~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:05) #1

boy am i a dope, after entering this topic, found that terry was way ahead of me. but hey, can't have too many chocolate sites!

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:12) #2

hmmmm....

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:15) #3

you a chocoholic?

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:20) #4

no...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:22) #5

then watcha doin' here? ;)

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:33) #6

hey, i'm just looking for the produce aisle...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:36) #7

*giggle* hey, there's a place reserved for the tomato (!) is that more up your aisle?

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:44) #8

depends... variety, ripeness, etc...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:46) #9

how ripe do you like 'em?

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:47) #10

depends... variety, ripeness, etc...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:50) #11

you meant to say all that again, right?

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:50) #12

that point really required accentuation...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:52) #13

then what variety equals what ripeness?

~pmnh Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:58) #14

mmmm...always been partial to early girls, i suppose...

~Wolf Sun, Dec 7, 1997 (23:59) #15

oh, why's that?

~pmnh Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:06) #16

sheesh... whaddaya think? (there always just a little firmer)

~Wolf Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:06) #17

and what of the flavor?

~pmnh Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:13) #18

actually, succulence takes precedence over flavor... (each possesses a distinctive flavor, anyway)

~pmnh Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:14) #19

~Wolf Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:15) #20

of course....

~Wolf Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (00:18) #21

tis late, you know. and as i would love to continue this discussion, must be on my way. shall we meet again later?

~stacey Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (17:58) #22

So much for chocolate...

~terry Mon, Dec 8, 1997 (23:59) #23

I just heard chocolate is not good for folks with allergies (not me).

~stacey Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (10:16) #24

well sure... if you're allergic to it!

~Wolf Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (18:23) #25

besides allergies, folks who suffer from migraines need to be careful too. And that's so sad, chocolate is just plain yummy!

~stacey Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (18:26) #26

That would be why I keep my black and green pills on hand... just in case!

~Wolf Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (18:29) #27

you poor thing. does chocolate trigger your migraines?

~stacey Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (18:32) #28

stress usually triggers my migranes but I find I eat more chocolate when I'm stressed... se how the two go together. Not so bad anymore though. I had a migraine last October but before that I had gone 16 months without one! Colorado air, I think!

~Wolf Tue, Dec 9, 1997 (19:24) #29

I get stress headaches too. usually after something stresses me.

~stacey Wed, Dec 10, 1997 (09:42) #30

Today it was the six inches of snow that buried my car. Digging out my vehicle is NOT my favorite morning activity. There are so many other things to do in the wee hours!

~Wolf Wed, Dec 10, 1997 (13:46) #31

heard that!

~Wolf Wed, Dec 10, 1997 (23:20) #32

you know what? i just realized what i said a few lines up. DUH! what i meant was that i don't experience those headaches until a few hours after the stress has been resolved. heard that migraines are a result of relaxation of the blood vessels in the head.

~stacey Mon, Dec 15, 1997 (18:29) #33

Oh, I thought it was someone running an ice pick through your eyballs and curving up toward your head. And with one of those rotart attachments... Either way... it's bad mojo!

~terry Mon, Dec 15, 1997 (23:21) #34

Gross.

~KitchenManager Tue, Dec 16, 1997 (01:28) #35

Fairly accurate, though.

~stacey Wed, Dec 17, 1997 (10:03) #36

And back to chocolate...

~KitchenManager Fri, Dec 19, 1997 (17:33) #37

Yes, let all them homemade Christmas goodies start rolling in...

~stacey Fri, Dec 19, 1997 (18:22) #38

My students piled cookie upon picture upon baked good on my desk. *smile* Made me feel appreciated.

~Wolf Sat, Dec 20, 1997 (18:55) #39

Love all those goodies, everytime I turned around at work there was a new cookie platter at someone's desk. Yummy! Had a big ol' bag of those hershey's nuggets at my desk and they didn't last five minutes (no I didn't eat 'em all). Glad no one brought in a fruit cake (yuck), but did get a couple of rum cakes and this cheesecake that was out of this world good!

~Wolf Sat, Jan 3, 1998 (22:35) #40

I need some chocolate tonight........ (feel better now, just had to let that out)

~stacey Mon, Jan 5, 1998 (10:07) #41

I LIKE fruitcake!

