Chocolate


This afternoon I am watching the movie "Chocolat" while I am browsing and writing. I love the spirit and fearlessness of the main character, and of course, I could look at Johnny Depp all day long. Most of all, I love the gorgeous images of chocolate in all of it's decadent forms.

This reminds me that I must add more chocolate quotes to the website. I know there are women out there who are indifferent to chocolate and all of it's mind altering effects... I just don't know who they are!
As for me, the darker the better. Thank goodness the medical community has decided that dark chocolate is good for you.

"I like my men like I like my chocolate... a little bit sweet and very rich."

Be glad of Life

Be glad of Life
because it gives you the chance to Love, and to Work, and to Play,
and to look up at the Stars.

I love that. I love it so much that I put it on my livingroom wall. Really big so that I can see it and remember it every day. Yes, I do this stuff for a living so you would assume that my walls are filled with quotes and signs and all kinds of wisdom and/or wittiness..... well, that isn't so.

I discovered long ago that the things that sell the best and appeal to the most people are not necessarily the things that I want to live with in my home. So I have only a few things on my walls.

This quote reminds me that even though it may be midnight and I'm just getting home, I can pause on my back step and look up, and see the most dazzling display... just for me. How amazing is that?

A very fine place to start...

The first post is always the most difficult.
Whew!
Now that's over with, I can get on with things.
