Eat slowly and as much as you like. Just blame it on the day!!!



So many wonderful gooey chocolate treats. In July you might want to try some cool treats like chocolate ice cream or Chocolate soda.

Did you know Chocolate is a vegetable. It comes from the Cacao tree found in rain forests. So, when someone tells you to eat your vegetables just grab a bag of chocolate and enjoy.

Put a chocolate wreath outside your door. Well maybe fake chocolate in July so it doesn't melt. or a hungry neighbor wont come by and nibble on it.
