Wow. Both of those mint things sounded really great. It's a good thing I just ate.smiley - winkeye

Sorry I wasn't on yesterday, but I had to make a family get together work out so I didn't have time.

Iron deficiancy, eh? With all the smiley - choc lovers out there that theory could pass as the truth, if it is or not.

smiley - hug See you later!

That's ok...just hope things did 'work out'!

Yeah, I'd have to say the Cocoa Camino-the Canadian one, (although it's made in Switzerland smiley - huhhttp://www.lasiembra.com/home.htm )is the one I prefer. But they don't seem to mention it on the site...maybe it's newer & they haven't updated the site. I did notice that they say they're expanding distribution in the U.S.!

Iron deficiency or whatever, any reason or justification for eating a bit more smiley - choc is fine with me!smiley - smiley

smiley - hugSee you!

I had another Bissinger's today. Vanilla Butter Creme. Ooh. Really great. It was very rich, a bit thirst- inducing, but you could really taste the flavor of the vanilla.
Dark smiley - choc too. Woah.

I'll talk to you later.
smiley - hug

Brownies.... well, I had some breakfast a few minutes ago, but that still sounds really good. Yesterday I had a chocolate leaf. It was actually two back to back solid chocolate leaves, one milk one dark. Simple, but delightful all the same.smiley - smiley

I'm a social butterfly. Went to a great party last night, going to another this afternoon.

smiley - hugSee you.

Yeah I just had some breakfast awhile ago. Another brownie last night. The leaves sound good, I get these Dutch smiley - chocs http://www.droste.nl/data/content/engels/index.php. The company makes what they call a 'pastille' (kind of like a thick coin). Anyway they have one that's half white & half milk smiley - choc as well as one that's half dark & half milk. I really like-as in almost addicted to-their Extra Dark ones, they're 72% cocoa solids! I'm smiley - drooling just thinking about them! Guess what I'm smiley - running to get?smiley - winkeye

Enjoy the party smiley - hug & see you!

What are you smiley - running for?

Rasberry creme. Definately not as good as the strawberry creme I had, but great nonetheless.

The Extra Dark look awesome. Lucky you.smiley - winkeyeI'm jealous.

The party was really good. I actually went to three parties over the weekend, and all three of them were great.

smiley - hugUntil next time... smiley - smiley

Yeah, I'm not much of a runner(as if you didn't know).
Hey! Speaking of which, I ran a mile (yes, a MILE) in 10:03. Ten minutes, THREE seconds. I was hoping for under 10 minutes, but oh well.

Chocolate caramel... : I was impressed. I'm not one for caramel. But this didn't really stick to my teeth at all and the smiley - choc was more apparent. Not one for jelly. I hate Jell-O.

I was so tired. One party was 2 hrs, another probably 5 hrs, and the other an hr and a 1/2 long. Better now, though.

smiley - hug see you

Yes I remember you saying that you prefer cycling...10.3, that's pretty good(& just barely over 10, certainly better than 10.53 or 57 or something)!

Yeah, smiley - choc & caramel is a good combination. Great when it's smiley - choc with a caramel syrup or like a caramel sundae topping! smiley - drool Hmm, got me thinking of smiley - choc now...maybe that smiley - chocmarzipan bar?

Well, you made it...points for endurance!smiley - winkeye

Take care smiley - hug & see you!

Thank you. I was also proud.

smiley - choc marzipan bar.... mmm, good! I don't really like carmel toppings, but oh well.

Sorry, not much time to talk.

How's your coffee going?

smiley - hug See you


ACE's welcome mindchatham!

Post 114

jaz'd(ace & yada yada *sigh* chocolate yada)

Yes, very well done!

The marzipan bar was good! We'll just say caramel syrup then!smiley - winkeye

The smiley - coffeeroasting is going well...good beans I've tried recntly(IMHO)are Bolivian Organic & Tanzanian Peaberry.

Right smiley - hug see you!

mmmmm smiley - droolmmmmmm Cranberry & pecan, that sounds great! Maybe ir's a fruit'n'nut thing.

Yes the Tanzanian Peaberry is nice, but then Sumatran & Cuban are also good!

Does Wednesday work? Oh well.

Yes, the cranberry pecan was delightful. Know what was even more delightful? I had a French Almond dark smiley - choc yesterday.
Oh, man it was great! I thought that I was in heaven! The only downside is that I don't have any more of those Bissinger's things(the Frenchy was the last onesmiley - sadface)
I have a 60% cacao espresso bar now. smiley - drool It's pretty
big, but I'm rationing myself. It seems neither of us run out of gourmet and organic smiley - choc to talk about. Strange.

smiley - hug Yes. Have a good day.smiley - smiley

jaz'd(ace & yada yada *sigh* chocolate yada)

Oooh those all sound good!smiley - droolEspecially the 60% espresso...I've just got a Ritter Sport smiley - cappuccino bar(minimum 55% cocoa solids), but smiley - ermit's milk smiley - choc...which is ok for cappucino I guess!

Ooh, nice!

I made some marzipan yesterday. I didn't have any almond paste, so I used almond butter. I'd never had it before, and I must say, it was very good. Still is, in factsmiley - winkeye.

Talk to you later,

smiley - hug
