April's Wedding- South Bend Chocolate Company!

We got back on the road and headed towards South Bend. Katie travels there a lot for work and was very excited to introduce me to the South Bend Chocolate Company. It has become my new favorite place on earth.

South Bend has a really cute downtown. I wished we had more time to walk around and see everything; it was a beautiful night and just a really cool little place!!

We made our way to the store stopping to get pictures with two hot men I met.

I’m pretty sure one, if not both is going to propose soon.

We made our way inside with me snapping pictures, I am such a tourist. Someone yelled out behind the counter, HEY! NO PICTURES ALLOWED!!! Scared the crap out of me. It’s not like I was taking a picture of their super secret chocolate recipe, I was taking a picture of the flowers hanging from the ceiling. Then he started laughing hysterically, apparently at the shocked look on my face. Funny dude, reaalllll funny!!!

Look at the size of that cake!!! I was drooling but also wondering how on earth someone would eat that???!!

There were sooo many goodies there it was a bit overwhelming. Cakes and chocolate, and fudge, and chocolate and chocolate and chocolate! I think I would have moved in there if they had let me!!

Katie was bound and determined to treat me to a life altering Hot Chocolate. And boy howdy was she right! That was the BEST hot chocolate that has ever passed my lips! It literally tasted like drinking a hot Hershey bar. In a word, HEAVEN. Katie was SUPER excited about hers, as was I, (even after it burnt my toungue)

I ended up with a turtle the size of the palm of my hand. It took three days to eat all of it!!

After the glorious-ness of South Bend Chocolate Company we got back on the road and headed towards Michigan and our hotel.

Coming up- I almost "assualt" someone at the hotel.... Darn that Leroy!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo! My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable. My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size! Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!! That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

It's me, Charity
