Food-Whoring
For something that starts out vegan, it sure as hell is hard to find vegan chocolates. I'd swear there was some kind of omniverous conspiracy, except that it's hard for something to be a conspiracy when it's overt.
But whatever; among other things, I'm evil and can cook, as one might say. I'm also nice and can share, because the joy is first in the making, and then in the giving. Or something sappy like that.
I wonder, though: does posting food pictures all the time make me into some kind of food-whore? "Look at me! Look at me! I make wickedly cute/ delicious-looking food, which makes up for my not-so-wickedly cute self!" I mean, it's not like I've got my Amazon wishlist up here so you can buy me pretty trinkets and love. (Though, if you wanted, you're certainly welcome to spend money on me here or here.) And I'm willing to share, at least. Camwhores don't do tha-- anh, nevermind; I don't think I want to go there.
I've been working on another, non-picture-of-food post, but I keep feeling guilty for blogging instead of writing my school papers. Ironically, the post is on how I feel guilty for blogging and not, you know, writing my school papers. Sometimes life is obvious and painful like that.
I blame the endorphins. The lovely, terrifying endorphins.

Those look yummy... what sorts of chocolates are they, exactly (besides vegan of course)?

Cherry caramel hazelnut truffles.
And they are yummy. =)

You can MAKE THOSE?? I don't know whether to hate you or be insanely jealous or what. Dang.
From whence cometh these terrifying endorphins?

Yes. Liene opts for the first two options.
Chocolate is full of chemicals. Insidious ones. That flood my brain with endorphins and crazy thoughts. Well, the crazy thoughts were probably already there. But the endorphins are definitely the work of the chocolate. Or something.

Your site just makes me hungry. Virtual food cravings are just not fun.

I would just like to reiterate how DELICIOUS those chocolates were... I have some sitting on my desk right now, taunting me, but alas it is too early for chocolate. At least today.

Yeah, my site should come with a warning sign.
Too early for chocolate? Wow. You really *are* weird. :p

I can normally eat chocolate at any time of day, but when I don't sleep much, my stomach can't handle much food. Your truffles would have killed it, and we can't have THAT now, can we?
