Thankful Thursday ~ Blogtoberfest Day 20

Hello dear friends and welcome to another Thankful Thursday.  No matter what your days are like, I believe there is always something to be thankful for, no matter how small.

Earlier this week I had a chocolate craving.  I was craving M&Ms to be exact.  So I went to the store and bought a big bag.  I didn't open it right away after I got home.  It was later in the evening when I settled in to watch a favorite TV show.  By then, I really wanted them and was practically drooling at the thought of the chocolaty goodness.  I opened the bag and poured them in the bowl.  Right away I noticed this white stuff that looked like cake crumbs that covered the candy.  When I picked it up and rubbed it between my fingers, it melted and was greasy like butter.  I don't know what it was and I wasn't going to taste it, so I dumped the bowl of M&Ms in the trash.

Are you wondering yet what I'm thankful for?  I'm thankful that I didn't eat a whole big bag of M&Ms!  I was in just that kind of mood where I would have mindlessly eaten them til they were gone and that's the last thing I needed to do.  By the next day the craving was gone anyway!  See, there's always something to be thankful for, lol !

Beginning Thursday, November 3, Thankful Thursday will become a linky party.  I hope you will join in!

What are you thankful for this week?

Thankful Thursday ~ Nutella

Every Thursday I share something I'm thankful for.  Today I'm thankful for Nutella!  Yes, that chocolatey hazelnut goodness that comes in a jar!  I discovered this heavenly spread when we lived in Germany 20 years ago.  It has been an ongoing love affair ever since!

It's good on a graham cracker or Nilla wafer.  It's better than jelly on a peanut butter sandwich.  It's just divine straight out of the jar on a big 'ol spoon!
 You can check out the website and read all about the history and get lots of other information too.

Meet Me On Monday

I was at a loss as to what to write about today and I remembered this meme form Never Growing Old.  So in case you wanted to know more about me, here you go!!

What one food could you eat every single day?

I enjoy so many different foods I can't imagine eating the same thing every day!  I might could eat soup every day if it was a different kind every couple of days. 

Do you wear glasses or contacts?

I've worn glasses since I was in fifth grade.  I've tried contacts over the years but I had so many problems with them I gave up on them. 

What kind of cell phone do you have?

I have a Droid Eris.  It's a love/hate relationship! 

What did you have for dinner last night?
Marinated boneless chicken breast cooked on the grill, baked sweet potato and roasted broccoli.  I would still want variety but I could eat anything cooked on the grill (charcoal) every day!

What is your favorite candy?

Godiva chocolates!  Especially the one that is a ball of hazelnut chocolate between two clam shells!   This is something that is a once in a while treat.  My go to chocolate is Hershey Kisses!  Now there's something I could eat every day!!  I just don't like dark chocolate!!

Have a marvelous Monday!!!
