The latest and greatest chocolate topic!!! To view the info on the webring, click above! (seperate page provided as a courtesy to telnetters)
~KitchenManager #1
Here it is, should I freeze the other two topics or leave well enough alone?
~autumn #2
Can there be too much talk about chocolate? Just got the Wolfgang order from school (one of many dreaded fundraisers) and already dove into the chocolate-covered peanut butter. What do you want to bet they won't make it till Easter? Now if I can just keep away from the girls' bunnies....
~terry #3
I won't bet you, wouldn't be prudent.
~autumn #4
Prudence is a virtue, terry.
~KitchenManager #5
Can one get a dozen of those covered in chocolate?
~stacey #6
*laugh* taking exactly what you want, when you want it may not be a virtue but it's a fulfilling existence!
~KitchenManager #7

~terry #8
Hav eyou run into Choconancy yet?
~KitchenManager #9
Not sure...explain
~terry #10
She's on a few other virtual communities. Maybe we could entice her into joining us.
~KitchenManager #11
Added more stuff to the chocolate page, ya'll check it out...once again, it's http://www.spring/net/~spew/chocolate.html what else do you all think should be on it?
~stacey #12
speaking of chocolate... my kds threw a surprise party for me. CHocolate cake w/ chocolate frosting with chocolate fudge brownie ice cream!
~KitchenManager #13
So, how did all that love and appreciation feel, teach?
~stacey #14
warm. *smile*
~KitchenManager #15
Sorry, everyone, that reminder link above should have said http://www.spring.net/~spew/chocolate.html (oops)
~KitchenManager #16
had my first s'more Sunday night...
~stacey #17
WooWoo! and what did you think?!?!
~KitchenManager #18
s'okay
~autumn #19
We camped out in the backyard Sat. night, and had s'mores over a campfire. Can't believe you were a s'more virgin before this weekend, wer! Must not have been a boy scout...
~KitchenManager #20
Eagle Scout actually, Autumn, that's the thing... in these here parts that's a Girl Scout tradition
~autumn #21
That may well be the same here. My brothers were both Eagle scouts, and my dad is still the scoutmaster. I'll have to find out if they have s'mores on their camporees...
~mikeg #22
dormant since the end of May? I don't believe you all. You're clearly not as committed to chocoholicism as ME ;) Anyway, as soon as I spotted this topic, I came up with a wild idea. How about an international chocolate swap between us all? I could send one/two/three of you some English chocolate, some of you stateside luvs could pass round some american examples, and riette and anyone else could deliver some swiss! comments? :-)
~riette #23
You just want to get your hands on my champaigne truffles in exchange for Rowntree's, don't you?!?!
~terry #24
Or my Lammes candies?
~mikeg #25
i was going to send thorntons, actually :)
~riette #26
ha-ha!! I'll send you champaigne truffles in exchange for FLAKE and AERO.
~mikeg #27
Flake and Aero? You've got it. E-mail me your address :-)
~mikeg #28
This could be like a chocoholic-swap-shop :))
~KitchenManager #29
I like it!
~riette #30
Okay, Mike, I'll e-mail you mine if you e-mail me yours. But the flakes mustn't be from Dunn's or Boyes okay? 'Cos there they sell them about three months after sell-by date for that extra crispness - but I like my chocolate fresh and melty. And . . . eh, how many flakes and aeros are you willing to exchange for 100g of truffles? I mean, we ARE talking mind boggling stuff here! You want to make a truffle deal, Wer?
~KitchenManager #31
if I but had the goods to deliver...
~riette #32
You could bake me some brownies . . .
~mikeg #33
offer and address e-mailed :)
~riette #34
Ooh! A man with deeds to go with the words! A rare thing. Whether my words will turn to deeds depends on the offer, of course . . . I shall have to go see , , ,
~autumn #35
(*pant pant*) A chocolate swap! Mmmmm, what a delicious idea!
~KitchenManager #36
as is chocolate pants!
~riette #37
ha-ha!! As long as you don't wee in them!
~mikeg #38
euwwwwww :-)) choccy-swap is organised. gotta go to the choccy-shop now :)
~riette #39
And I'll try not to eat the truffles before I send them!!
~riette #40
Here Sonja: Is there room for another member here? I am defenitely a chocoholic. And I had those truffles last year when I was here. It is indescribably good.
~autumn #41
Are you referring to the luscious-sounding champagned-filled grape truffles???
~riette #42
OOOOHHHHH yes! Get her to bring some across on that spring unification you're planning.
~mikeg #43
We still haven't managed to get that chocolate swap suggested above organised :) That *has* to be done, as soon as she cheers up and comes back!
~riette #44
Well, I'm back now.
~sonja #45
So send the man his chocolates!
~riette #46
nag!
~sonja #47
AWOL Woman!
~riette #48
�sticking my tongue out at you�
~sonja #49
*biting it off*
~jgross #50
*picking it up off the ground and taking it to emergency room with Riette for reattachment and thicker bite-resistant tongue skin graft*
~sonja #51
And I thought we'd finally have some peace and quiet!
~riette #52
Why don't you stick YOUR tongue out for a minute, cheeky....
~jgross #53
more highlights for the video --the tongue intermission
~autumn #54
Perhaps they're eligible for a transplant--any tongue donors out there?
~sonja #55
Two tongues - cool! But I'd like a mirror above my head, and no anaesthetics, please. Wouldn't want to miss a minute of such an interesting procedure.
~jgross #56
You're great with only one tongue (practically a master) But just don't stick it out (around Riette) She might not cough it up, after biting it off She might cough it right down without even chewing Like blooop down the throat and plop-a-doodle right into the stomach Irretrievable Irritatingly so I'm irritable just thinking about it So I won't Okay, it's over---it stopped....
~riette #57
ha-ha!! And we all know where it goes from there, don't we?? 'Plop-a-doodle'!
~sonja #58
WOW, that's mondo disgusto!
~riette #59
Yes - don't ye love it?
~sonja #60
Totally!
~jgross #61
yeah, that was pretty hip (isn't that where it goes for the last plop-a-doodle?)
~riette #62
It depends on what you consider to be hip....
~sonja #63
I consider plop-a-doodle to be hip.
~KitchenManager #64
Looks like I'm adding a chocolate mousse(sp?) to the dessert menu at work...
~riette #65
After ice-cream that would be just about my favourite dessert!
~sonja #66
Nope; I would prefer the chocolate mousse defenitely!
~riette #67
I know....

~autumn #69
*cracking up*
~riette #70
As long as they keep it away from Mick Jagger, it's fine by me!
~aschuth #71
But if they wouldn't, he might start to look better than that rose! (What topic was Mick's rose in... Forgot.) Hi Ri�tte!
~riette #72
Mick has a ROSE?? WHERE???
