Chocolate Nirvana

I didn't get to go to the Anchorage Blogger meet up yesterday sponsored by Scribbit so I decided to stop at the Modern Dwellers Chocolate Lounge and get a cup of drinking chocolate. Lest you think this was mere hot chocolate, let me correct that erroneous idea. No no no...drinking chocolate is about as far from that as you can imagine. It's like if you took a bar of really high quality chocolate, melted it, poured it into a cup and drank it. It's thick, rich, ohso divine....ohhh. For those who have read them - in the old Agatha Christie mystery books, her detective Hercule Poirot drank chocolate, now I know what it was. As I drove home, ingesting my chocolate and trying to get the last swigs of it out of the cup, I thought it was the closest you could get to having chocolate intravenously fed. It was absolute decadence...ohhhhh....now I must be left to my cravings.

I'm sorry I missed you! I'll have to plan the next one when it's not during working hours. I'm really going to try one of their sardine chocolates. It's on my "to do before I die" list. :)

Remember when we went to Cadbury land in England? Did you try the liquid chocolate there? SOOOO GOOOD! I wish we had some place like that here in SF area

Oh Becky I do remember Cadbury world but I don't remember the liquid chocolate - dang. I'm surprised you don't have a place like that in SF area - a big place like that might - I do see drinking chocolate at the store sometimes but I've never bought it. I'm sure I could get the same effect by melting a hershey bar (excuse me Cadbury bar!) and drinking that though!
