A Lot of Chocolate; A Lot of Madness

Source: spreadshirt.co.uk via Hello_Ladies on Pinterest   It’s Chocolate Madness day – one of my favorite days of the year. Chocolate Madness is a fundraiser for NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts, an advocate for privacy and a woman’s right to choose. Tickets are still available: call 617-556-8800 x14 until 3 p.m. today. Remaining tickets will be available at the door for $50. At Chocolate Madness, held inBoston’s Cyclorama, pro-choice supporters join together with top local pastry chefs, premier food critics, and celebrity chefs  for an evening of endless chocolate delights in support of reproductive choice. A panel of judges (including yours truly) will choose the top chocolate entry in five categories. Funds raised will ensure Massachusetts remains a safe haven for choice and reproductive liberty in one of the most anti-choice political climates in a generation.  Massachusetts is not immune to the attacks on reproductive rights sweeping the nation. A direct result of having lost 12 pro-choice seats in the 2010 elections, this current legislative session saw four new anti-choice bills introduced in the Commonwealth. NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts is working to defeat all anti-choice legislation and elect pro-choice legislators. Now more than ever we need to protect our reproductive rights. Visit NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts to learn more about how you [...]

Chocolate Madness

Yesterday someone asked me, “What is Chocolate Madness?” My response, “What isn’t Chocolate Madness?” Chocolate Madness is:  My childhood. A medical diagnosis. An awesome NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts fundraiser at which I have had the honor of being a judge for the last two years. Chocolate Madness was held last night at the fabulous Cyclorama in Boston. Local restaurants and bakeries competed in several categories (I judged Light as Air: Chocolate Served in Crust) and then shared their treats with hundreds of partygoers. The funds from the event are used to aid the work of NARAL Massachusetts which includes supporting  pro-choice candidates and platforms, protecting reproductive rights and engaging activists on college campuses. And who won the Chocolate Madness competition? Who cares? It was chocolate – and choice! Everyone was a winner last night. For more on NARAL visit their website.
