If you’ve visited my blog within the last week or so, you know we’ve had some sad times at our house. I’d say it’s time for something fun to balance things out. How about an “I Love Chocolate” Valentine’s Day Giveaway??

You know me. I love chocolate, and I’m not ashamed to admit it. Well, maybe a little ashamed, given the depth of my affection for it :) You can learn more about my chocolate obsessions by reading my pieces in the Life Notes issue going out this week (if you’re not yet receiving it, sign-up is free).

Everyone who leaves a comment on this post by noon (CST) Feb. 13 will be included in a drawing for a $15 gift card to Godiva. If I don’t know you personally or can’t contact you via your own blog, you must include your email address in your comment to be eligible for the giveaway. For fun, tell me how much you love chocolate, and if you don’t love chocolate, spill the beans on the tasty treat you do love.

Something else I’m not ashamed to admit? I love Jesus. He died so that I — and you — might live. I pray that my affection for Him grows deeper with each passing day. Anyone else?

“This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” 1 John 4:10

  1. Hi Cheryl!

    Who doesn’t love chocolate! Pretty much everyone in my office enjoys sweets. We have this bucket on top of a podium that has Hershey Kisses, Reese’s, etc… in it. I was at Target the other day and I bought a bag of mixed chocolates. I brought it to work and added some to the bucket. I mean, I’m just trying to add a little something to theo office, ha!

  2. Hi Cheryl,

    First of all, I’m so sorry about the sadness in your family. May God comfort you and the entire family!

    I love chocolate, however, I’ve given it up (along with all sweets) for now. Otherwise, I’d be the one waving my hand and shouting “Me! Pick me!”
    LOL

    Blessings to you and yours.

  3. I like certain things chocolate – dark chocolate, candy bars, that dream delight (or whatever it’s called. No chocolate frosting or ice cream.

  4. Dark chocolate is The Best! We have a grocery store with bulk bins, and one has randomly sized hunks of dark chocolate. I buy it whenever I shop there, put it in a bowl with an ice pick, and my husband and I stab it off in little pieces. It is even more fun than a handful of chocolate chips!

  5. My favorite way to eat chocolate is when it is combined with peanut butter! Absolutely irresistible in my opinion. If I get started, I can’t stop!! Reese’s PB Cups, here I come….If I win, will I get some PB Cups???? Blessings, Laura Drumb

  6. I love chocolate, too! There is so much you can do to it and with it. Add some orange. Yum! Add a touch of sea salt. YUM! Melt it and dip fruit in it YUM YUM!! The best thing about chocolate, though, is that it is delicious all by itself.

  7. Cheryl- What a deal- FREE chocolate! I think I am the only one out of my family (well at least between my sister) that likes chocolate. Mom always makes sure that she puts truffles in my stocking and another form of sweets for sis!What a mom!

  9. Thanks for the giveaway! I love chocolate! I eat it just about every day, and the only thing I would have a harder time giving up than chocolate is cheese!
