My husband took our 2-year-old grocery shopping today so I could chat uninterrupted with my sister via Skype (she's in Uganda).Shanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06267793335415078380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-75951761444805268572012-02-12T18:59:32.876-05:002012-02-12T18:59:32.876-05:00@ Lil - Thanks so much.

I just loved the coffee there. Unfortunately, it didn't last long. I found the closest thing was to use a French Press, it is really easy and wonderful.<br /><br />@ Terry - My DH loves thin mints. I like mint, and chocolate, just not together. I know, I'm strange.<br /><br />@ Judy - Dark chocolate is my absolute favorite too! My son finally got his drivers license and the best thing about it is now I can send him to the grocery store or to pick up his sisters. He's happy to drive, I'm happy not to. It's wonderful!<br /><br />@ Judy~ I love Dove Dark Chocolate too--milk, not so much. And I totally agree that DH is a real keeper, especially when he does the laundry (grin). I love your mantra too--Showing means so much more than telling in writing and in life.<br /><br />@Elf2060 - Anything from See's is fine with me. I have a friend from Seattle who still sends me a box every now and then.<br /><br />@ Quiltlady - I don't have a problem buying my own gifts, but he has to pay for them, and believe me, if I'm doing the buying, it won't come cheap. I say, shop away, my friend!Robin Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16262933225938609682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-40382108547507921762012-02-12T16:33:06.031-05:002012-02-12T16:33:06.031-05:00I remember when I was younger and first discovered...I remember when I was younger and first discovered dark chocolate.

What...Dove Dark Chocolate and Lindt milk chocolate. What a fun excerpt! Added this to my TBR list!<br /><br />A man who will happily sacrifice his prized possession, by his own choice, for love is a keeper.<br /><br />I've had a mantra in my head for years: Don't tell me you love me, show me. If you show me, then I'll believe you when you tell me.<br /><br />I want to say I don't expect the grand gesture, and yet what woman doesn't want to know the man she adores would do anything for her. I've dated guys who have done the grand gestures, and it seemed more for them than for me. The men who still bring a smile to my face when I think of them are the ones who were consistently there for me. What they did wouldn't have been called a grand gesture by most people, but it was to me.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843239483061220089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-6803327018385041332012-02-12T09:07:21.881-05:002012-02-12T09:07:21.881-05:00I love Chocolate though dark is my favorite.
