"Chawwwk-lut....chawwww-klut....hee! hee!"



That was of course to be read with my amazing impersonation of Sloth from 'The Goonies', otherwise, it makes no sense. ;)

I dedicate the following post to one, 'Father of Bucketheads', J.Y. In reading his blog I have come to appreciate the comradery we have in relation to the following subject matter: chocolate.

On one of the corners of Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin, there is a chocolate store, that I shall not name, because I will probably be breaking somekind of copyright dealee.



I decided that Jill must see these exquisite, very chocolately works of art. Here we have the Brandenburg Gate, symbol of Berlin of the past, Cold War 'divided' Berlin and now a united Berlin.... ohhh, soooo chocolatey......















Jill had some confusion with the sign that was written in English by the 'Titanic in Schokolade'. Jill takes things VERY literally, so 'Do not touch' is apparently different from 'Do not eat'....go figure ;)

STOP JILL! NOOOO.....







The German Parliament building, the Reichstag in chocolate....ewwph! No Jill in sight! ;)













This is the famous West Berlin 'Emperor Wilhelm Memorial Church'. When I was in 5th grade my teacher, Mrs. Witkowski, told us about a church in Germany that they left after WWII as a memorial to the horrors of war, etc. I find the idea 'cool, wonderful', etc.

Jill insists on calling it 'the creepy Church'.....hmm....


Here is a pic of the 'real life' 'creepy' church....










Will someone get her under control?! Truffles are tempting, yes, but, WE ARE IN PUBLIC! ;)











And then, once again, Jill and the frogs...what up?! She found a frog in Arizona when I visited her and she found one again in Berlin.....what's so attractive about frogs anyway? Do they have English accents? ;)







Here I am doing my best 'kid' impression from 'The Kid', telling the froggy-prince-chocolatey-guy that he'd better back off!
Jealousy and anger are not good, unless you're a woman and involved with a guy. Because after a fit of jealous rage the ladyfriend looks at the guy and says 'you REALLY do like me!'
Hmph! ;)






Kyoot! I hope that wasn't a real cherub dipped in chocolate! I saw Vincent Price in the 'real' "Wax Museum"....I know how things 'go down'....

Volcanoes erupting chocolate? Where existeth this land? And how might I exist in that landeth?
