I'm just as glad not to be overly interested in it, for myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Wait, George Lucas named the swamp planet after a cocoa drink?
Just like he named an aquatic alien species after squid.
Now I'm getting hungry....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Well, that is a good looking tin. I can see how it might be magical.

I've had the Williams-Sonoma peppermint stuff. It's awfully good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I haven't tried the xocolatl stuff, as peppers and I are unmixy things. The stirring jingle thingy sounds fun though. As you say, it might work with anything you stir! I do want to try the chai, though.
And this is what I get for paying insufficient attention what we use is actually this, the unsweetened version. We add turbinado or regular brown sugar sometimes, or a little white sugar. But this way we control the amount.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If I weren't short on milk (and don't think my stomach deserves cream right now), I'd be chugging cocoa right now. As is, I ordered some of the unsweetened Dagoba. I'd love to taste the spiced stuff, but I'm not sure enough of it to buy 8oz.
Hokay, orange Gatorade is way better than yellow.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
My neighbor made her own cocoa mix for me this Christmas. It was awesome, and she gave me the recipe, but I am too lazy to make it myself, so the pretty canister is sitting on my counter, empty and sad.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm pretty sure the fictional planet came before the chocolate.
Now I shall Google or go mad!

Tom Hardy, NSFW. He should do a movie with Ewan. And puppies.

Well, according to Wikipedia:
The name Dagoba is a Sinhalese corruption of dhatu-garbha, a Sanskrit word for stupa. (The similarly-named fictional Dagobah in the Star Wars universe was derived from the same inspiration.)
