I’m a chocoholic. I’ll admit it. If I could eat chocolate with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, I would. I’ve loved chocolate for as long as I can remember.

These days, I actually prefer dark chocolate to milk chocolate. Tastes better to me, and apparently has some health benefits. Strangely, though, I’m not a fan of white chocolate.

I like certain combinations of chocolate…chocolate with banana, chocolate with raspberry. My ultimate favorite combo is chocolate with peanut butter!

Not only do I indulge in chocolate regularly at home, but I also make it a point to try chocolate in every country that I am traveling in. Chocolate that is locally made!

I have found great chocolate in every country. Of course, there is the infamous Belgian and Swiss chocolates that I have sampled.

Gelato in Italy became an addiction! In Vienna, I ate a piece of the Sacher Torte in the café that it originated from.

Chocolate museums make for some fun and interesting facts about chocolate. Not to mention the free samples!

To prove that I have indulged, I usually keep the wrappers from the chocolates so that I can put them in my scrapbooks, which I share with you in this blog.

As I always say at the end of my blogs, and especially at the end of this one,

Sweet Travels!

Yes, but have you ever tried Nutella and peanut butter sandwiches or Nutella gelato?....Nutella is just as good as chocolate!

We must be sisters! Trying mixing a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa in some non-fat greek yogurt with some frozen blueberries. My new obsession!
