Chocolate Friday ~ Chocolate In Florida

It has been a long time, but Chocolate Friday is BACK!!  'Cause we need the chocolate, right??!  I hope you survived without Chocolate Friday all this time - LOL!

When I was in Florida hanging out with Kim from Homesteader's Heart, we did manage to have a bit of chocolate!

I showed you this cuteness that Kim welcomed me with - I should mention that those are Dove Bliss chocolates and yes I did eat some every day that I was there!  :)

 

One day we went out for a little shopping and I got to check out a neat little chocolate shop called Grimaldi  Candies.  They are only in Florida and are famous for something that I had never tried - Chocolate Covered Potato Chips.  Yes!!!

 

I can tell you that the combination of sweet and salty is quite good!  I did manage to bring home a container to share with my hubs and he agreed that they were yummy!  They even have a website where you can order yourself a 1 lb box of Chips 'N Chocolate if you don't want to be left out of the fun!

I think I can speak for Kim and Kathy and tell you that we think the chocolatey chips deserve a thumbs up - LOL!

The chocolate didn't end there my friends - oh no.  Kim made me her famous chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting!!  OK - she really didn't make it just for me, but I'm pretending it was in my honor.  :)  It was delicious!!  Normally, it looks like this...

Picture totally taken from Kim's cooking blog without her knowledge, but she loves me anyway.  :)

I will tell you (because Kim won't!) that her cake did not turn out perfect!!  The frosting had a bit of an appearance issue (and I am kicking myself for not taking a pic of that), but was still absolutely fabulous!  So now you know that Kim is NOT perfect.  Somebody had to let you in on that secret.  (Hey, I had to have some company in the imperfect club.)  :)  Hee,hee!!  Love you Kim!!!  You can go get her delicious recipe for Chocolate Cake With Peanut Butter Frosting and try it out yourself!

I've shared lots of chocolate with you - now it's your turn!  Write up a chocolatey post or find one in your archives (all rated G of course!) and bring it back here to link up to the thumbnail linky below.  The more chocolate we get here, the better our weekend will be - LOL!  No blog?  Leave your chocolatey thoughts or fave recipes or links in the comments.

Have a chocolatey day my friends!  Now...link, comment, link, comment, link...oh and have a little chocolate.  :)
