I'm a Chocoholic

Okay, I admit it. I'm a chocoholic. Now you know. I totally, totally love chocolate. I mean, who doesn't love chocolate? My foodie friend, Teresa, at Mexican Chocolate Lore and More awarded me this super cute little chocolate guy. Teresa really knows her chocolate and her blog is delicious. Go on over for a bite, but try not to drool all over your computer screen at the pictures. Don't worry; she's posted the recipes so you can make them at home.

In the tradition that she started by awarding this to all the people who have left comments on her blog, I'm following in her footsteps and leaving little chocolate footprints all over the blogosphere by passing this award to all the really sweet people who have visited
my blog and left comments.

Of course, it goes back to Teresa at Mexican Chocolate Lore and More because she always comes over here and says hi and leaves really nice comments.

Meg at Megan's Munchies because she's really sweet and she lives in Texas and she weathered Ike and she's always cooking something.

Joan at Foodalogue because she was the first foodie to follow me and besides that, she can make cauliflower taste good.

Patsy at Family, Friends and Food because she is into family, friends, and food--what else is there?

Camille at Croque Camille because she likes eggplant pizza.

Meryl at Inspired Bites because her bites are so inspiring.

Kat at A Good Appetite because she posts something new and delicious almost every day.

Melissa at Alosha's Kitchen because all she wanted to do was make potato salad and all hell broke loose.

Foodycat at Foodycat because she likes food and she likes cats.

Arlene at The Food of Love because she's already a chocoholic and makes uncommonly good brownies.

Reeni at Cinnamon, Spice, and Everything Nice because that's what little girls are made of and she's writing a cookbook.

Joan at Squidoo because she writes family cookbooks and shows other people how to capture their family and food memories.

And last, because you always have room for more sweetness, Terri
at Merrily Musing Mom because she is adopting a little girl, Sophia, from China and is writing a fundraising cookbook to help bring her daughter home. Let's all contribute some recipes!

Thanks to all of you who have read my blog and left comments. Spread some chocolate love around and be sure to visit Teresa's chocolate blog.

Gloria, you are such an adorable nutcase! I'm so glad you like the award. It's just a humble little slice of "thank you" for being so sweet from a humble little blog that wants to grow up to be big and strong. Hugs.

He he, hilarious. Thank you Gloria. I will proudly display this on my awards page.

Hope you had a truly lovely weekend!

Terri Fisher said...

Thank you, Gloria, for such a "sweet" award! I really appreciate the publicity you are giving my little cookbook project, too. Hope all is well in your piece of the world!

Joan said...

Great idea! and I love my award! and I agree on that chocolate! Gotta have it! Thank you for mentioning my cookbook Squidoo lens! I do love family cookbooks!

What a cute little chocolate bear. Just discovered your blog via the Foodie Board from Leftover Queen -- i love your blog concept and how you are sharing your tips for success in cookbook writing and publishing!

Thank you so much! I am indeed a chocoholic. The reason I didn't include any specifically chocolate items on my Frenchie Fifteen is because I firmly believe that the best chocolate in the world right now is being produced in the United States. If you're unfamiliar with DeVries (Colorado) or Patric (Missouri) chocolates, I highly recommend you check them out! :)

Reeni said...

Thanks Gloria! I love this award, you've made my day! I'll be sure to pass it on.

Meryl said...

Thank you, Gloria! You and Teresa both are sending it my way, and I'm happily going to accept and proudly display my chocolate obsession in this adorable award!

I don't know if you saw my comment on your comment about Buckwheat. I totally watched the Little Rascals every single day after school - definitely not too young here to remember them. I even named my dog Petey!
