cupcake_goth | Oh sure, let's try the daily question: Writer's Block: Chocolate, spice, or anything nice

[Error: unknown template qotd]

A simple indulgence? Chocolate. Yes, I know, a stereotypical answer, but it's true. I currently have three bars of Theo Chocolates ginger & rose dark chocolate stockpiled, because I love it so and it's a seasonal offering. when I have a day job, I keep a bar of dark chocolate at my desk.

Would I consider giving it up permanently? Not for money. If absolutely dire health reasons were the reason, then yes. But for money, even oodles of it? No. Partially because I really like chocolate, partially because the chemicals in dark chocolate work really well on my biochemistry, and are actually very helpful in dealing with some of my bad brain days.

... now I want chocolate. And coffee. (Like that's a surprise.)

Today involves writing, taking pictures, and possibly starting a clothing alteration project I've been thinking about. The next ruffled skirt project is going to be from cream & pink striped fabric (well, sheets), and may also involve black velvet piping on the seams and hems of the ruffles. Maybe. Let's see if I want to work on something that fiddly. (But my goodness, it would be striking.)

Oh! And I have to email

jaborwhalky. (Now that I've written it here, I will remember to do so, right?)

Oh my!

My goodness, who would willingly give up chocolate?!
Only a crazed person!
It's much too yummy!

Re: Oh my!

Take a look at the level of compensation I'd want for giving up coffee. For that level of Everything I Want, I might consider giving up chocolate, too.

But no salted caramel would be safe from me henceforth.
