I found this at the grocery and it followed me home.
Just so you know, here is the mathematical calculation that convinced me it was the practical thing to do:
Chocolate ice cream + chocolate bits + chocolate candy = full of win
It is, too.
Since it’s Tuesday, I’m posting at Fatal Foodies, today on the subject of dim sum.

April 23, 2012 at 2:16pmWho doesn’t love chocolate! It looks so yummy! I am already too much into chocolates and at a bakery nearby they offer a death by chocolate cake. Has moist dark chocolate cake, chocolate mouse, chocolate cookies and chocolate ganache! Delicious! And that is what my character’s weakness is!

April 6, 2011 at 8:41amI don’t care for the marshmallow in Rocky Road. Otherwise–YEAH!
Sarah
April 6, 2011 at 2:38amWow, I’ve never thought of this. I’ll definitely have to in the future. My food weaknesses are… hmm… I love wine and margaritas. lol
Marian Allen
April 6, 2011 at 8:40amSounds good to me, Sarah!

April 5, 2011 at 11:33pmDefinitely sounds like the sundae for me. I tend to over-chocolatize things sometimes according to some people but it all seems fine to me.

April 6, 2011 at 8:40amOver-chocolatize…? This word does not make sense. This cannot be done. 😉

April 5, 2011 at 6:10pmI’m not a big chocolate fan but that sounds yummy.
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 9:14pmIt is! I only eat a little at a time, because it tastes so rich, even though it’s lower in fat than “regular” ice cream. I don’t know if the milk is lower in butterfat or what, but it’s sure good!

April 5, 2011 at 4:29pmLove dark chocolate.
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 9:13pmOh, yes, Jerri! Dark chocolate is lovely. 🙂

April 5, 2011 at 4:04pmThe characters in my current novel don’t have any food weaknesses… though now I think I may have to introduce one, since it would play really well in one particular chapter.
I, on the other hand, succumb to ice cream on a regular basis.
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 9:11pmI go for months without even thinking about ice cream, then I MUST HAVE IT! I especially like ice cream with bits in it–fudge, nuts, peanut butter. Nom, nom, nom!

April 5, 2011 at 3:41pmLove death by chocolate. Such a sumptuous dessert. Your tantalizing image makes me want to head to the grocery store right now!
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 9:09pmThis is so good! Hope your grocery store didn’t disappoint you. 🙂

April 5, 2011 at 3:37pmI have to admit I never think in those terms…but I will from now on. Thanks for a great post, and making me think deeper about my characters.
As for me? Easy. Wine and chocolate…sad but true!
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 9:09pmAnne, wine and chocolate are GOOD for you! Health food! lol!

April 5, 2011 at 9:15amMy main character prefers salty to sweet. She gets antsy when she can see the bottom of her jar of Spanish Peanuts. She only buys them from one source…Nifty’s Nuthouse in Wichita, Kansas. (True place from my childhood. I’m like my main character. Can’t live without a salty snack!) 🙂
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 10:48amOh, popcorn! Must have popcorn! Buttery and salty. White cheddar cheese flavored. Mmmmm….

April 5, 2011 at 8:04amOooh.. I love this concoction already. My MC loves cookies 😉
Following you from A-Z challenge!
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 10:47amCookies! I love them, too, if they’re chocolate chip and soft. No like crunchy cookies! Do NOT want! 😉

April 5, 2011 at 7:57amMy main character right now loves Bitter Gourd. Go figure. I only realised it after I read your prompt here. Thanks for the prompt suggestions on my blog!
Marian Allen
April 5, 2011 at 10:46amYou’re welcome for the prompt suggestions. 🙂 Bitter Gourd. Now I’m intrigued.
