Who doesn't love CHOCOLATE!?!?

Well, I guess I can answer the question in the title with MY HUSBAND. Yes... my husband doesn't like chocolate. Isn't that a crime!? He's such a party pooper when it comes to sharing chocolatey desserts at restaurants. It always has to be cheesecake or apple crisp or some other non-chocolate dessert... no quadruple fudge cake covered with fudgy frosting for me. *sad face* Although I can honestly say that even though Jon doesn't like chocolate, I am in no way chocolate deprived! *wink* This will be my doorprize for the SoCal StampMania event tomorrow. Each Starbuck's Frap bottle is filled with a different chocolate candy (Twix, Rolos, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and Hershey Kisses w/Almonds). I used the Au Chocolat paper to cover the holder. I also wrapped different papers around the bottles, and put a coordinating circle on top of each bottle. I actually found some cream and brown Primas in my stash too! You can see the front of the holder better in the other picture. I used the 'C' from Big Deal Alphabet and the rest of the word was stamped using my Karen Foster snap stamps. I faux stitched around the tag and I also stamped it with portions from the Doodle This set. The polka dot ribbon is from StarLitStudio.

I was also tagged by Elizabeth to share seven things about myself. I really don't think I'm very interesting, but here goes!

1. Like Sharon Harnist, I can also tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue! Sharon is coming to SoCal this weekend and we're gonna have stem tying contests. But first we'll have to order a few choice beverages that come with cherries in them! *wink*

2. I tore my left ACL twice. It's the main ligament in your knee that basically keeps the lower part of your leg from flopping all over the place. Two surgeries later and a long scar down the middle of my leg... I'm good as new!

3. I went to college on volleyball and tennis scholarships. And now you can understand what the knee injuries were as a result of.

4. I am tall. Most people who know me online are surprised when they meet me in person. I am 6'1". This trait comes from my dad who is 6'7".

5. I have a phobia of spiders. Whether they are as big as my hand or as small as my pinky, they gross me out! One time last summer, nobody was home with me and there was a BIG spider climbing on the wall. I had to call my mom to walk me through getting rid of it. I considered going to the neighbors and asking them to come kill it, but I didn't want them to think I was completely nuts! I screamed bloody murder, smashed it with a shoe, and then ran outside to breathe some fresh air. I then left a note for hubby to clean it up from the wall. In my mind I know this fear is absolutely stupid, but I just can't seem to get rid of the creepy crawlies I have whenever I see a spider.

6. I work full-time as an accountant for a Foundation in Pasadena.

7. I LOVE CATS! I always grew up with cats and we had two cats that we had to give up for adoption before we came to California. I'm really looking forward to being able to have cats again! I've even turned Jon into a cat lover! LOL!

Hope you all have a great weekend! I'm leaving work early today... woohoooo for short days!
