We all should give back to our society at some point in our life. It makes you feel good and makes it a better place to live. So this weekend I did my annual support for charity by attending the Chocolate Lover's Fantasy Event for the NH Caregivers. It is a tough job I know, but someone has to do it. Four hours of pure chocolate bliss traveling from table to table tasting everything there is that is chocolate. We are talking cookies, brownies, cheesecakes, ice cream and chocolate dipping fountains but also scallops, martinis and Chai tea. It is fun to bake, but so much more fun when you can taste the creative genius of others. My friend was so giddy waiting in line to get in I thought she was going to pee her pants. You have to kind of treat this event like a wine tasting. Take small bites and if the taste isn't knocking your socks off then purge the rest. If you don't, you face a huge sugar hangover. Although everything I ate was mmm..mmm..good (I stayed away from the diet and good for you tables) some of the things that stuck out in my head was a white chocolate bread pudding, a dark chocolate macaroon, and a chocolate brownie with espresso chocolate sauce on top. Needless to say I was glad I wore my stretchy waist pants.
