“Eating Chocolates and Dancing in the Kitchen”  by Tom Plummer is a 2 hour and 54 minute audio book, that talks about the general ups and downs of being married, from freshly married to having been married over twenty or thirty years, even more. What I found interesting in this mp3 book, that I haven’t found previously in other marriage books, is the
general ability that Tom Plummer has to laugh at himself, the scrapes that he gets into, and the relationships around him. No matter what is going on at the time, in almost every situation, he has been able to see the humor in hindsight and bring that out.

“Eating Chocolates and Dancing in the Kitchen” by Tom Plummer is the most refreshingly fun and light hearted way of looking at a spouse and seeing them for who and what they are.  It is a great way of “not seeing” the faults that can sometimes cause rifts in relationships, particularly young married relationships. This is definitely one that I would recommend for newlyweds, and also those who may be wanting a fresh perspective on marriage. I did this review because of the title, but now I am glad, as I have a new appreciation for my husband through listening to the antics of Tom Plummer and his wife.  I am realizing that if I see the humor in situations and not get too bogged down by semantics, my marriage will be happier than I ever thought possible.
