Chocolate Party - Giveaway!

I had my Hershey's Bliss party tonight. (Through Houseparty.com. It's an interesting concept, especially to an old advertising veteran like myself. Check it out.) Basically, Hershey's sent me nine bags of their new Bliss line of chocolates. All I had to do was have a party and share the chocolate with my friends. Done and done. And yummy.

I of course forgot to take pictures during the party. We were too busy gabbing and eating all the yummy chocolate. But I did get a few good shots of the goodies before the guests arrived.

Fruit tray to go along with the chocolate dip (made from the Bliss chocolate, of course!)

The chocolate dip and another tray of goodies for dipping. (Mmmmm...)

Cowboy Caviar and Lime Tostitos (You know, something salty to cleanse the palate from all that chocolate!) There are Buckeyes in the background. Why Buckeyes? Because they are yummy and I lurve them.

Some of the decorations. I also had a vase of flowers on the table, but didn't get a picture. Oh well, you know what flowers look like.

Not a bad spread, right? (It was yummy, if I do say so myself. And I do.)

Well, despite our best efforts, I still have A LOT of chocolate left over. So, it's time for my second Guess The Number Contest! Woo-hoo! (You know you love it.)

But I thought I'd do things just a bit differently this time. Instead of guessing the number of chocolates in some jar, this time I want you to guess how many chocolates make one pound.

Yes, I am a geek. I got out my kitchen scale, plopped the pail on (and zeroed it out, of course, so it doesn't count as part of the weight) and added enough chocolates to make one pound.

Post a comment and let me know how many chocolates you think there are in a pound. The person with the closest number (over or under) will get all the chocolatey goodness. Mmmm...

You have until midnight Wednesday. Happy guessing!

p.s. No, Lance, you cannot enter this contest. The idea is to get the chocolates out of the house.
