Thankful Thursday

Lately, I have had some cravings.

Not those kind of cravings!  Thankfully, pregnancy-induced cravings are a thing of the past.    

What I've been craving lately is chocolate.  Luscious, flavorful, dark chocolate

I love chocolate -- but most of all I love dark chocolate.  Even before it was fashionable to prefer dark chocolate, even before dark chocolate was lauded as the "healthy" chocolate, I LOVED dark chocolate.

As a child I can remember commandeering all of the Hershey's Special Dark bars from the bag of Hershey's Miniatures.  I had little interest in the milk chocolate Hershey bars, Mr. Goodbars, or Krackel bars.  I also remember being more than a little miffed that there were never as many Special Dark bars in comparison to the other varieties -- clearly at a tender age I had a strong recognition of injustice.

As I grew older I developed a more discriminating palate.
