesman Riley carefully explained how everything worked; how to plug it in, set the timer, go back to bed, and upon rising, the coffee is ready."
A few weeks later Elly was back in the store and Riley asked her how she liked the coffee maker.
"Wonderful!" she replied, "However, there's one thing I don't understand. Why do I have to go to bed every time I want to make a pot of coffee?"

Thought for today: Researchers have discovered that chocolate produces some of the same reactions in the brain as marijuana. The researchers also discovered other similarities between the two but can't remember what they are. ~Matt Lauer

Was that the one on Broadway in the Village? I've never been...
BTW I don't work at McDoanlds or own any McD stock, this is just an obervation!
My taste for chocolate has lessoned quite a bit over the last few years (I know. What a crime). Thank goodness I visited Hershey, Pa. when I still was a chocolate lover. heh