~KitchenManager Mon, Jan 5, 1998 (10:28) #42

How about fruitcakes?

~Wolf Mon, Jan 5, 1998 (21:29) #43

gotta luv 'em fruitcakes!! (that's a rare thing, Stacey, more power to ya!)

~stacey Thu, Jan 8, 1998 (20:47) #44

I made the mistake of saying that aloud in school yesterday and got everyone's 4 1/2 y.o. fruitcake tin from "aunt ida" with the 4 1/2 y.o fruitcake. Perhaps I should amend the statement to good fruitcake? With plenty o' wine?

~Wolf Thu, Jan 8, 1998 (21:37) #45

speaking of which, somebody pour me a stiff one

~KitchenManager Thu, Jan 8, 1998 (23:41) #46

Um, I've got a stiff one...

~stacey Fri, Jan 9, 1998 (18:14) #47

LOL!!!

~KitchenManager Sat, Jan 10, 1998 (21:33) #48

Glad I can still amuse you...*wink* How about them skiing deaths emphasizing the fact neither of us has skiied...or ever plan too.

~terry Sat, Jan 10, 1998 (23:19) #49

Amazing that two prominent politicians, one on the right, the other on the left, both ran into trees skiiing in the same week. And that Sonny had talked about buying a helmet the same day.

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (00:00) #50

ironic, huh? wer, where's that drink?

~KitchenManager Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (00:46) #51

Drink?!?!? I thought you meant... *deep blush*

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (00:54) #52

do need that drink, can you fix me up? (I know what you thought I meant and yes, you should blush *grin*)

~KitchenManager Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:04) #53

Sure, what's your virtual poison? (haven't changed in reality, have you?)

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:06) #54

no. just been a fool (and i think you know what i mean). and now am getting ready to be told just what a fool i've been. so make it a strong one, k

~KitchenManager Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:10) #55

Well, you can't have my jester's outfit, as much as I wish it wasn't my "job"... Should I come in and interupt?

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:17) #56

know, do just fine without a costume, thanks. nothing to interupt, really. just a gal being made a fool....

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:18) #57

that is "no"

~KitchenManager Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:25) #58

I've got some extra Lindt truffles, snack on those while I get that drink ready...

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:26) #59

think i just need to go to bed.......

~KitchenManager Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:32) #60

could be, you wanna think about me tonight? *wink*

~Wolf Sun, Jan 11, 1998 (01:45) #61

LOL

~stacey Thu, Jan 15, 1998 (17:51) #62

saved by a cheesy box of Whitman's this week!

~KitchenManager Thu, Jan 15, 1998 (23:10) #63

Oooh, the possibilites...

~stacey Mon, Jan 19, 1998 (17:12) #64

They were creams!

~Wolf Mon, Jan 19, 1998 (20:08) #65

OK, I need some chocolate tonight and all the stores are closed.

~autumn Mon, Jan 19, 1998 (23:15) #66

Even the 7-11??

~stacey Tue, Jan 20, 1998 (18:22) #67

no 24 hour super markets?

~terry Tue, Jan 20, 1998 (18:51) #68

What city are you in wolf?

~Wolf Tue, Jan 20, 1998 (21:16) #69

well, yeah, got all that, just was in my pj's at the time and didn't want to scare anybody!

~stacey Thu, Jan 22, 1998 (16:47) #70

Man, I go to Safeway in my Jammies and glasses at all hours of the night. When you look that scary, people assume you're sick and they're real nice!

~Wolf Thu, Jan 22, 1998 (17:19) #71

LOL!!

~KitchenManager Fri, Jan 23, 1998 (08:30) #72

Glasses?

~stacey Fri, Jan 23, 1998 (09:11) #73

yes, when my contacts aren't in...

~KitchenManager Fri, Jan 23, 1998 (10:09) #74

I knew that, sorry but the body was awake while the memory was still sleepin'...

~stacey Mon, Jan 26, 1998 (09:38) #75

that's not necessarily a bad state WER (moves a groggy arm over your chest) *yawn* Oops! Sorry about the incidental contact... *smile*

~KitchenManager Mon, Jan 26, 1998 (22:19) #76

Do whatever ya want, just don't wake me up. I don't want this dream to end...

