Sunday and Chocolates

My husband has been at a conference in Paris this week. He came back bearing gifts and one particularly welcome treat was this box of mini-chocolate bars. I think they are almost (almost, but not quite) too pretty to break into and eat. I'm sure I will manage it though.
Hope everyone is having a good Sunday. We went for a run this morning but my husband's leg injury played up again and I encountered him limping along. I think he finds it frustrating because he really does want to run, but every time he returns to it after a rest, the same thing happens.
He'll probably cheer up later as we're going to our local Indian buffet tonight. That's assuming we can get a table. It's very popular on a Sunday night.
What have you all been up to today?

@diannen what?! i would be mad and feel betrayed, doesn't matter if it's chocolate, money, a vase or a teddy bear.

Oh, chocolates! You're one lucky lady!
This day, I finished the laundry, cooked some lunch for us, and then studied some lessons for next week's class. I have to stop though because my head refuses to absorb any material anymore and so I decided to hang out here in the living room while mylotting and watching some youtube videos. Gotta make sure I stay hydrated so I have my water with me as well. Then I plan to jump in to the elliptical and get my hour of cardio since I did not do any yesterday. Then possibly convince the boyfriend to go to the movies with me or take a walk. We cannot do anything tonight that will take a while since we have an early start tomorrow.

Nothing better than chocolate from Paris. Makes me nostalgic for my trips there.

I do love a good chocolate. Are these from different areas?
There is a brace people can use on their knees. I think it is called Tommy Copper.

I agree that some chocolates can look almost too good to eat but I always manage to persuade myself otherwise too.

The wrappers are beautiful. The chocolate must be so good. Enjoy the chocolate and your meal at the Indian buffet. I was just out picking up a few things and now we are preparing a nice Sunday dinner.

Oo! Indian buffet you say? I wish I could come with. I love curry. Those chocolates are so pretty! Chocolate , esp. pretty chocolate is a nice gift. My (now ex) Fiance brought me a chocolate with a painting by Gustav Klimt on it from Vienna once.
