Choctoberfest

Choctoberfest provided its usual opportunity to get a little sick on chocolate, relax before the holidays and talk to some girlfriends without our kids interrupting every five words. We really don't ask for much, do we?

I told these girls I was going to take a picture and they all showed me their backsides. Hey, whatever makes you feel good.

I always have a prize for the person dressed the most chocolatey. Angie planned all year on wearing this chocolate shirt so she could win. However, her white chocolate peppermint bon bons won the best tasting dessert prize, so in an ironic twist, I had to give the Dressed the Most Chocolatey award to Ashley instead.

You decorating types might prefer seeing what my blogging friend the Hill Country Homebody has to say about the party. She certainly took better pictures, she explains how to make chocolate covered bacon, and if you look around you might get inspired to do some projects around your house.
