Chocolate has landed!

Chocolate I met a package from Minnesota with a little trepidation after having my credit card stolen this summer and jokers sending me nonsense stuff (magazine subscriptions, diet pills, business cards, toner cartridges).  I knew I didn't order anything from Circuits something-or-other in Minnesota.  But wait, didn't my chocolate swap partner live there as well?  Why by golly, she did!  Karen sent me the most wonderful array of chocolately goodness, along with a cute card and sewing themed notepad.  There were chocolate caramel pretzels, a chocolate raspberry bar, peanut butter cups, sunflower seeds, raspberry dipping sauce, peppermint biscotti bites, peppermint bark, and more.  Oh my - so much good stuff!  My kids and I dove right into the little truffle-like things.  DS had Hot Fudge and DD and I had the Raspberry - to die for!  My other son declined - he is not a fan of sweets.  Obviously switched at birth, don't you agree?   Thank you Karen for the nice surprise, and Sharon for hosting this fun swap!

  1. Hey you. What a cool package! I knew I should have signed on for that chocolate swap! I drowned my sorrows in a Peppermint Mocha at Starbucks this mornings, thinking that since I hadn't participated in the bit Chocolate Swap Extravaganza, the calories surely wouldn't count. My jeans feel a teensy bit tight tonight, but I am trying not to think about it.

  2. Glad it was an authentic package! I love your Opening Day. It's one of my many UFO's awaiting my return. I have a long list of New year's resolutions brewing.
