Day 3: Your first love

Well, so much for being able to stick with writing everyday...I guess that's what trying to deal with the stress of work and finals will do to you. Nevertheless, I am back!

My first love...this is almost a loaded post so I decided to have fun with it and not go into the troubled past of the first "person" I fell in love with....



Chocolate. My first real "love" for something-besides all the usual things you love as a child i.e. Beauty and the Beast and my teddy bear that I never let out of my sight. I don't remember the first time I had chocolate, but I'm sure it was an instant attraction considering I still have cravings for it at least once a day. I mean really, how could you not? Do you see how delicious those little chocolate candies look? It almost makes me wish I could reach through the computer and have them right now...sort of. It's still fairly early so breakfast food sounds a little more delicious than chocolate right now.

Here are just a few examples of why chocolate is not only fantastic but why it deserves credit as my first love:

"What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate." - Katherine Hepburn

"All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt." - Charles M. Schulz

"Caramels are only a fad. Chocolate is a permanent thing." - Milton Snavely Hershey

"Don't wreck a sublime chocolate experience by feeling guilty. Chocolate isn't like premarital sex. It will not make you pregnant. And it always feels good." - Lora Brody, Growing Up on the Chocolate Diet

So, there's just a little insight to one of my not-so-secret desires and guilty pleasures. I think chocolate will serve me forever as a good replacement for my first love!
