Chocolate hugs

It seems every time I return, I get a personal welcome back. Beats the crap out of hug.

Chocolate Shampoo

Written by Tommy Collison

Sit back, relax, and attend the tale of the chocolate shampoo.

Yes. You read that right. Chocolate shampoo.

I finally got up about two hours ago, and hopped in the shower. I reach for the green shampoo but it’s empty. I grab the lynx shampoo and click open the top. I pour some onto my hand and a brown cascade flows onto my hand.

Anyone else would think that’s poo, but you guys know Trust Tommy better then that. No, this is John’s latest (in a string of) attempts to force me to eat chocolate.

I look at it.

No. Impossible. He couldn’t. That’s..

I can wonder all I like, but the truth is that, yeah, John replaced my shampoo with chocolate.

It hasn’t touched my hair of face. It’s merely dripping down my arm.

I close the lid and run the shower again, getting it off. Then I pour half of the chocolate down the drain.

I decide on my method of revenge. I get dressed, grab the bottle and head downstairs. John is innocently eating breakfast.

Nonchalantly, I approach him.

“Funny,” I say, in mock concentration, trying to keep a straight face. “When you buy Lynx shower gel, it’s usual for it to contain gel, right?”

By now, I’m right beside him.

“Yeah” I continue. “I’d be almost certain that’s the case”

John smirks. The smirk is quickly replaced with a look of alarm when I lunge forward and pour the last 1/4 of the bottle’s contents all over him.

Revenge is sweet. Hell yeah!

And you know what? He had the cheek to send around a photo essay!

Welcome to the Chocolate War

What is the chocolate war?

The chocolate war is a war that rages between two forces. The weapons? Chocolate. The armies? One one side: a group of strong willed bloggers. The other? The rest of the world.

*patriotic music winds to a halt*

OK. I’m making it sound wayy more grand then it actually is. TheChocolateWar is a name invented to raise awareness about a challenge undertaken by a few Irish Bloggers for the laugh.

OK, I’m confused. Where’d this all start?

OK, so before we go further, let’s meet the Magnificent Six:

So, Mulley started it, by deciding to give up chocolate for 2009. I decided to join him for the laugh, and the others trickled in.

Ahhh, I get you now. So what’s with the blog?

Allow me to continue. So, when we all decided to start, that should have been it. We would’ve made it though 2009 without cocoa touching our mouths.

But it wasn’t.

My brother, John, took it upon himself to make me eat chocolate. He replaced my toothpaste and my shampoo with chocolate sauce.

Klara, who is Alexia’s sister, jumped on the chocolate bandwagon (not the not-eating it, the trying-to-get-them-to-eat-it-one) by leaving bars of chocolate round the house.

This is a chronicle of the journey. Each of the 6 will be given access to this blog, and we’ll all sign our names on the post’s end.

We may not update regularly and this may flop, but let’s see where this goes!
