At last week's party, we took a little trip down the aisle to fit with the whole "June Bride" theme.
This week, we're surrounding ourselves with chocolate in honor of National Chocolate Day.
And I was thinking, what better way to do chocolate than spending time with one of my absolute favorite bloggers (& friends), who just so happens to be a little bit chocolate-obsessed herself?
Yes, I'm definitely taking this theme in a bit of a different direction, but since her links at this party are always wildly popular, I know you'll all appreciate this list of top Guilty Chocoholic Mama posts:

| Chocolate-covered popcorn...& 5 other habits of a (mostly) happy family |
Between the "we welcome weird" and the yummy chocolate-covered popcorn recipe, this post's fabulousness demonstrates why Elizabeth and I became such fast friends out there on the interwebs!
So, click on over and get your fix of chocolate in a calorie-free way today. Warning: you might find that hours of your day disappear like magic, due to getting sucked into reading a bazillion of her other amazing posts!
And pop up a batch of that chocolate-covered popcorn to munch while you're at it.
Popcorn's healthy, right?
Now time for the new stuff!
