Make it Chocolate Covered! - PH

PhotoHunt theme : Covered

a selection of covered donuts

It's amazing the number of things you can find covered in chocolate. Marketers think that any thing would sell if you just cover it in chocolate. I couldn't agree more, so far I have yet to find one thing that doesn't taste good with a little chocolate over it. :)

In Bangkok, I have tried ants, grasshoppers, beetles and worms covered in chocolate!

my love - chocolate covered donuts

I hope I can find something else that tastes great covered up in chocolate. yum yum......

You would not want to see the next object covered in chocolate. :D

Initially I wanted to post a photo of my left foot covered in blood .... I have decided to spare you the gore. :D
my swollen ankle wrapped in an ice pack

Thanks to the readers and bloggers who regularly asked after the progress of my recovery. My left ankle has healed almost 50%. I'm so reluctant to give up my wheelchair because I look so ugly with a walking stick! Yucks!

  4. I'm Sara Cat's brother Calle Cat. I have started a page about being a red, orange or ginger cat called "The Red Cat Society". This is the first time I am dropping EC-cards.

    Great solution to the PhotoHunt challenge "covered". But I don't think I'll have time to participate. We are several cats that post items about our red cat lives,

    P.S. Glad to hear your ankle is healing! Meow!

  7. What a twist to your post. I am to praise the creative genius in you.

    Sounds like while you are missing the wheelchair, you have the courage to move on to the walking sticks even if walking sticks may not seem to look good with you at first. May you recover fully in time to come.

  9. Before the removal of the tumor, I had become sensitive, okay allergic to chocolate and would break out at the slightest consumption.
    Fortunately, that problem is now gone and I can enjoy the ecstasies of chocolate~

  16. How did the chocolate covered bugs taste? Crunchy? I prefer the chocolate-coated donuts. Your injury looks painful, but it sounds like you're making progress.

  19. I am over those donuts with heavy sugary frosting. Had too much when it was introduced here.

    I prefer old school plain donuts with light sugar dusting on top.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Looks yumm... but I have always preferred the sugar coated ones.

    Nice to know that you're getting better...
