Chocolate Party

I have one roommate who is sensitive to chocolate...in a bad way. We can't even have it in the kitchen, the poor thing! She went out of town for Mother's Day and we knew it was our chance to overindulge in chocolate. Now, this isn't really a craft but I knew I had to write about it this week.We decided to throw a chocolate party. At church we invited everyone. We invited the apartments on our floor. We texted a bunch of friends. We wanted everyone to come. So then came the making of all the chocolatey goodness. We told people to bring goodies if they wanted to as well. We didn't really know how many people would come since we invited everyone and their mother it seemed so we just guess at how much we needed to make. We made a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting of course. Some Brazilian chocolatey caramel things. Some more Brazilian cookie things (can you tell I have a Brazilian roommate and that I don't know what they were called?) A chocolate Oreo pie topped with whipped cream and raspberries. We cut strawberries in half, dipped them in milk chocolate and then drizzled white chocolate. Those went the fastest. And we made no bake cookies. Some people brought brownies and another chocolate cake and some pudding delicious thing. It was a huge success! Around 50-60 people visited our small apartment. Good thing we pushed our furniture back to make it more roomy! We had an entire chocolate cake left over so we cut it up and gave some to our neighbors who didn't make it. Then we had to scrub the chocolate off our floor and counters before our roommate got home Monday night...but we waited until Monday afternoon to do all that!
