guys, i had a dream about buying chocolate covered almonds last night. in my dream, the dark chocolate ones were too expensive (because they only had those organic), i so i bought the milk chocolate ones. very specific! :

this was right after a dream where i helped my (fixed) dog deliver two little girl puppies. also a very graphic one with lots of, um, closeups of her anatomy. the pups were so cute and soft and little and went straight to suckling, and my dog was the best mama ever and i woke up all weepy about it.

this morning i told andy, "last night i had a dream neeley was pregnant and gave birth. i think my sub-conscious is confused."

Yes, and if it's dark chocolate, you'll be getting lots of good antioxidants too! You and your babies should definitely have as many chocloate covered almonds as you want! No reason to feel guilty--it's practically health food!

ETA: Okay, I just read the whole thread and now I see that someone already pointed out the benefits of dark chocolate!

Definitely! And chocolate has antioxidants, so thats even better, and if you get the kind made with organic, free-trade ingredients, you're doing the planet a favor too. So, therefore, its imperative that you eat those chocolate almonds! Right away!
