New Word

Tonight I learned a new word, theobromine, from my sister.

I particularly like this part of the Wikipedia entry:

Theobromine has very different effects on the human body from caffeine; it is a mild, lasting stimulant with a mood improving effect, whereas caffeine has a strong, immediate effect and increases stress


because now, instead of just cutting back on coffee, I feel justified in eating more chocolate!
