HOW funny....just this morning....I was craving a “FAT PILL” as we call them.....an apple fritter.....which I don’t indulge in very often...I looked around the kitchen and promised myself....if you do NOT go get a FAT PILL..you can have all the chocolate (dark) you want today....and I have! Figured it was MUCH better than an apple fritter. I HAVE stockpiled some chocolate in powder form....we do LOVE the LINDT 85% chocolate bars! Walmart has the best price right now. And, furthermore, I had a doctor tell me several years ago that dark chocolate (in moderation) WAS good for me.
Have you ever had those Belgian chocolate hazelnut thingies from Trader Joe’s? How about Nutella?
More thank you’s up to the Creator!
No doubt! I keep a bar of 70% Lindt w/orange on hand for just such ‘nutritional emergencies’! :)
The last thing I’d give up if times were really tough would be my chocolate. :)
I also invest in The Vice Fund. The last things others give up in hard times are booze, gambling and smokes. As an added bonus they invest in military defense, too! :)
Thanks for your reply!
I’m sort of getting into eating a lot of meat these days and staying away from as many carbs as I can.
