Chocolate is my downfall. It’s my “go-to” for any reason whatsoever.
Why do I like chocolate so darn much? I could guess and say maybe it’s because my father was also a chocoholic. He could eat a half-gallon of chocolate ice cream in one sitting. We even had a “candy drawer” in every kitchen of every house we lived in. My children even knew about the infamous “candy drawer” at Grandpa’s house!
At my dad’s funeral we had one of those huge Hershey chocolate bars on the table of memorabilia. I was so tempted to slip it into the casket with him! (You might as well learn right now that I’m kind of a rebel like that.)
But instead we took it back to the house afterwards and split it up between all of us and had a “chocolate toast” to good ‘ole Daddy-O.
I will never, ever turn down an offer of anything that contains chocolate. And every time I think of chocolate, I think of my Daddy.
