Death by . . .




Chocolate.
This weekend, Matt and I went to a fundraiser called Death by Chocolate for his work. Essentially, in addition to hors d'oeurvres and a little hobnobbing, we walked around a room, sampled chocolate truffles, triple chocolate mousse,

tuxedo chocolate pie, chocolate ravioli, chocolate dipped strawberries, chocolate cheesecakes, and more. You name it, we tasted it. Even "chocolate" chili--which pretty much tasted just like chili. After sampling all of it, you get to choose which one was your favorite, and vote for it. Does it get much better than that? I had a hard time deciding between the white chocolate covered potato chip cookies (sounds SO gross, but they were FANTASTIC!) and the tuxedo pie. Matt's favorite? The chili--the least chocolate thing in the room. Of course.

How come I never get to go to a fundraiser like that? You lucky girl. Was any of it as good as my rolo cookies?

I really feel badly for Matt...How can he pick Skittles over chocolate? I will never get that. Glad you had fun though and wish like crazy that my husband had fundraisers like that. Sadly, for whatever reason, dentists just don't go for that sort of thing.
