Why I think you may be on to something, Sea! Now you are hereby dubbed (or dibbed), the "Nibinator" By the way, my very favorite word in the world is, "weiner," but "nibs" is quickly gaining in popularity! Don't ask me why I like to say weiner, I just do. Say it, go ahead, I dare ya! You'll smile after you say it, guaranteed!

it's a fact. (since it was mentioned above...i have no issue w/ weiner....but for some odd reason i have 2 words i hate. weiner, no problem. weinies (sp?). a problem. lol. i remember as a 6-year old i hated the term weinies (sp?). i liked the words, hot dogs instead. but the word i hated most in life when i was young? the c word that meant poop. then when i got older the second horrible word for me is the second c word. odd, but those words are the nastiest ever....but for some odd reason i don't have a problem w/the f word...when used w/close friends. hmmm, sorry, off topic.

OMG thanks Hukd! I just spit all over my monitor! Nibs and that "c" word are two words that should never be said in the same sentence! Abby, *cocoa* nibs are what's left after you remove the husks from the cocoa beans and grind 'em up a bit. If you take the cocoa nibs and run 'em through a food mill (or food juicer), you get cocoa liquor. (That's a real broad example of how to extract liquor from nibs.) And Hukd... don't even THINK of going there!

Monday, Monday, can't trust that day! But here it is again anyway and us FoCers have got to tough it out! Yesterday's question seems to have hit a high note with many of you. As a reminder, here it is again: Is "chocolate liquor" the primary ingredient found in all chocolate except white chocolate? Well, I don't know about you, but all this TALK about chocolate has given me a healthy CRAVING for chocolate! ACK! Now, how we got from chocolate to nibs I understand, but from nibs to weiners? That's a different story! However, when browsing some pictures of luscious chocolates, I came across this one and now I think I understand:
In any case, here's how y'all voted: Hmmm, pretty even! So, let's leave it to the Calendar Candy-hearts to bust that tie! It's FACT! "Chocolate liquor is the name given to the thick, viscous liquid made from ground 'nibs' -- the name for roasted, shelled, and cracked cocoa beans that have been carefully dried and fermented. Because of the deep brown color of chocolate liquor, it is never used to make white chocolate. White chocolate is essentially cocoa butter, sugar, and milk, with no cocoa bean solids." And, because it's Valentine's Day (almost), here's one last chocolate pic for you. Have a sweet day!
Okay, now on to the next question, for Tuesday, February 14, 2006:
The oldest existing Valentine message in English was written in A.D. 496 by Aethelwulf, second King of Britain, to his wife, Osburga. FACT or CRAP? You decide!

I'm sure it's a FACT. This might be the orginal poem he wrote to her : I’ll sing my sweet love song, and give thee some candy If only dear Osburga, thou wilst turn quite randy I’m the second King of Britain, sadly not the first But I suppose thou could have done so very much worse So eat your treats and taketh thee to thine bed Or I’ll do something Kingish, like “off with your head!” Of course I’m just teasing Thou art really quite pleasing And more sexy alive rather than dead

This better be crap because I am tired of being wrong. If the valentine was that old it wouldn't still be existing. Do your hear me! It wouldn't still be existing. I better be right!
