Chocolaholics rejoice! Today is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day.
Its a great day to indulge, binge, pig out, and otherwise consume to excess, your favorite food...chocolate. We believe the timing of this day, during the holiday season, couldn't be better.
Today, we get to enjoy our beloved chocolate by covering something, just about anything, in a generous amount of chocolate. Pour, spread, or drizzle chocolate over cakes, cupcakes, pies, pancakes or waffles, nuts, and raisins
As chocoloaholics, we shouldn't need any added incentive to enjoy our chocolate. In the giving spirit of the holiday season, make sure to give or share some of your favorite chocolate covered treats today.
Happy National Chocolate Covered Anything Day!!!!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands -- and then eat just one of the pieces.
Judith Viorst
I mentioned before that I do have some chocolate covered cashews here at my house. I also have a box of chocolate covered cherries which is another favorite of mine. And I have some chocolate covered soft gingerbread cookies which I found at Aldi’s and let me tell you, they are delicious. So I’m not going to be making anything else covered in chocolate here at my house for a while.
There is a limit to what one person can eat, after all. I try to limit myself to one piece of anything chocolate covered to one piece a day, but I’m not always successful. Today I’ll be running some errands and doing a little shopping so it’s another busy day here at my house.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday !

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3409. for chocolate, always makes most anything taste better
3410. for the occasional rays of sunshine that escapes the cloudy skies these days
3411. for a good cup of holiday spice coffee this morning
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!

Please pray for God's protection of

Protect our military

enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.

ADVICE FOR TODAY
When you select the right kind of chocolate it is like giving your insides a hug. Everyone needs a chocolate hug.
