If you want to know a little bit more about me as a Photographer:
I am not the world’s greatest sweet tooth, and I would be more drawn to a cheese platter than a selection of sweet petit fours. In saying that I am not averse to a small amount of chocolate on occasion. However the kind of chocolate that I like is very good quality dark, bitter chocolate with a high concentration of cacao, like these Chocolate Amatller, seventy percent cacao, Sal de Mar (with sea salt) chocolate leaves. I bought these from a gourmet chocolatier on a recent country weekend away, however I bought it more for the beautifully stylised Art Deco design tin than what was in it, and I still haven’t had a desire to eat so much as one leaf yet.
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" on the 18th of March is "chocomania", so it’s all about chocolate. Chocolate Amatller, seventy percent cacao, Sal de Mar (with sea salt) chocolate leaves were a late choice for me after I tried several other examples of chocolate, but was not happy with the results. The backdrop of this photo is high quality paper printed with one of English Arts and Crafts artist, William Morris’ most popular patterns, “Strawberry Thief”, created in 1883. This image encapsulates my relationship with chocolate: a small amount on occasion, beautifully presented. I hope you like my choice of image for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile.
Chocolate Amatller was founded in 1797 in El Born, in the heart of Barcelona, by Gabriel Amatller and is today one of the oldest active chocolate brands in Europe. For almost two hundred and twenty five years, Chocolate Amatller has preserved its heritage through the generations and has reflected its modernist origins in its wide range of products.

(Shout out to Hanna's, a local family of chocolatiers who have been making homemade sweetness since 1929.)
Incredible cat made entirely from chocolate by Dominique Persoone, the most famous chocolatier (shock-o-latier) in Belgium.
Displayed in the window of The Chocolate Line, Simon Stevinplein, Bruges, Belgium, in celebration of the shop being established for 30 years.
The chocolate cat is around one metre high - that's a lot of chocolate!
All the chocolate used is from sustainable sources.
Chocolatier (Chocolate maker)
"A la fois technicien et artisan, s'il est un métier gourmand, c'est bien celui du chocolatier. Celui-ci mélange les saveurs, sculpte les tablettes, dose les noisettes et les pralines pour imaginer des recettes qui régaleront sa clientèle."
"Both a technician and a craftsman, if there's one gourmet profession, it's that of the chocolatier. They mix flavours, sculpt bars, measure out hazelnuts and pralines to create recipes that will delight their customers. "

A Pinocchio statue outside a chocolatier, in the old town of the Tuscan city of Lucca, Italy.
The creator of Pinocchio, Carlo Collodi was from Tuscany, but I wasn't able to find any specific relationship with Lucca. Maybe just one for the tourists...

"Candyman"
Lindt lindor, a treat for sure,
other candy so bland a bore,
posh, delicious, what allure,
bonjour, smooth, mine secure.
The end.
Lindt: Master Chocolatiers
since: (1884)
Other Chocolate brands
are also available.
Yes' candyman, well that's ok to say that once, not in front of the mirror though I should image, well let's hope so .... 😈 ....
A delicious Lindt candy wrapped sweet, milk & white chocolate ball, consisting of a thin layer of outer milk chocolate coating, then inside a fantastic white chocolate inner section.
These particular sweets come in four different types, milk, coconut, strawberry & cream, and my one milk & white.
These are very rich chocolates, and personally not really to my taste.
Love & Peace everyone!

My cousin Robin sent me and my sister some awesome chocolates from her favorite chocolatier, Gail Ambrosius in Madison, WI so I couldn't resist doing this shot. I was so thrilled to find that the bellies aren't filled with gold but are filled with awesome, dark chocolate. Thanks so much cousin but if I turned into a golden bellied buddha, it's all on you!
Western Shirt, Cowboy Hat, and a Kitchen
What do you get when you combine a classic western shirt, a cowboy hat, a roughstock cowboy, and a kitchen? Chocolate of course. Chocolate and beer to be precise.
If you have spent anytime in rural America, especially out west, you would know the folks that live in fly-over country are often multi-talented and resourceful. I have been in ice cream shops where you could get a cone, buy a postcard, and get a key made in one stop. When I lived in Montana my neighborhood hair salon sold custom made gun racks right next to the shampoo and hair products. These people are entrepreneurs and make best and better with what resources and skills they have.
Thank you all my Flickr friends,
may 2015 be a happy and great year for you! <3
みなさま、ご訪問ありがとうございました！
また来年もよろしくお願いします。
よいお年をお迎え下さい～ヾ(=ﾟωﾟ)ゞ

Il y a vingt-cinq ans, Hans Imhoff, chocolatier de renom et principal actionnaire de Stollwerck, a réalisé un rêve de longue date en ouvrant son musée du chocolat sur la presqu'île de Rheinauhafen à Cologne, dans l'ancien siège des douanes du port L'idée lui est venue pour la première fois en déménageant l'usine Stollwerck, 18 ans plus tôt, lorsqu'il avait découvert un trésor de machines et d'autres matériaux dignes d'être exposés dans un musée. En 1991, Hans Imhoff a acheté aux autorités locales toute la pointe nord de la péninsule, y compris le bâtiment des douanes du port, construit à l'origine en 1896, la tour Malakoff construite en 1854 et le pont tournant en acier, le plus ancien pont de Cologne, sur la le Rhin. Les plans d'agrandissement et de rénovation du bâtiment ont été élaborés par l'architecte Fritz Eller qui souhaitait redonner au bâtiment historique sa gloire d'avant-guerre, car depuis la guerre, seules des mesures d'urgence avaient été prises. Après 13 mois de travaux de construction, le musée du chocolat Imhoff a été officiellement inauguré en 1993.
À la pointe nord du port, l’architecte a construit un pavillon de verre en forme de proue de navire pour abriter la ligne de production conçue spécifiquement pour le musée ainsi qu’une fontaine de chocolat doré de trois mètres de haut. Du côté ouest du bâtiment des douanes, face à la ville et au pont tournant, Fritz Eller a inséré un cube de verre entre les deux tours du bâtiment. Celui-ci abrite un tropicarium créé en collaboration avec l'Université de Bonn, qui comprend naturellement des cacaoyers. La conception est complétée du côté sud par un bâtiment administratif semi-circulaire.
Twenty-five years ago, Hans Imhoff, renowned chocolatier and largest shareholder of Stollwerck, fulfilled a long-held dream by opening his chocolate museum on the Rheinauhafen peninsula in Cologne, in the former customs headquarters from the port The idea first came to him while moving the Stollwerck factory 18 years earlier, when he discovered a treasure trove of machinery and other materials worthy of display in a museum. In 1991, Hans Imhoff purchased from the local authorities the entire northern tip of the peninsula, including the port customs building, originally built in 1896, the Malakoff Tower built in 1854 and the steel swing bridge, the most old Cologne bridge, over the Rhine. Plans for the expansion and renovation of the building were drawn up by architect Fritz Eller who wanted to restore the historic building to its pre-war glory, because since the war only emergency measures had been taken. After 13 months of construction work, the Imhoff Chocolate Museum was officially opened in 1993.
At the northern tip of the port, the architect built a glass pavilion in the shape of a ship's bow to house the production line designed specifically for the museum as well as a three-meter-high golden chocolate fountain. On the west side of the customs building, facing the city and the swing bridge, Fritz Eller inserted a glass cube between the two towers of the building. This houses a tropicarium created in collaboration with the University of Bonn, which naturally includes cocoa trees. The design is complemented on the south side by a semi-circular administrative building.
This work was done while mother was sleeping in a Hospital bed. And yes, she told me not to play with food.
