Hehe , liked what u did there , reminds me of dark chocolate , the bitter with the sweetness all in one combo ... Life is like that , there are some times which might be tough but there comes a time when you sit back laugh back at it ...

Hi Kathy, Yeah, that's life, and you have a great attitude about it! :) ... Most people like milk chocolate, but Dark is my favorite :)

[Kathy Mc Cathy]

Hey , thanks well I haven't explored much off it yet , let's see what the future has for the both of us , hopefully good .. Yepp a nice dairy milk or lindor suffices my appetite ... But a dark chocolate is just gr8...

I don't like bittersweet. In fact, I don't like bitter at all. Perhaps that's why I don't eat grapefruit for breakfast. I'd rather smile eating my toast and marmalade than pull a face indulging in sharpness. No grapefruit on my shopping list EVER.

haha I'm not a Grapefruiter either, Toast & Peanut Butter is my favorite everyday breakfast. Once in a blue moon I'll treat myself to ham'n eggs'n hashbrowns and gobs of ketchup, and hot black coffee :)

Clever comparison! Weird thing about grapefruit & life (not to mention coffee) --> bitterness is the reason we love it! *smile* Here's hoping you have a fun Halloween weekend! (((HUGS)))
