whats your chocolate style

Have you ever wondered how the way you love chocolate shows what kind of person you are. well I just took a quiz and my results were as follows , I am a "CHOCOLATE-ANY-STYLER"
You're an exuberant lover of all things chocolate, from bars and candy to desserts. Chocolate is both a treat and a pick-me-up. It might be said that you're a bit more enthusiastic than discriminating. In general, you've got a serious sweet tooth. You're fun, warm, and love a party. You're non-judgmental and open to new things and new people. If it looks like chocolate, you'll eat it.

Boy were they right.
I am not ashamed to say that I LOVE chocolate, rich and creamy, with ice-cream or as a drink. Chocolate is the one type of food that there is no specific time that you have to have it, you can eat chocolate whenever and wherever you like. you can put it in a cake or serve it on its own, trust me there will be no complaining.
Did you know that chocolate causes certain endocrine glands to secrete hormones that affect your feelings and behavior by making you happy. Therefore, it counteracts depression, in turn reducing the stress of depression. Your stress-free life helps you maintain a youthful disposition, both physically and mentally. So, eat lots of chocolate.

Us women are always worried about weight and how much we are eating but lets think, how many times have you been in a room alone with a man naked? And how many times have those men told you to leave? None. that's because men don't really care, unless they are actually deep down gay he he. I personally am sick and tiered of waking up feeling so bad about having had that extra spoon of chocolate ice-cream or having ordered the chicken burger at spur instead of the salad. So I am going to enjoy life, I am not going to pig out but the way I see it,Life is too short to be worrying about tomorrow, eat that damn burger or pasta enjoy life and drinks lots of water. And remember life without chocolate is no life at all and chocolate is cheaper than therapy and you don't need an appointment.

Chocolate ( every womans sin)

 My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European chocolates which is, for sure, better than sex. I am a chef and therefore food is a passion. Chocolate is like that go to food when your feeling down. The superiority of chocolate, both for health and nourishment, will soon give it the same preference over tea and coffee in America which it has in Spain. If you are not feeling well, if you have not slept, chocolate will revive you. But you have no chocolate! I think of that again and again! My dear, how will you ever manage?  Chocolate just has a way of making people happier, you cannot eat chocolate and be angry or sad, I once tried to eat chocolate and cry at the same time and it does not work. Chocolate can only make you happy, it is that go to food for any occasion. When I need to plan a menu and I need a really great dessert, something that will knock the socks of people I always go to chocolate first, because nine out of ten people love chocolate and the tenth person always lies. Chocolate has to be one of the most romantic foods out there, just think about it, a candle lit dinner for two champagne, a great meal, what more could you ask for, well I don't know about you but strawberries dipped in dark chocolate with lint hot chocolate would just be the perfect finishing touch for me. chocolate is natures way of making up for mondays, so next time that it is a Monday and you are feeling down make sure you have chocolate on hand.
