I am wife to a magnificent man and mother to five wonderful children. Three of my children were born in the Northwest and two were born thousands of miles away in Liberia, West Africa. Birthplace is no matter, all of my children were born in my heart. This is our journey.

A love affair with chocolate.

I love it. Oh man, I do. I'm not picky about it either. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, semi-sweet, Easter bunnies, etc. Even those sad little gold coin chocolates will do in a pinch.

What is it about this sweet or not so sweet little substance that has me hunting through the pantry like a crazed woman?

My kids understand my obsession. Well, maybe they don't so much as understand it as much as they just know if they provide for it, all will be calm. When they receive little goody bags they sift through it and most of them come to me with the pieces of chocolate they think I will like.

I knew I liked these kids for a reason.

Now where are those goody bags....
