Burst of Chocolate


Sensations of chocolate bursting at every bite!


Some days are sunny days, some days are bitter days, some days are cloudy days, some days are rainy days and some days are ..... chocolate days!

I REALLY LIKE the chocolate days... the days that feel like a treat! These days seem to be so easy, run smoothly and offer benefits that we have not expected. After all the days of fighting for control, hurting hearts, bitter tears, non-understanding....then POW! Along comes the most delectable of days....

Just 'knowing' that chocolate days are coming, makes me stronger. I can take the disappointments, knowing that chocolate days are coming.

And here on earth, we cannot comprehend the "chocolate days to come"... our Maker is planning them right now! Endless days filled with no tears, pain, disappointments, sickness, hurt... just peace, love, joy, happiness for EVERMORE.

I can endure, be confident in the 'knowing'... better days are ahead, chocolaty days...

Found this recipe... cannot wait to try... hope they will make my/your day turn into a special kind of happy day! Of course, if you don't have time to bake, a Hershey's or Dove Chocolate Bar will substitute just fine!
