Well definitely have chocolate!!

And Dove chocolates!!

Fun story though. I was watching one of those food shows on tv and they were talking about chocolates and interviewing a lady who is a Dove chocolate author. She writes those things on the wrappers!

I used a picture of me standing on the rim of the Grand Canyon. Laughing. Then did some journaling about some funny things that had happened that day.

Another woman got a saying about whispering in the dark. She did a wonderful layout about things her sons talk to her about when she tucks them into bed at night.

Now, you all have an excuse to go buy chocolate!

I just saved a few wrappers and they are here on my table - they are supposed to be inspiration for a layout - yep, you get them from the weirdest places.

She writes them????? I'm sad :? - then who is Devin K in Virginia and Sherry A in Iowa and Dorothy S in Louisiana and Shirley K in Maryland - those are the names on the 4 I have here on my desk. Here I was thinking she takes bits of sayings from people who send them in :(

Until about a year ago, there was never a name assigned to the sayings. Then suddenly there they were. I noticed that a lot of them aren't as good as they used to be. Either that or I've eaten way too much chocolate. ;)
