Is there a Chocolate Lover's Anonymous???

If so, I NEED IT!! DH & I had a lovely time Saturday night at the VON Chocolate Lovers Dinner & Dance. The chocolate fountain was so awesome. I want one, but will restrain myself from purchasing. It doesn't qualify as part of a balanced diet. :) Anyway, I'm getting all out of order. Friday night, DH & I had a fab time at Myrna & Bruce's. The ladies chatted about "The Secret" (see Oprah's Thursday show of last week - or google the book). And the guys laughed their butts off watching Break.com. DH is a huge fan and visits the site daily. It was a nice relaxing evening with great company.

Back to Saturday. I went for groceries, by myself. It's nice to get out of the house on my own sometimes. I spent a TON of money, knowing full well I have some money coming to me this week. We were so low on so many things (TP, paper towel, tissue, etc.). Plus, got a bit of booze for when my folks come up (today). It was a great to get out. Had a late lunch and got ready for our big date out. The dinner was quite nice, nothing over the top. Little disappointed about the desserts (which is what everyone was there for). They misjudged the number of people and we missed out on all the fab desserts they mentioned. We did indulge in the chocolate fountain, which was incredible. They also had a silent auction so we bid and won a few things. We also left with the chocolate centrepiece basket and 2 boxes of chocolates. Holy cow! I'm in withdrawl now!!!

Sunday was also a lovely relaxing day. Made yummy banana pancakes for the family and went to church in the a.m. Ran into Bayers' Lake for a few things then back home for lunch. Made 2 lasagnas (one for Shay's for supper, one for home tonight). E and I both went for naps while Daddy played video games. After we woke up, went over to Shay & Mark's. The kiddies had lots of fun playing while the adults visited. We had lasagna for supper and Shay's super yummy Caesar salad and garlic bread. After the kiddies went to bed, Shay & I worked on cards while the guys played v games. We headed home around 10:30. E woke up when we left and stayed awake the entire ride home!! Luckly, she went right to bed once we got in. And that was our fun weekend. Hope yours was great too!!
