Girls and Chocolate!!

What two things could go better together? I don't think there are many girls out there that when offered a time out, with chocolate involved refuse to make the effort to go. I was invited out on two occasions this last month for two fondue party nights. Now, fondue is not something you do often, or atleast I don't so of course I would love to go. Twice in one month now that is excieting!! Both parties were very different not to say that one was better then the other. Acutally you can't really compare them they were so different. From the chocolate involved; 'Bernard' to special chocolate chips, to the presentation; a fountain flowing with chocolate verses individual bowls, and of course the people make a huge difference; a birthday party with a house full of women to a small group of women around the dinning room table. Don't get me wrong I am not comparing the two as I said, I had an amazing time at both parties and wouldn't not have either of them any other way. I do have to admit though, earlier in one of my blogs I mentioned that I would love to have some time with women talking about life and not just about kids. Last night was just that. These are women that I am just starting to get to know through a small group sort of thing at church. Of course kids were brought up now and then as many of us moms have a story or two that can be related to a topic or something funny to share about how our kids interpret the things around them, but all in all we sat there around the table talking about life and laughing until almost midnight. It was just the sort of thing I was needing. Of course sitting in front of chocolate doesn't bother me either. So thanks girls for the time out. I know I said it in person but again Thanks!!
So to all those women out there that love chocolate; invite some friends over and have a fondue - what ever the style; in a fondue pot, individual bowls or even a fountain if you desire, it's definately worth the time invested into eachother's lives!!
Here's to chocolate and friends!!
