Chocolate: It's what's for breakfast

*GASP*
I know what you're thinking.
"This hooker wants to be a dietitian and she's telling me she eats chocolate for breakfast?"
Whatev.
I'm also addicted to coffee
and Diet Coke.
Deal.
Chocolate and coffee is just one of those combinations that you know with every last fiber of your being, from your head to your toes, is more right than anything else in the world. 
Okay.
Maybe that was kind of a lot.
But still.
I've been on a homemade bread making kick.  Mostly because I'm the cheapest person on earth, partly because I have too much time on my hands, and partly because I just like it.  I used this recipe from a blog I love, Alexandra's Kitchen, but mine did not turn out as beautifully as hers did.  Probably because in an attempt to be "healthy" I substituted half whole wheat flour.  I also used two bread pans instead of the pyrex bowls she uses.  I don't think mine could have been any flatter. 
But that's okay.  It still tastes great!  If anyone has tips on how to more successfully substitute whole wheat flour in bread recipes... I'm obviously all ears.  Maybe adding wheat gluten?  and now I'm just trying to sound like I know what I'm talking about.  I swear I'm a good cook.  Please follow me. Hehe :)
Anyways this morning I woke up to ANOTHER a beautiful Cleveland snowfall.  Which I realize you can barely see in this picture... but do you really want to see it?  Spare yourselves.  I knew I needed that chocolate/coffee combo now more than ever.  So I sliced off a couple pieces of that loaf of bread, topped it with some pb and chocolate chips, and zapped it in the microwave. 
Shoot.  This is good.  Sorry thighs.
