You’re born.
You didn’t ask for it, but it happened,
let’s not go into detail how, there it is.
Do what you will with that life (do no harm);
despite what some people will tell you,
you (mostly) choose how to live it.https://yadadarcyyada.com/2019/05/30/you-live-you-die-in-between-theres-chocolate/

Death

You’ll die. I’ll die. None of us gets out alive. We didn’t ask to be here. Hopefully we had some good times along the way, but we’re all going to die, one way or another. Don’t have to like it; there it is. Someday you’ll blow out the last candle on your birthday cake. Answer a door to a Mister Death, something about the reaping. Go gentle into that good night or rage against it, but don’t just kill time getting there. Until then, hope you have the time of your life.https://yadadarcyyada.com/2019/05/30/you-live-you-die-in-between-theres-chocolate/

      4. They’ve always told it us it was ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ but maybe they meant “Please can I have a cookie” and “Thank you for the cookie”?

  9. “Chocolate is salad” makes me realize I have misclassified so many foods, for example: cakes, cookies, doughnuts – all made with flour which comes from wheat, a plant.

    1. Tell me about it, hence the food fantasy…sigh. Why did they make food so good that isn’t good for you? Seems cruel. But chocolate, no one can convince me it could be bad. 😉

  12. I just ate a HUGE triple dark fudge chunky chocolate chip cookie in the car. It was delicious and I loved every single bite. I dropped a chunk on the floor but decided it was best not to eat that bit, but it was a close call. Love your post, like always. So much fun….like always.

    1. I’m so sorry. Maybe soon they’ll find a way to help. Until then, what else do you like, was it on my list? I’ve had to give up onions and garlic which I’ve begun to suspect the world runs on, like a biofuel. 😉

  16. Donna, your words are like chocolate.
    And thank heaven for “the chocolate in between,” because the things sandwiching it have been rough lately.
    I admit the death talk is worrisome and hope you are all right.
    But then, maybe Death likes chocolate too… https://teagansbooks.com/2013/02/13/a-valentine-for-you/

    But … don’t fear, I read that global warming is threatening the crops that lad to chocolate, that and coffee.

    Imagine a hotter world without chocolate and coffee.

Especially your last ones: lasagna, Reuben, and popcorn! Made lasagna last night. Think it’s time for a Reuben now! And definitely popcorn with a movie tonight! My, how you inspire me!! 💞👍🏽

      Was the lasagna all melty with cheese, I can almost smell it. And if loving a Reuben is wrong, I don’t wanna be right. Popcorn, are you going for plain, buttered, caramel or topped? 😉
