Merriam-Webster: Chocoholic--a person who craves or compulsively consumes chocolate
After visiting with Joe and Elaine this past weekend, I have been prompted to ponder the human heart's desire for not love, but sugar. Specifically, chocolate.
If you didn't know, Joe and Elaine are on a "diet," eating "healthy" so they say. Throughout the duration of my stay this past weekend, they fed me broccoli, squash, rice, and chicken with no desserts of any kind, leading me to believe they were actually eating right. However, the health kick doesn't seem to have truly 'kicked' in because after being gone all day on Saturday, I returned to receive reports of ice cream cones, nachos, and fudge-brownie sundaes. You see, that's the diet I want to be on.
Then yesterday a chocolate bar appeared out of no where...BAAM, it just appeared in Elaine's hand, it was crazy! She was like Houdini! This has led me to believe that she may be a raging chocoholic in denial, with chocolate stashes and other sweets hid all over the house.
But in her defense, she's not the only one craving chocolate these days....in fact, she has inspired me!!!
I recently found a new and brilliant way to improve cereal. As Americans, we love our cereal. Most everyone has their favorite cereal, usually the brands loaded with sugar (which Dad never let us have as kids). Well I recently started adding a little bit of heaven to my cereal.
That's right, chocolate syrup on the cereal!!! It's chocolate milk and cereal at once, in one single bite, absolutely DELICIOUS!!!
Dad would never have allowed that in the little house on the prairie, but guess what, I don't live with Dad anymore. I live by my own rules now and if I want chocolate on my cereal than by golly I'm putting sugar filled chocolate syrup on my cereal. Who gets the last laugh now HAHAHA
