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:

Damien Mulley
Alexia Golez
Tommy Collison
Alan Costello
Steven Troughton-Smith
Olivia Kiely

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!
