Why Fondon't When You Can Fondue!
Good Living is an act of intelligence,by which we choose things which have an agreeable taste rather than those which do not.
Brillat-Savarin
Everything I eat should contain either garlic or chocolate, but rarely both...... although the thought of garlic dipped in dark chocolate is beginning to peak my creative taste buds as I write this. I may just have to give it a try, in all honesty just how bad could it be.
There is a funny quote that says;" Forget love-- I'd rather fall in chocolate"!!! But I say;" Remember love....and fall in the chocolate together"! Whether you skinny dip, chunky dunk or slowly wade in the chocolate pool just enjoy your time together, happy valentine's day.
