Now this is my type of story, and I am sure my brother Incognitus will agree. I can also see some input on this from the moderators and Adminstrator, not to mention Anhelya. In IC XC, Father Anthony+

Anhelya, Remember, I will be going back to Belgium again soon. I think they will have France definitely beat when it comes to chocolate, but if you want to meet up and have a "taste off", I think I can manage it. We will just need to find judges. Any asters, oh I mean takers.  In IC XC, father Anthony+

Andrij, I'm shocked you would ever think some of us loosing focus of "fortifying the inner man"... (my problem is I am too focused on that)... DD

Ahhhh! Pani Rose, Dark chocolate is not only good for you, but it is also fasting. So you see no problem with the Fast approaching . In IC XC, Father Anthony+

Oh yes Belgian chocolates....*slow deep breath here*
Hershies tried to come this way but failed a few years ago. Seems we like the more UK style like Cadbury's more. I personally I like Lindt's as well (too much I hear some cry).
Yes I am trying to be sort of good and will a bit lighter hopefully by Easter(both of them).

Anybody interested in a Byzcath Cruise on the Baltic, and maybe a visit to Saint Petersburg, Kizhi and Moscow? We can have a sufficient supply of Imperial Torte shipped from Vienna to the group.

I think a pilgrimage of the venerable chocolate and pastry shoppes of Europe, combined with pilgrimages to holy sites could fill the soul and satisfy the pallatte.

Now chocolate is truly a serious matter indeed!
What is even more serious is the unfortunate issue which many struggle with: that of chocoholism! :p
