Eat CHOCOLATE ... and get Philosophical!

Kathy ... this one’s for you!

Are you ready to have some fun? It’s Fun Friday ladies!! And what better way to enjoy our Friday than with CHOCOLATE!

I have a box of super yummy chocolates sitting here with me. I got them last week ... and I’ve done a really great job staying away from them. But today ... I will eat the chocolate!

No one’s home. Martin’s at work. The kids are all at school. It’s just me, my computer, and my box of chocolates. Hmm ... I wonder which one I’m gonna get first?

Have I shared with you yet my theory on life? I’m feeling philosophical as I’m sitting here eating my chocolate ...

I believe that Forrest Gump had it all wrong. Remember what he said? Forrest Gump said that life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.

Great movie. I loved it. But the theory is all wrong. I don’t like not knowing what I’m gonna get. (Except when eating chocolate. That makes it more fun. But not with life).

I like being in control. I like going after what I want ... and getting it.

I prefer to think of life like a Chinese food buffet! Grab your plate, head on over to the buffet, and pick and choose what you want.

Don’t like something? Push it to the side and don’t eat it.

Want more of something? Go back to the buffet and get some more!

And then dessert??!! ALL YOU CAN EAT!!!

Yes! Thinking of life as a Chinese food buffet is a much better way to go about it, don’t ya think? Decide what you want out of life ... and then go after it!!

But with chocolate? Sure! It’s fun to just bite in and not know which one you’re gonna get. So join me. Go get yourself a yummy box of chocolates. It’s OK. It’s Fun Friday! Today, all moms shall eat chocolate ... and enjoy!

  1. Thank you for giving me guilt-free permission to go rummage through my daughter's candy box. Yes, you read that right. We actually have a candy box. Since we tend to have ant problems from time to time, and we seem to find ourselves with lots of candy, chocolate, and other goodies around the house, I finally purchased a medium size, see-through storage bin to store in the kitchen. When we get Halloween candy, it all gets dumped into the box. When we get Valentine's treats - in the box. Christmas and Easter yummies - in the box. As it turns out, all year long there's something delicious in the box to choose from. Oh, I forgot to add - my female monthly chocolate craving splurges...if there are leftovers, they go in the box. The other night we just filled it up again with candy the girls collected while watching the local high school homecoming parade (people here throw candy at the crowds during parades. It's GREAT! :) ). Anyway, I'm off to go find some chocolate in the box.

    Blessings,

  2. Oh my gosh I love those boxes of chocolates! I rarely get them though but you've got me craving for some! I am usually picky on the kinds so I intensively review the chocolates map/guide. ;P

  3. I wish I could eat as much chocolate as I like without gaining any weight... But if I want to stay fit I MUST stay away from sugary stuff :(
