As oatmeal-chocolate chip cookies cool in the kitchen, we are setting up our delicious blog. How did we decide upon "Morsels of Chocolate?"
From the time we first discussed creating this blog, we have tossed around various ideas for a name. We had thought about using a portion of a Bible verse, but the one we thought of had already been taken. We thought about combining our names, but it sounded too boring. Since one of us speaks French and the other a little Spanish, we thought about finding a food word that was the same in both languages. But the Internet yielded no results.
Now, together again for the first time in two months, we were determined to finally create our blog. Seated in the kitchen (where else?) baking the aforementioned cookies, we hit upon the word "Morsels" followed immediately, of course, by the notion of "Chocolate!"
And thus, our blog was born.

Ah, but you found a word that is common to many languages: Chocolate! It is the fourth food group.
Of course you know that the word originated with the Aztecs (xocolatl, pronounced with a very strong, guttural 'h' at the beginning), and means "bitter water" or something along that line.
And I await tomorrow to savor those cookies (since you would not let us sample them at supper tonight)! ;)
I thought there were five food groups anyway...? That makes chocolate #6! ;P

Sounds delicious! The name is great and I can't wait for the chocolatey recipes! :-) (I really think Mocha Truffle cookies should be shared with the world sometime, by the way...)
