And when you open the door, it's a shark! Remember those SNL skits with Chevy Chase as the Land Shark? They aired in the mid-1970's after "Jaws" made the ocean a scary place to stick a toe in.
Well this post is not about that. Nope. This deals strictly with actual candy, lovely bits of dark chocolate, this time with raspberry swirls, wrapped in shiny foil with a hidden message. I think of them as fortune chocolates! I had stayed away from them for some time, but I'm again indulging in their rich delight... yum!
So, here are the fortunes received the past few weeks.
Smiling is free. (It also releases endorphins and elevates your mood. try it right now. I'll wait.)
Happiness looks great on you. (See above.)
You have a great laugh! (Definitely a favorite and I've had this fortune several times.)
Be a little naughty with your nice. (But don't let Santa know!)
Be playful with your love. (A sense of humor is so very important and doesn't get the airplay of external appearances.)
Live well, laugh often, and love much. ("L" words are liberating!)
You are exactly where you are supposed to be. (Even if you're lost... which I am so very often.)
Tempt your sense of exploration. (See above.)
You're delicious. (Even though I'm not covered in chocolate?)
Take this moment. Enjoy it. (Meaning, of course, savor that chocolate and let it melt eversoslowly in your mouth. Yum...)
Relaxation by chocolate. (See above.)

ReplyDelete"Since Nest #2 hatched, we will be excavating this nest on Friday, July 20, at about 8pm. The easiest way to access this nest is by parking in the N. Beach parking lot, on the far right (South) end. This nest is quite a walk from any beach access, so if you want to come, be prepared to walk a good ways. Once you walk over the crosswalk onto the beach, head to your right (south) until you see us there. You may bring your cameras, but there is NO flash allowed! If you have flashlights, they are required to have red fliters on them, or they must be red lights."

I'll be taking an umbrella, just in case. Now, where is my red-filtered light??
