I'm A Chocoholic

Fair warning: I'm giving up chocolate for Lent. As my family and close friends know, chocolate is my favorite food group, so this will be a pretty impressive feat. When I get to the final days, I'm probably going to be suffering from serious withdrawals, so steer clear and don't even think about sipping on a delicious hot chocolate in front of me - the smell alone will do me in.

N is giving up his favorite food group too - chips! I'm very proud of him.

To celebrate our accomplishments, we will be treating eachother to some special Easter gifts. N's gift will look something like this:

My gift will be the hot chocolate souffle from La Campania in Waltham, one of my favorite restaurants of all time. I've had the dessert once, but I dream about it often. It is baked to order and requires 35 minutes of cook time. It is served with vanilla bean gelato and hot chocolate ganache. It will be WELL worth the sacrifice!

What are you giving up for Lent?
