Olympic programming what it is, one channel seems to be showing an endless marathon of Forrest Gump. You can blame that.
On the plus side, every night when I get home, there is Curling on the tv. It’s like a dream come true… well, except for the poor showing of the American’s. I mean the men’s team… sure… they came out of nowhere and maybe, they weren’t quite ready, but I’ve been watching Debbie McCormick curl for years, and she is much better than this!!! Oh well, what are you going to do? Grab for another piece and hope for caramel, I suppose…
I think many chocolatiers, if not all of them, use the “drizzle” of chocolate on the top as a sort of code to let one know what sort of filling is in each chocolate. I’ve even seen some chocolate samplers where on the inside of the box cover, there’s a “map” showing what sort of chocolates are nestled in each little space.
This is very true, but almost makes things worse. I mean, you open up the box with a certain sense of excitement only to immediately have your will crushed as the map clearly shows there’s only six pieces in the entire box that you would actually enjoy… At least the other way, there’s the hope of something better…
Or you could just skip the samplers and go to a chocolatier and pick out exactly what you want.
I know, I know, it takes the adventure out of it. X D
Yes, *I* can, but what happens when someone hands you a box, eh? No choices… no freedom… oh… a turtle!
Is it ok to put it back?
Oh, and I just noticed the brand name. Nice!
Oh! I just noticed the brand name. Nice!
Well, Joe, I know that if I try to put one back my wife is always happy to give me a swift smack to the back of the head…
