In praise of chocolate


I read in so many blogs the praise of coffee and how important it is in the life of most people. Now I have to  tell you: I can't stand it!! I don't like the taste and even the smell I don't like at all. But if it's a chocolate with some taste of coffee, it's ok.


I've liking chocolate since I remember to exist and I like it in every form: hot chocolate, or cold in the Summer, bars of chocolate and in every shape and form.


I like it in cakes and over them, puddings, biscuits...You name it.



I've always received chocolates and books as presents, being it my birthday, Christmas and Easter. I have the memory of being a chilld, seated, reading a book and eating chocolate, mainly at Easter time, breaking the chocolate eggs and rabbits and everything, and eating it while reading.

Those were the times! Just a child and reading all the time - which, to say the truth, never ended, either the reading or the chocolate eating which have been a constant all my life.

I found this here

Everybody can see how much I'm craving Chocolate now...but I must wait till Easter.
Just some weeks more.

My shelves



Some days ago I was delighting myself in a blog I recently found called  Fox Hollow Cottage.
She was talking about her apothecary cabinet and I was seeing those well cleaned shelves with nice things.
In the end of the post there were links to other girl's shelves.



I thought I could too do a post on my shelves but then I saw in my mind what I had in them: books ! Books, books and more books all over the place.

Ok, then, I thought, I will make a post on my shelves, never mind if most of them have only books and they are not tidy and even if...(embarrasment here) there are always things that don't belong there  !



See for yourselves.

A corner of my home

Today I leave you with a view of one corner of my home with the roses my husband gave me and the books - mostly his books.
