⌭⌭ one year later ....

and I'm still eating chocolate:
I once had a severe habit:
cocoa with everything
even for breakfast:
but now ....
                                       just for treats:
this is my chocolate book and the star of my first blog:
one whole year ago:
it was made specially for me by the beautifully 
creative artist Louise :
a gift for my birthday many years ago:
it is deliciously brown and now slightly bent on the edges:
it had been in storage for a few years until last
year when I rediscovered it:
now it's nearly filled with wrappers
from around the world:
yes, I collect them:
some are sent to me ....
these from Tomika in Fukuoka, Japan:
these from Justine and Remy in Brisbane, Australia:
I eat the chocolate and keep the wrappers for my collection:
my best friend takes delight in finding ones with silly names:

thank you to the poptastic Dave @ planet mondo 
for convincing me to start a blog:
it's put me in touch with some fabulously interesting 
and likeminded people:

I'm just the same as everyone else:
sometimes
milk or dark:
hazelnut+raisin or sour cherry:
still the 'undisputed chocolate girl':
