National Chocolate Day! Not to be confused with National Chocolate Covered Cherry Day, which is in Janaury, or with Chocolate Mint Day, which is in February. Remember not to confuse today with National Chocolate Caramel Day or National Chocolate-Covered Raisin Day, which both land in March. Be careful not to mix up today with April's National Chocolate-Covered Cashew Day or May's National Chocolate Chip Day. It's especially important not to confuse today with National Milk Chocolate Day because everyone knows that comes in July. If you're not from the US, you probably know that International Chocolate Day is in September, which also includes National White Chocolate Day. Whatever you do, don't think today is National Bittersweet Chocolate With Almonds Day because that's not until November. And if by now you're really confused, just wait until December 16th because that's National Chocolate Covered Anything Day and you won't have to worry about it. And finally, if you have a headache from reading all this, do yourself a favor and go eat some chocolate. It is National Chocolate Day, silly!
National Chocolate Day. It's a good thing.
ReplyDelete*\o/* Hooray for chocolate! I believe it to be a magical super food. :0)

Yum! Any reason to eat chocolate works for me!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I'm out of chocolate! (I keep my own private stash, too...) I'll have to remedy that right away.
ReplyDeleteBish -- Yes, it is a very good thing!
ReplyDeleteLOL Christy -- I think you're onto something there.
Kelly -- Same here!
LOL Adrienne! I really love the chocolate bars from Endangered Species. They have an 88% cocoa one called Extreme Dark. Target has them on clearance for $1.88 or so and they're usually over $2 each. I've been buying them and have a bunch stashed away for some day when I'm "losing it" -- LOL!
You can never have enough chocolate days!
ReplyDeleteAs a writer and lover of all things chocolate, I feel it's important to faihfully observe each of these special days:)
ReplyDeleteAnon -- I totally agree!
ReplyDeleteKim -- You can count on me to observe each and every one! ;)
My hips love chocolate, I feed it to them almost daily!

Every day could probably be NCD, there are enough varieties!
ReplyDeleteBrenda -- That pyramid works for me! One of my weaknesses at Christmas are chocolate covered cherries. I used to get the ones with liquour in them from Trader Joes when I lived in CA. Mmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteDee -- There sure are a lot of varieties, but hey, can there ever be enough? ;)

Seriously? It's national chocolate day? I had no clue. And I AM EATING CHOCOLATE AS I READ THIS! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh come on though, white chocolate day ???. . . that shouldn't be included with the good stuff - the rich, tall, dark and handsome chocolates of choco-lot-os-ville...it's the only way to go.
ReplyDeleteMawhahaha! I am a chocolate fiend.
Hey, who needs chocolate days to eat chocolate - surely every day is a chocolate day!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I can't believe I missed National Chocolate Day! Not that I didn't have chocolate yesterday, I just would have had more ;)
