Advent adventure: 2nd day. I realize my day begins with a tiny chocolate bite.

I woke up realizing that each morning for the next few weeks will start out with a tiny embossed chocolate square.

There you are Day #2. I see you.

I don't usually start my day like this. But would I save it for later?
 Would I delay opening the tiny portal to see what's hiding below??

Patrick decorates himself as a Christmas tree.

I think not. 

Truthfully, were I in sunnier climes, that chocolate would melt in a flash. You'd better just down it or it'll be a sticky-finger memory. It's really just a taste. Not even a bite.

Today's surprise is Mr. Eugene Krabs. I often make a Christmas Crab brooch. Sometimes earrings too. I am getting excited by these tiny forms left behind when the chocolate comes out.

2 down. 30 to go.

My Bob l'Eponge Advent Calendar Adventure!! Day One.

On a whim I purchased a SpongeBob Squarepants / Bob L'Eponge Advent calendar for $2 from the local dollar store. I've never had an advent calendar. Being one to try new things I am fully engaging with this calendar.

I'll post each day's special surprise.

Today we have Spongebob as a Christmas tree on the back of the piece I punched out to get at the small cheap chocolate square which has a raised Squidward design diagonally across its surface. It struck me that I now have a (flimsy) mold of a Squidward as well. I may get more out of this than chocolate and joyful surprises!
