Found some interesting stuff on the net this morning.
I offer these chocolinks for your perusing pleasure:
- The Official Rec.Food.Chocolate List of Frequently Asked Questions - HUGE list of q's and a's about eating, cooking with, and buying chocolate.
- In Honour of Chocolate Friday or Mutilated Cake Galore - feel the love! This girl knows how to celebrate Chocolate Friday!
All About Chocolate - Excellent collection of articles about chocolate from Happy News. I especially enjoyed this one: How to Review and Compare Chocolate Taste. Interesting stuff, although I mostly just go by those little bells that go off in my head when something tastes really really good to me. :)
- All About Chocolate - good choco-info from Mr. Chocolate - Jacques Torres. Geared toward "cooking with".
- All About Chocolate - From FieldMuseum.org. I loved the section on choco-history. The image here came from their website.

That's enough chocolinkage for today. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get back to cooking and baking and I'll have some delish chocolate recipes next week!
Now admittedly I don't know the first thing about points, but if eating chocolate standing up is 1 point and eating it standing on one foot is 1/2 a point, then surely if you levitate it must be minus points?
So eating lets say oooo a bar of chocolate while levitating should give you enough points to eat chocolate to your heart's content comfortably reclining on a couch for the rest of the week?! :-P

Hey Gnu Girl, you're welcome, and thank YOU. :)) Keewee, I'm so sorry! You know, if you eat each piece of chocolate standing up it's only 1 point. If you stand on one foot I think it goes down to half a point.

Ooooo thank you, you have seen my post, and linked to it! :-D
I love your blog and it's such an honour to be mentioned in it!
Although it did remind me about how sadly I have neglected my poor blog lately, and that all of my posts aren't really - eh, that good... :-(

OoooH! I should have remembered you post about chocolate on fridays. I am having chocolate WITHDRAWL now I am on the weight watcher's program, I only get 20 points to use all day. Two itty bitty pieces of chocolate are 3 points. Whaaaaa so chocolate is a REAL TREAT for now and again instead of every day, as it used to be BOO Hoo!
