Oh, that chocolate looks really good. But the flowers are not only gorgeous, they’re much less fattening.

Hi Danielle!
I love dark chocolate. Especially Dove, but also the Lindt dark chocolate made of 70% cocoa in the white wrapper… mmm

But today, honestly, I think I want curry more than anything. It’s a good sign.

I can only IMAGINE the relief you feel knowing it will be over soon. (Or the relief you know you will feel AFTERWARD). And I will call you Dr. Danielle from then on!

You know, that’s just rude. Now I want chocolate, and do I have any in the house? (No.) But it’s just as well. With my lack of willpower, I would go through that whole bag of dove chocolates today.

Mmmmmmmm, daaaaaark. Yum.

Sorry, Amber, I don’t know that one. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of Indian Blanket wildflowers…until now. But, my goodness, they’re just lovely. I, too, am quite fond of the changing colors on the petals. God sure is a fantastic artist, isn’t He?

And I ne’er say “ne’er” either. Heh.

But I do looooove me some chooooooocolate. Wish we were closer. We could OD together.

Death by chocolate.

Sounds divine, doesn’t it?

Not. Fair.

You know, you still *ahem* have a chocolate gift waiting here nicely wrapped up in it’s package on my bar screaming at me saying “Gee I wish someone would eat me!”

You know, it takes a lot of will power to *not* eat chocolate.

But if a piece of chocolate just happens to fall out of the wrapper, you know, you just gotta clean up that mess.

Also, I love the Indian blanket flowers. Those were particularly my favorite wildflowers, along with bluebonnets. I think I remember being told a legend behind the Indian blanket flowers, but goodness knows if I can remember the whole thing correctly.

I think this may be time to see if LB knows anything about that legend. She STILL lives in Texas. Oh, how I wish I could move back. *sigh*

I love your flower shots. They are so pretty, and blend well with the sunlight out today. Maybe you are cheery because there has been sunlight the last couple of days.

I’m also one of those people who loves the flowers that change color mid petal or in the center. Teehee. I just like color, so more color is much better.

Have a wonderful Friday.
