Chocolate in the house!

My husband knows me all too well. Or maybe it's self preservation, because chocolate always tends to put me in a good mood, LOL! Oh, it's true, he only bought me ONE Lindt 85% dark chocolate bar, but as he pointed out, I didn't say anything about not buying other brands. (!!!!!)

He brought me home beautiful red and white tulips, which we will have to protect from the kitties, because Luna is a plant shredder and is most interested in the new arrival! But with luck, once they have bloomed, I can save the bulbs and replant in the front yard somewhere and hope they prosper. Yay! There's this whole section I'd like to do in bulbs, it's too shaded in summer because of a couple small trees, but in early spring, it is not and the color would be welcome there.

And he brought me home a couple of lovely Gillham & Grand dark chocolate and raspberry bars. And some individually wrapped dark chocolate squares, both raspberry flavor and orange. I'm afraid I immediately ate two squares in a moment of weakness.

The rest has been stashed. I'll try to only eat a square a day. But this will test my willpower rather severely. I nearly dived in as it was, as I was due for a meal. After the two squares, I reluctantly put the rest away and had a chocolate protein smoothie instead, which definitely helped me chill out on the chocolate craving.

Meanwhile, the poor guy is coughing still. I think I'll go make him some nice herbal tea in hopes that will soothe his throat some.

  1. Aww I hope DH feels better! I can picture you with the chocolate roflol! Not that I am not similar LOL! My dinner is up in the air also!

  2. I am doomed... was in a rush this morning and I ate one of the raspberry chocolate bars for BREAKFAST! There goes one 10% meal. Though, at least, with hubby sick, it doesn't look like I am going to need two 10% meals this week.

    At least this was only 3 bars and 4 single squares. You should have seen the pile for Christmas! I think there were at least 10 bars there.
