I think I’m in love with John Down’s Christopher Norman Chocolates. Okay, so, last night, I got invited to this party in their space featuring Port Wine Truffles made with Napa Valey Dessert wine. (A portion of every sale went to charities handpicked by Auction Napa Valley.) No joke, I swear I ate at least 20 pieces of chocolate. I was gonna Twitter the whole night, but then I got whisked away to the back room where I met John Down. A mutual connection introduced us, and I got totally wrapped up in stories about his life, chocolate, his paintings and everything else. John was ridiculously sweet, warm, funny and open. I love chocolate. It’s rare that I meet people who actually make it.
The party folks and attendees were great! I met this chick from Forbidden Kiss; I’ve gotta check that show out sometime. (If you live in New York, you should check it out, too!) Also, at the party I met this random lawyer dude who was waaaaay too cute, shy and funny. I gave him my card. Actually, all the guys I met told me chocolate makes them think of sex! That makes sense; the brown stuff is an aphrodisiac, and it’s so precious that the Aztecs used to trade cacao seeds as money. Good times, good times.
More tomorrow. I got 3 hours of sleep Tuesday night and only a few hours more than that last night. In the meantime, for your reading pleasure, browse these about sex & chocolate from Amazon.com:

UPDATE / NOTE: Big fat thanks & drippy kisses go out to the folks who forwarded me the New York Times article about Emily Gould and blogging. Yes, I’d already read it & loved it. And, yes, I’ll write about it soon.
love love chocolate. actually, i’m going to buy some right now :P
the kind of chocolate that you would truly enjoy is from the Swiss and Belgium …
it’s so rich that it will get you to feel as if you have had some very good wine…
it’s that strong…… the stuff we get has, for want of a better word, been stepped
on…. so it’s not as potent as the real deal…… that and some whipped cream in
the right places and …… the first lick is the deepest…… free you mind on that….
sex and the single chocolate….. killer.
lamesabassman…….. let’s party like it’s 1999…..
@ Carolina Pereira: Christopher Norman Chocolates are great!
@ lamesabassman: Belgium chocolate? YUM!!!
Love Aphrodisiac
I used to get very hard only with thinking about my girlfriend however recently I have not been very successful at getting erections maybe because I have been very stressed out at work or maybe because I do just not want my girlfriend anymore.
I don’t know why I had never though before about making juices drinks. Right now I feel like I discovered a whole new way of snacking with juices drinks and keeping my body hydrated through the day with delicious tasting, vitamin filled Healthy Juices.
