I hope the year is off to a great start for everyone!
One of my favorite discoveries of 2012 was a new kind of chocolate:
My husband brought these back from a business trip to London. The packaging was so pretty I almost didn’t want to open them (but somehow managed to).
They’re from Rococo Chocolates, and they’re amazing. My daughter, who is six now and (maybe, possibly) loves chocolate even more than I do, sensed the enormity of this gift – chocolates from thousands of miles away – and together we ate a piece every night.
A writer friend also recently sent a box of these salted caramels from Montana, which I’m addicted to now:
The other day, my daughter ate a chocolate, a caramel, and took a bath with chocolate-scented soap and said, “This is the best day ever in the whole world!”
It doesn’t get much better than a day with a caramel and two kinds of chocolate. Happy New Year!
