In the Hive

This past weekend we went on quilt retreat in Lititz, Pa and did the chocolate walk. There were chocolate samples available at 29 of the shops! Chocolate Mice Jean enjoying her chocolate sundae! The chocolate display at Wilbur Chocolates below is entirely edible!

Thomas and Daddy found this bar for me last night at Wegmans! It really is an intense dark chocolate, just like the wrapper says - if you are used to milk chocolate, you will not like this one!

I had to get my own chocolate!

I tried two new things today (not at the same time)! Both were good!

Michael must have known I needed a little rescuing today!

Enough said.

I opened my birthday chocolate early! Look how pretty it is!!!

My Dad has clearly been reading my blog! He and my stepmother sent me a early birthday surprise from Oregon - yummy! Maybe it will distract me from the fact I will turn 40 this year! Thanks Dad and Sue!

This time Michael brought me home .... and himself, course!

My friends brought over a chocolate cream pie from wegmans for a treat, too bad Michael is in Bakersfield again!

More Pictures ...

Dinner was good at The Chart House, but we can't afford to do that trip often! Mike and I split an appetizer of Coconut Crunchy Shrimp. We both had the salad bar. My main course was Cashew Crusted Sole with roasted vegetables. Michael had the Flounder special with artichokes and veggies. All with a nice bottle of wine. For dessert, we finally had the famous Hot Chocolate Lava Cake. It was very good, but very rich!

Michael and Thomas brought this chocolate home from Wegmans last night. Between the five of us, it did not last long!

Andrew's friend Geert sent us some chocolates from Belgium. They all had a sea theme - seahorses, shells, prawns, and mussels. They taste great! Thank You Geert!

This week's chocolate bar is a bit risque!

I haven't posted a chocolate bar in a while! Michael got me this one last week and I just opened it. Yum!

It speaks for itself!

A new chocolate bar Michael got me with a very interesting blend of tastes!

What a fun day. I got the boys a HUGE Whitman's Sampler. Michael bought me a lovely bouquet of flowers. Andrew made chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. Our elderly neighbors also surprised us and gave us a bouquet of flowers for helping them out when they were having health issues.
