A Visit With A Chocoholic (my second guest writer post)

I'll take them all please, thank you!


Today I have the pleasure of being a guest writer at Rachel's place, or as she is better known,  Diary of A Chocoholic.   She has a fun, fascinating site that covers her travels abroad, education, cooking, journey into marriage (December 2010) and more! 

What's not to like about Rachel?  She is so amusing and talented.  Rachel wants to open up a bakery, own a marketing business, write for magazines and do PR for a non profit group.  She's only 22 years old so I know she can accomplish all of these aspirations!   Rachel grew up in a small town in South Carolina but has studied in Scotland and is presently moving back from South Korea where her fiance' lived to contract-teach for a year!  Check out her post on South Korean snacks and food!


By far, Rachel calls herself a chocoholic.  In her own words, she told me:  "I'm addicted, I just can't stop! It's just one of my favorite flavors - Chocolate just makes the world a little better."  Rachel says that she regularly buys the Dove chocolate squares.  Her other chocolate cravings include Mississippi Mud Cakes, chocolate chip cookies and smores. 


The most interesting thing I find about Rachel, however, is her "Bucket List" - her list of 101 things she hopes to complete by March 15, 2013.  Her unique list is even organized by categories.   She created this list in order to set goals and dreams for herself over the next several years. 


Rachel quickly discovered that I'm a big listmaker as well.  In fact, I checked it out -- I have 25 blog posts dedicated to various lists that I've made over the past year.  So when she asked me to be a guest writer about the successful art of list making, I said SURE, OF COURSE! 





And I promise it's not boring.  My post might even make you laugh.  More importantly though I hope it will help you take action in your daily routine.  So stop by the Chocoholic's place right now to read all about my tips and tricks on how you can make lists work for you!  Tell Rachel that I sent you! 


But before you go..... What do you think of list making?  What do you think of chocolates?  What addictions do you have that you give into regularly?  Leave it in the comments section.


Do you want me to write a guest post on your site?  Would you like to share your thoughts on here as a guest writer?  Let me know!  We can spread the love around - for chocolate, for list-making, for nachos and beer and more!  :-)

I love list making. There's such gratification in crossing things off as "done".

I love chocolate but a close second or tie to chocolate would be caramel.

I'm off to read the list.

Right now I wish my dining table was made of chocolate. That's how badly I'm craving it now. LOL. The Virgo in me makes lists of everything. When I went into labor with my second son, you should have seen the lists that I left for my mom regarding caring for my first boy. It was 3 pages long!! LOL.

I think I'll make you a list of all the things I love about lists. Who doesn't love lists? I could not exist without them.
