ChocoHoliday

I've never really noticed this before...but chocolate cycles with the holidays. And it seems any old holiday will do. I mean, I never would have predicted that Office Assistants Day would be a crazy week in the shop for gift baskets and chocolates. Every boss in Potsdam wanted a box of chocolates for their office! I'm not complaining, mind you, but I just never foresaw that.

But businesses can't survive on holiday sales alone. You can't just do good business at Christmas and expect to be open in July. So all these little holidays are important to a healthy chocolate business. I mean, think of all the little holidays there are. Not just Office Assistants Day...what about Talk Like a Pirate Day, or Boss's Day, or Speak Pig Latin Day, or Opening Day, or Closing Day, or Run Around the Park Naked Day...okay, so I made some of those up...

My point is that every day should be a chocoholiday. Every day, some one is born: That's a birthday! Doesn't every day deserve to be celebrated...and celebrations demand chocolate! Why should people only treat themselves on Federal Holidays?
