Laura's Chocolate

Since Coffee With Pokie is an ever growing thing and it is actually a figment of my imagination, I was so happy when along came Laura to send this lovely, decadent slide show of what else but chocolate. Little does Laura know that most "Parkies" have a thing about chocolate. Chocolate in any form is ok with us and what better way to have chocolate, enjoy. and not gain a pound. Thanks Laura

At least I don't have to look at and drool everytime I write. So you can keep it. I will just come in everyday for a little bit and pretend I can taste it. Can you gain weight from dreaming of chocolate? Lucky, Sass.; September 13, 2008

RED FRIDAYS

Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing RED every Friday. The reason? Americans who support or troops used to be called the "SILENT MAJORITY' we are no longer silent, and are voicing our love of God, Country and home in record breaking numbers. Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our Troops with Dignity and Respect starts this Friday...and continues each and every Friday until the Troops come home, sending a deafing message that....every red blooded American who supports our Men and Women afar, will wear something RED. (thank you Harold)