~KitchenManager Thu, Mar 5, 1998 (12:43) #77

Hey, folks, I was thinking about killing the two chocolate topics and reposting the pertinent ones to a new chocolate topic, with maybe a webring in the topic header. Whatchya'll think?

~Wolf Fri, Mar 6, 1998 (20:20) #78

just don't take the chocolate away, a webring for chocolate??? cool

~mikeg Sat, Nov 7, 1998 (22:35) #79

I bought everything on the list for chocolate fondu, today! And then some more stuff - mainly fruit. Hopefully it won't just be fore eating from bowls.......if you know what I mean :)

~riette Sun, Nov 8, 1998 (00:28) #80

Oh, baby! Do it!

~autumn Mon, Nov 9, 1998 (22:28) #81

Well, don't keep us in suspense!

~mikeg Tue, Nov 10, 1998 (16:44) #82

Hehehe...dinner went perfectly. Unfortunately because e'd eaten so much the left-over chocolate fondu was distributed amongst house-mates, but we made up for it on Monday morning :-)

~riette Wed, Nov 11, 1998 (01:42) #83

WAY TO GO!

~PT Sat, Dec 19, 1998 (17:13) #84

In my estimation, there is no such thing as too much chocolate!

~MarciaH Sat, Aug 28, 1999 (14:58) #85

"Irresistible" Finding a bottle on the beach, Jake uncorks it and releases a genie. "Ah, now you get three wishes," says the genie. "Great!" Jake replies. "First, I want one billion dollars." Poof! There's a flash, and a paper with Swiss bank account numbers appears in Jake's hand. "Next, I want a nice ocean-side house in Hawaii." Poof! Another flash, and he is holding the deeds to an ocean side property in Hawaii. "Finally," Jake says, "I want to be irresistible to women." Poof! There's another blinding flash, ...and Jake turns into a box of chocolates.

~MarciaH Sat, Aug 28, 1999 (14:59) #86

Suddenly Food has a beautiful new look. Thanks to our RG? It is most lovely and so easy to read...I am now not satisfied with Geo. This is too good. Congratulations on your most excellent taste.

~aschuth Sun, Aug 29, 1999 (13:14) #87

I comply with this praise!

~mrchips Sun, Aug 29, 1999 (16:25) #88

Chocolate is to most women what beer is to most men. Life is NOT like a box of chocolates, but the White House is. Nice and pretty on the outside and full of nuts on the inside.

~MarciaH Sun, Aug 29, 1999 (16:42) #89

That is good, John

~mrchips Sun, Aug 29, 1999 (21:51) #90

Actually, I love both beer and chocolate...but not together.

~MarciaH Sun, Aug 29, 1999 (23:19) #91

I thought I was just about to find out why they chocolate cover pretzels...!

~mrchips Mon, Aug 30, 1999 (00:30) #92

So people who prefer chocolate to beer will eat pretzels, too.

~MarciaH Mon, Aug 30, 1999 (00:40) #93

...sheesh! Of course!...no excuses, Sir! (The things I learn from the Big Boys are truly fascinating...)*grin*

~autumn Mon, Aug 30, 1999 (14:16) #94

LOVE this background!

~riette Tue, Aug 31, 1999 (07:36) #95

'Tis gorgeous!!! It looks so appetizing too. �shamelessly licking the screen�

~MarciaH Wed, Sep 1, 1999 (21:59) #96

I wanna new background for Geo...sheedsh...why does food have to get all of the goodies...whine...whinge...nah! Not my style!!! It is fabulous and about time it was a lovely as it can be. Any way to get those tongue smears off my monitor?

~riette Thu, Sep 2, 1999 (02:09) #97

Get the dog to lick 'em off!

~MarciaH Mon, Sep 6, 1999 (00:44) #98

Ree, you're full of good ideas tonight (this morning or whenever it was posted) *lol* then what do I use to get the doggie slobber off?

~riette Mon, Sep 6, 1999 (01:03) #99

Why, your hand of course.

~MarciaH Mon, Sep 6, 1999 (01:13) #100

But I have chocolate smears on my fingers...
