You know those disgusting giant chocolate Christmas cards companies send? WHAT IS THE FREAKING POINT? Do people actually EAT them? They actually hold the platter-sized slab of chocolate to their lips, gnaw timidily, only to leave a few tooth marks and a lot of drool?

On on EARTH came up with the idea of such a thing. If people don't leave them in the box to turn to cocoa powder, they leave them in the box to feed the thriving mice. At best, they feed it to their children, fueling their demon souls. I cleverly chopped it up to make cookies, but, I am merely the exception to the rule with my unusual amount of savvy common sense. Or maybe the joke is on me, to watch me carefully carve up two pounds of very solid chocolate with a very dull butcher knife. Why can't it be DARK chocolate? Because you would then have to pry away MY little demon fingers.


And that would be all too much fun. It would be MY little CHOCOLATE fueled soul.

This odd narrative is my life. I ended up in Pittsburgh, of all places--from the beach. I have no hobbies, other than cooking excessively and eating microwave popcorn. I enjoy shopping, the Food network, hiding the remote so the Food network cannot be turned off, find ethnic food stores and restaurants and reading voraciously. My life is decidedly pedestrian.


I worked in the car business where I was required to be ruthless and soul-less wench, which is when I started this project. Since then, I've kept it up because secretly, I've always wanted to join the military. Every male in my mother's family has joined and I quietly entertain thoughts of joining. I haven't yet and don't know if I ever will, but sending the troops cookies keeps me sane. it makes me think I still have a shred of human kindness left in my withering soul. it's a small way for me to salute the men and women who are brave enough to fight for freedom. And makes me feel like I'm contributing toward troop morale--even if I'm not. So if you want to help, send me addresses of troops you know stationed overseas. you may also contribute toward the cost of chocolate chips, but don't feel obligated, that link is here only by request.
