‘Tis the season to eat whatever we want, conveniently forget about the exercise bike downstairs, and – most importantly – watch our favorite Christmas movies while eating whatever we want! If your kryptonite of “naughty” foods is chocolate and other confections, you will want to make plans to attend this super-sweet Colorado chocolate festival:

Taking place Saturday, December 14th (2019) at the Colorado Springs Event Center is the one-of-a-kind Holiday Chocolate Festival, which advertises a whopping 30,000-square-feet of “Chocolate and Holiday Fun!”
