My girlfriend Dianne and I discovered this fabulous store called Viva Chocolato! in the Domain here in Austin the other day. nbsp;Well we have been back more times than we care to admit in the last 7 days! nbsp; nbsp;Anyway who is counting? nbsp;We have sampled their award winning Blue Cheese Truffles, Tito's Vodka truffles, ChocoCaviar truffles and 99% truffles along with their Diva Salad with Chocolate Balsamicnbsp;Vinaigrette! nbsp; It was there that Dianne bought me a chocolate cookbook aka primer. nbsp; When we got home with the book in tow we found out that the proper way to eat chocolate is not to chew it, but to let it melt in your mouth. nbsp;Letting it touch all thenbsp;taste-buds. nbsp;If you are a winenbsp;aficionadonbsp;you will understand that is also how you should drink your wine. As the good students that we are nbsp;#60;grin#62; we tried it and it is true. nbsp;You really get ALL the amazing flavors that a simple truffle offers. nbsp;And a truffle can last for several bites and becomes a fabulously filling and satisfiying dessert. nbsp;In this case, less IS more.nbsp; Now the other tidbit of information that Cynthia, the manager told us is that if you eat 1 ounce of chocolate (70% or more) each morning an hour before you eat breakfast you will lose weight. nbsp;She has gone from a size 14 to a size 10 since November and that is the only thing she has done different. nbsp;Now that is a food plan we can be excited about!nbsp; Okay... back to dinner last night. nbsp;Wayne, Dianne's boyfriend arrived and we decided that we would stay in and cook. nbsp;Little did we know that we would be entertained by the worst hail storm in the Austin area in years. nbsp;I grabbed my Flip video camera and captured the hail up to golf ball size at my house! nbsp; Anyway, after dinner we were teaching ... okay sharing our truffle eating knowledge with Wayne. nbsp;Yes I bought our favorite 2 truffles for each of us for dessert and a box to take with me to share with Vic. nbsp;How easy is that. nbsp;Well Wayne was sharing how he learned how to eat M#38;M's from Dianne. nbsp; Dianne eats M#38;M's one at a time because when she was younger she didn't get them very often and she wanted them to last longer. nbsp;Well as Wayne was sharing I decided that I had to Flip video his explanation for Vic since he wasn't with us. nbsp;So here is the video that Vic saw last night. Let me know how YOU like savoring your truffles this way... Enjoy!
