oooo my gosh i love mexican hot chocolate! it may sound odd to say but years ago El Pollo Loco had some and honestly it was some of the best i've ever had. every morning i have some brewed cacao and almost always add some cayenne to it. the chili powder is a new one, have you tried that recipe Don?

as for the sunrise, things like that i believe the beauty is in the combination. because the combination is what generates the beauty. the play of the light off the mountain, the degree of moisture in the air affecting the hue, the mists generating rays of light etc. its all things together that make the beauty. strip it away, and yes a blank sky would probably still be beautiful but limited. when it comes to things like chocolate, in a sense its the same but also not. the taste is beauty, but that taste it determined by the application to make it. the type of cacao bean, its treatment, the amount of sugar or milk etc. unless its white chocolate and then its just bad either way. flavor wise, for me, even if i'd NEVER tasted chocolate before, didnt know what dark, milk or white was, and just tasted them i still wouldn't like white chocolate. and thats aside from it not even being chocolate (dont start with your dissection of solids and whatnot Heavy) what we perceive adds to it certainly, but in my opinion with chocolate only by smaller degrees. like would a beautifully sculpted piece of chocolate make that chocolate taste better? eh i dont think so

the paint on that is good. and thats not usually the case looky a wheel of time one:
-
yes. yes there can. YES THERE MOST CERTAINLY CAN white is the wrong choice. in case you were wondering. as per andy's question however, seeing no color does not denote seeing no tone. and tone is what you're really getting at when you're talking chocolate. like remove the browns and all the colors that make them. you'd still be left with a fundamental tonal difference between white and dark chocolate, even between dark and milk chocolate. the only true means to determine by taste is blindfolded.

lol i'm wondering if its possible to fit any more WoT puns in there. that looks good. and along the same lines, this is a recipe i've been meaning to try for a while. some italian hot chocolate

we cant do chocolate week without the delivery service! for those unfamiliar, this is how it works. have a note or appreciation you want to send someone here? simple, PM me with the name of your target, a message, what kind of chocolate you want to give them and whether or not you want your name attached. then i send them all out here in batches! (and if you dont know what kind of chocolate to send i can handle that for you) it's a great way to spread some love, some fun and of course some chocolate. my pm box is open and waiting! who in your world needs some chocolate?
-
it's that time of year again. and yes i almost forgot. but its still the Brown's Chocolate Week(end)! that's right, the delivery service, sculptures, recipes and of course what Brown event wouldn't have a discussion? from today on through monday it's all about chocolate! who's ready?!
-
depends on how many pics you're talking about
-
and i'm working to poke her on a couple different ends to get you guys all settled
-
awesome just lemme know if Delenn doesnt reply within a few days. i can....apply some pressure
-
you dread telling the truth, i dread you having free reign to do what you want with your channeling unsupervised, @HeavyHalfMoonBlade welcome @Andy MacLeod let me know how we can help you settle in. or if i need to go give our mistress a kick in the rear end
-
that...is SO cool.
-
precisely. honestly you'd think uber and those types would provide a service if your drunk and need a ride ya know? like a subscription or special tab or soemthing
-
which on the one hand good that they have a conscience but on the other come on people! ugh i hate drunk drivers.
-
