that is true of neither life nor chocolates!

I like coconut. I sometimes like life. I love chocolate. I hated Forrest Gump.

We've got these chocolate truffles, I think the brand is Ce Moi or somesuch mangled French.

They are like orgasms in your mouth.

I even have to wait 15 minutes before I can have another one.

That's why you have to buy a box of chocolate-covered cherries, or Ferrero Rochers, or Almond Roca

I wish life were as good as Almond Roca!

it used to be possible to buy a box of just Hazelnut Whirls, but now if you want Hazelnut Whirls you have to buy a box of Roses and pick them out. So basically, life is like this - if you only get the things you like, you can be sure that this situation won't last and pretty soon you'll get a load of stuff you don't like so much and you'll have to sort through it to find what you really want.

newcastle upon tyne in england in the late 70's.
two men in their mid 30's are spending
a sunday afternoon reflecting by a canal...

and someone's pinched the orange cream from the bottom"

terry : "bloody 'ell"

clement and la frenais forever baby.

Aha but how do you explain the move by Quality Street to sell boxes of exclusively 'purple' or 'green' ones Mark?

Based on this box of Spanish chocolates I received as a gift for Xmas, there's hope for further discoveries in the chocolate world.

coconut chocolates = the kind other people leave behind so that deviant coconut lovers like myself get EVERY ONE IN THE BOX. Same for almonds and dark chocolate, people tend to avoid those when they just don't understand the goodness.

"it's a meat party in your mouth!"

It's the coffee flavoured ones that are the worst.

I've eaten too many chocolates because these days my teeth hurt if I eat anything too sweet. You might say I should look up a dentist. You might just say that, and you'd be OTM.

Never-the-less, I think I'll eat a Ghiradelli square now. A guy in my office gave me a whole bag of them as a welcome to our office gesture.

For a party in your mouth, you can't beat Polish plums in chocolate (actually prunes but some marketing guy got involved even in Eastern Bloc times).

White chocolates off earth now!

Dark chocolate love!

Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 24 January 2003 21:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I like white chocolate...

Black and White Unite and make coffee cream kids, guys.

N. (nickdastoor), Friday, 24 January 2003 22:40 (twenty-three years ago)

the coconut ones are the best ones!! you are all crazy!! save them for me

geeta, Friday, 24 January 2003 22:43 (twenty-three years ago)

You can have all the coconut ones -- that means I'm free to eat all the almond ones (hee hee)! I just wish chocolate-hazelnut candy and other goodies were more available in the U.S.
