I wade through mounds of spam there also, to get to the good stuff, so I'm always charmed when I discover comments like yours instead of junk. <br /><br />Your chocolate sounds yummy! We must have our chocolate. Thanks for adding your shiny comment to my blog!Dorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05953973448175171825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164782854241221207.post-374101980149607822010-07-03T23:35:35.382-07:002010-07-03T23:35:35.382-07:00Dorraine,

Anyway, I wanted to say that I love that painting, and chocolate of all kinds. <br /><br />When I'm in Japan, I eat the most basic old fashioned chocolate bar called Meiji Milk or Dark chocolate. Most people choose fancier chocolate, but for me, it has to be those chocolates. The taste and the memory come back and lift up my spirit. <br /><br />I enjoy my visit to your blog. Your sense of colors is always enticing to my eyes and taste buds.keiko amanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10009453048859594709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164782854241221207.post-12920745797110674402010-07-02T12:00:07.412-07:002010-07-02T12:00:07.412-07:00I hope so too, Jai!I hope so too, Jai!Dorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05953973448175171825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164782854241221207.post-52034040170270950392010-06-30T06:14:49.508-07:002010-06-30T06:14:49.508-07:00I love trains!

They have big windows through which one can see the outdoor scenery; there's plenty of space to stretch the legs; there's an opportunity to meet all kinds of people and interract.<br /><br />I even like train stations except of two instances. Once, I got off by mistake at the wrong station; it was deserted and closed for the night. The second time, I was waiting for a night train in a station in Spain, and I saw a cop fiercely beating a teenager. Someone told me the teenager was probably homeless as he kept coming back to sleep on a bench and the train station authorities do not permit this kind of behavior. Still, the beating was a terrible sight.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164782854241221207.post-9615698471740313832010-06-25T07:46:01.358-07:002010-06-25T07:46:01.358-07:00Oh my gracious!

In the fall, they chugged to a pumpkin patch for the kids. During the holidays, there was dancing and a small band in one of the cars. Ohh, it will be missed.<br /><br />But now, that chocolate train sounds addicting.Ronda Laveenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902846545309643023noreply@blogger.com
