Once again thanks to my west coast brother who knows what I like, I learned that today is "World Chocolate Day." Beyond national or international, chocolate definitely deserves a 'world' day. For me dark chocolate is the very best, but I know there are some milk chocolate lovers out there.
I am a huge Harry Potter fan and I think it's interesting that in the Harry Potter novels chocolate is used to make people feel better after run ins with dementors and other types of evil. Interesting but not surprising. I know it can make me feel better.
Right now, for example, I am eating a large chunk of dark chocolate as I write this, in hopes that it will lessen the despair I am feeling after being beaten by 27 points in Scrabble this evening.
I think it's beginning to work but perhaps I will need another piece or maybe two. Happily chocolate is one of the things we always keep on hand.
