Today we celebrate the greatest substance known to man — chocolate. Today is International Chocolate Day.

Celebrate today by enjoying a piece of chocolate (or two, or three…), a chocolate martini, perhaps, or really anything chocolate. You can also visit International Chocolate Day’s Facebook page. And, if you’re in Boston, hit up the Bristol Lounge in the Four Seasons Hotel for International Chocolate Day specials (San Francisco’s Ghirardelli Square had their celebration yesterday, but you can still visit).

So go ahead and indulge in some chocolate today, guilt free. I know I will, today also happens to be my birthday (feel free to send presents, chocolate, or otherwise, my direction)! =)
