Chocolate (icecream)

, , , ,

star On the front page of Opera Community there is a poll that ask; "Favorite ice cream flavor?" My answer was "chocolate" of course! And I have noticed that the poll shows chocolate is leading. Guess I am not unlike many others in the world...chocolate is universal in yumminess.

star There is no way to explain the way that chocolate can make you feel when it is melting slowly on your tongue...receptors begin firing in your brain connecting this wonderful sensation with the feeling of absolute bliss. But these feelings that we are having are proven to be real and not only just because chocolate 'taste good'.

star Chocolate has cancer fighting goodness in it, blood pressure lowering qualities, and can give your brain the same high that marijuana does. (but doesn't last as long) *GASP*
For the love of chocolate, give me more then. happy
But for the health benefits, chose the dark chocolate...and not the milky, creamy stuff that most people find satisfying. I enjoy dark and light chocolate myself, but not if is in the shape of a flower. lol:heart:

Ohh very nice! smile

*side note- someone said my blog is 'huge' and 'hard to get around' is that true? sad faint

Stardancer Friday, May 11, 2007 2:59:55 PM

Other than the mouth-watering pictures of chocolate treats, I have no trouble at all with your blog. (No trouble there, either, except that I don't have any chocolate in the house...lol)

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Friday, May 11, 2007 3:09:50 PM

Dark FurieFurie Friday, May 11, 2007 3:14:33 PM

On Opera Mini, those icons you have linked to your tags take up a screen each on smaller resolution phone screens. Maybe that's it. Or maybe they're not used to people linking between posts and other sites while reading blogs? Personally I like that style of writing. Oh, while I remember, you spelt performances wrong in your sidebar links. Meant to tell you when I noticed.

Spaggyj Friday, May 11, 2007 3:15:44 PM

Dammit - now I've got a craving for Black Forest Cherry ice-cream!
cry

Dark FurieFurie Friday, May 11, 2007 3:17:24 PM

*drool* I decided against buying ice cream today, dammit! sad

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Friday, May 11, 2007 3:20:12 PM

Mik- you were dieing to get me back you littttttllllllleeeee....
lol Oh I am keeping my tags man irked you can't make them go away, lol. I am sorry if they are a problem. sad


Kim-I know....right....yumminess! chef

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Friday, May 11, 2007 3:21:21 PM

Are you two on seperate phones or passing back and forth? I get this image of the two of you tag teaming the phone..... yes I am sick in the head. lol

Spaggyj Friday, May 11, 2007 3:23:33 PM

LOL we've got seperate phones, of course!

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Friday, May 11, 2007 3:24:18 PM

lol Okay....I was hoping so. whistle

Dark FurieFurie Friday, May 11, 2007 3:27:12 PM

Seperate phones. We even tell each other to "just go there and look yourself" so we get the most for our money. lol We shared a phone for a while but someone always gets left out when you do that, normally Kim I'm ashamed to say.

Tags aren't a problem for me. But I did think I'd broken the phone at first until I worked out what they were.

Dying to get you back? By the way, you spelt dying wrong p devil lol

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Friday, May 11, 2007 3:47:27 PM

You know, I was getting a big kick out of that....and truth be told, I can't spell....well for the most part...spell check is my life line when I use it. and you have spell check built into the phone so you have the clear advantage. I know because was just using my phone yesterday to instant message while I took my youngest to the Dr. bigsmile

Bad spelling is a part of life...dno't you arege? lol

Spaggyj Friday, May 11, 2007 4:06:12 PM

Spaggyj Friday, May 11, 2007 4:06:16 PM

MarcusFXM256 Friday, May 11, 2007 5:22:10 PM

I love chocolate too. We have a restaurant in Manhattan that sells a Frozen Hot Chocolate that is so delicious and takes more than 1 person to finish it all smile

Spaggyj Saturday, May 12, 2007 1:30:25 PM

The "Mock 10" Signs of Blog Addiction

At Bloggers Anonymous—we normally frown upon spreading propaganda that minimizes the serious nature of our cause. However, in the name of education and awareness, we would like to point to the this juvenile “Top 10” list of “symptoms” which indicate you may be a addicted to blogging. We will not reveal the authors as to not credit them in any way. Please be aware that this ignorance is out there—and defeating the spirit of our cause.

