National Chocolate Day
Chocolate may be the best thing on Earth
Today is National Chocolate Day. "A food that encourages passion, many people would consider chocolate to be a gift to the world. Whether eaten in the form of a chocolate bar, enjoyed as a chocolate beverage or used to bake a variety of desserts, chocolate has a rich history and a bright future!"
I have written many limericks about things made with chocolate - chocolate eclairs, milk chocolate, s'mores, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cupcakes and Boston Cream Pie. This one is for Chocolate, something we can't seem to live without.
It's made from roasted cacao seeds.
And for millenniums it's been serving our needs.
It’s in so many sweets
And titillating treats…
Chocolate stimulates romantic deeds.

However, Garson O'Toole, the pen name of a man who has tracked down the true origins of hundreds of quotes on his website Quote Investigator, has researched the quote and determined that “the origin of the quote "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt," has been wrongly attributed to both to Abraham Lincoln and Mark Twain. – from an interview on NPR All Things Considered
