Anni Golding decided to transition from a career in high technology to start Gateau et Ganache. Her "La Passion" passion fruit-flavored chocolate seemed like a great choice for my 1,000th chocolate today. Thank you to Esther Shih, and everyone who helped celebrate my 1,000th day of chocolate at Far East Living (boutique and gallery) in Palo Alto, CA. Chocolate is more fun when it's shared. And we certainly enjoyed this passion fruit-flavored bon bon today. Special thanks to local businesses who donated chocolates, time and services for this event that benefited two local non-profits.

I was asked today if I will stop eating chocolate now that I've hit the 1,000 mark. Nope. My next goal is to eat my weight in chocolate -- a milestone I will likely reach before mid-2012. So, stay tuned to read about more chocolates for at least another few years. I'll be looking to see if there really are 2,000 different chocolates out there around the world.