10. You check your blog stats a LOT. You occasionally get up in the middle of the night and sneak a peak.

9. Your significant other suspects you are having an affair with your blog. Even when you’re alone with your special person, you do find yourself thinking what your blog might be doing right then…

8. You “mental blog” while driving or on the train, and sometimes even when you are alone in the shower.

7. You filter everything through your post-writing. You can’t watch a movie, see a play, read an article, or share a sweet moment with your child without thinking of whether it’s blog-worthy.

6. You suffer from “blog envy” when another blogger posts something juicy before you do. You suffer “comment envy” when said post gets 40-something comments – the jerk!

5. You “binge blog” 3 or 4 posts at once—only to feel guilty and empty afterward.

4. You ditched all your real friends for blog friends, because, well, “they understand.” You bypass Bowling Alone at the bookstore (who really cares?) while you reach for Naked Conversations.

3. You think, “I can stop at any time.”

2. Your lunch hour has become your “blog hour.” You keep a few posts tucked in your desk in case you need them during the day.

1. After 5 minutes of meeting someone really interesting you ask, “So - do you blog?”

I am only kidding...but...oh my hair smells like perfume...awwwwwwwwww.

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Saturday, May 12, 2007 2:33:45 PM

Ramute-Me 2, I think it has to do with hormones! faint

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Saturday, May 12, 2007 2:35:10 PM

Kim-next time that your foot falls asleep get up and kick Mik with it..you won't feel a thing...but he will. devil

Ohhh green and black cherry...I have never had that! What brand is it?

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Saturday, May 12, 2007 2:39:12 PM

My daughter confirmed the fact that my hair smells good. bigsmile Actually she is right here and won't leave me alone....so i will go now and go...umm..craft or clean or something. Talk to you all soon! bigsmile

Dark FurieFurie Saturday, May 12, 2007 2:54:50 PM

Sarah, re- bloggers anonymous. Check my post about being addicted to this place for more telling signs.

Spaggyj Saturday, May 12, 2007 2:55:51 PM

LOL Sarah!
Oh, and Green & Black's is a brand - an organic range of chocolate. The cherry version is 70% cocoa solids and contains very sour pieces of cherry. Ya can only handle a square at a time, though, it's so rich.
bigsmile

Dark FurieFurie Saturday, May 12, 2007 3:00:06 PM

It's great with coffee...

Stomyr Saturday, May 12, 2007 3:57:16 PM

And w/o it too. smile

Spaggyj Saturday, May 12, 2007 4:45:57 PM

Hey, you like it too, Stomyr?
Cool!
bigsmile lol

Stomyr Saturday, May 12, 2007 4:47:20 PM

Yup. smile
I love choclate...And Coffee too. smile

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Sunday, May 13, 2007 12:26:02 AM

OMG I am so crazy sometimes....I think I was having a bit of a coffee high this am...but now it is 7 in the evening and I am not feeling so hyper. faint

Ok Mik going to have a peek.

Kim-so it is chocolate and not ice cream? The candy sounds sooo good and rich. smile

Stomyr-(I always want to write stormy) lol Well- have you tried that chocolate flavoured creamer? Coffee Mate makes it here.

Spaggyj Sunday, May 13, 2007 12:28:27 AM

Oh yeah sorry it is candy.

Dark FurieFurie Sunday, May 13, 2007 12:33:32 AM

Boo@coffeemate wink

Sarah Dreamsangel292005 Sunday, May 13, 2007 1:09:34 AM

I just had some chocolate, it was those malted milk balls...kinda made my tummy hurt! yuck I need some good dark stuff...


Boo @ coffeemate..yes I know you hate it, lol Boo you! And I am creating a reply on your 'online friendships' post.

Dark FurieFurie Sunday, May 13, 2007 9:18:41 AM

Dark chocolate is the food of the gods. I loved the stuff before, but Kim really got me into it as chocolate and not just something to have after dinner when the coffees are served. Still think it's best with coffee though.

Dark FurieFurie Sunday, May 13, 2007 9:19:35 AM

lol You're gonna kill me if I tell you what I'm laughing at.

Stomyr Sunday, May 13, 2007 9:23:40 AM

I won't kill you. smile wink

Spaggyj Sunday, May 13, 2007 9:47:05 AM

Mik's just told me what he's laughing at. Sarah, you might just murder him...

Stomyr Sunday, May 13, 2007 9:48:58 AM

Nobody will tell me? sad
