And my 30th Birthday.

Happy Birthday! [Big Grin]

But where did you hear that it's International Chocolate Day? A quick google search seems to tell me that International Chocolate Day is September 13th, and in the US, National Chocolate Day is July 7th. It also seems that there is not really official standardization on these things.

happy birthday! I had some chocolate just now, so I'll consider it being in your honour [Smile]

I made it up.
Because there should be an international holiday in the middle of August and on my bday.

But now that there actually is one...

today should be mega, super redundantly chocolate international chocolate day.

The middle of august is just about the worst time for a chocolate holiday.

Unless you're in the Southern Hemisphere, I suppose.

I know, but I really, really like chocolate

even when it's melted.

Is it possible to make it chocolate milk?

If you eat chocolate it does pass through into the milk.

Sadly, some babies are irritated by that...
